Congratulations! Your child has just surrendered their life to Jesus! This is such a joyful and exciting thing! But just because your child has made a profession of faith doesn't mean they know how to walk with Jesus. Now that they're a Christian, it's time to learn what this really means and what it looks like in their life every day!
I Have Decided is a Bible study created to help new believers understand how to live a Christian life by exercising their faith. Through studying God's Word, your child will:
Packed with scripture and truth, this study is a great resource to help your new believer work out their salvation and grow in newness of life!
This Bible study is available in 4 age levels from the primary level through the parent level and is meant to be done individually, then discussed together as a family. (More on our family Bible study model here.)
Nothing will be mailed to you as this is a digital product. The Bible study fun pack does NOT come with the digital files. You can print the study and staple it together. We like to use fun duct tape to secure the staples and keep them from poking.

What version of the Bible do you use?
I study and write using the KJV and ESV Bibles. However, my studies are written with the intent that children and families will look up Scripture in the Bible of their choice, with specific attention taken to assure questions can be answered from a variety of translations. So you should be able to use whatever version your family prefers. It's my passion to see kids opening the Bible themselves, so we've been very intentional about this.
What do you believe?
I believe that the Bible is the absolute authority in matters of faith and practice. It's 100% true, with no exceptions or figurative sections. I believe in the verbal, plenary inspiration of Scripture; in one God eternally existing in three Persons; in the creation of all things, including man, as the direct act of God; in eternally secure salvation by grace through faith in the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ; in the incarnation and virgin birth of Christ, and in His bodily resurrection; in the personal, bodily, premillennial return of the Lord Jesus Christ and His millennial reign on earth.
What age level should I buy?
This is by far the most common question we get around here. Please check out this video. I'll show you the differences between the levels and walk you through how to use them as a family!
How many copies should I buy?
If you are buying digital, you only need one copy. If you plan to share with people outside of your home (like a group, co-op, church, etc.), you will need a site license to do so. Those can be found on each product's page.
If you are buying softcover, you should purchase one copy per child. This will enable children to write in the book, as it is designed to record their drawings and responses to the Word.
How long are your studies?
Each Bible study is a slightly different length, ranging from 20 lessons to 28 lessons. We suggest doing one lesson a day. Most kids find that it takes about 15 minutes a day.

So excited to go through this with my kids! My nephew and my daughter just got saved recently, and my oldest has had experience with the Holy Spirit recently settle. This is going to be very vital in their walk with Christ. I have looked through the material and it seems, so good! I really feel like this is going to help them!
As with all the NC studies they are so good at helping even us parents learn
I've been a long time NC customer and once again they never fail to help teach not only my children but me as well. I highly recommend this BS and any of their other products.
