Foundations of Faith is a Bible study for kids and teens unlike any of our other studies. Using a family Bible study format, this parent-led study will equip you to lead discussions on difficult issues and develop a statement of faith that will be a keepsake and a teaching tool for years to come.
Part 1 lays the foundation with a 10-lesson Bible study of the basics of the Christian faith. Each family member has lessons on his/her age-level to complete and then come together to discuss. We recommend getting a book for each family member.
Part 2 digs deep into 10 cultural issues kids and teens face in society today, such as the sanctity of life and marriage, media use, and purity.
You'll find a list of Bible verses to ponder, helpful resources, and questions to ask as a family. Space to record your family’s statement of faith regarding that issue is included as well.

Why you'll love this Bible study
The Bible calls us to teach our children diligently and you're certainly trying. But in the wake of disappointing court rulings and scandalous baby killing videos, the question must be asked: Do my kids REALLY know what the Bible says about this?
I found myself wondering the same thing after my daughter asked me a question I thought surely she knew the answer to. That day everything changed. I knew I had to give my kids the tools they need to stand strong and defend their faith. If I didn't, I'd find them eating out of the hands of wolves.
This study will help your family develop a statement of faith on crucial topics before it's too late. Let me make the process easy-peasy for you to start!
Rest assured, you are not told what to think about these very important issues, but are provided with Scripture, additional reading, and thoughtful questions to ponder as you consider each of the issues at hand. It's very important that families consider the facts as they develop their own statements of faith. The content was developed with a non-denominational flexibility to ensure that your family can have the reins.
Which Levels Are Available?
Different from our other Not Consumed studies, this study begins with our Parent Guide as the starting point. The Parent Guide is then supplemented with the Junior or Youth levels for your kids. This study is not available in the primary age level (ages 4-8), as the content may not be appropriate.
Each lesson has a consistent key truth, key Scripture, and central theme no matter what age level your kids are working in.
Each study in the family Bible study bundle also comes with a fun pack including verse cards, stickers, and a bookmark. A fun and conversational Bible study button is also included.
Parent Guide
Our parent guide is the perfect addition to help you easily facilitate family Bible study. Each day, you will progress through the same main ideas and key passages your kids will be studying. Plus, we've added parent tips along the way to help you lead discussion as a family. Having the whole family thinking on the same key truths of Scripture will create a more natural environment to talk about the Lord. We know you'll love it!
Help the Bible come to life for your kids through award-winning audio dramas. Foundations of Faith Bible study bundle makes an excellent faith-filled gift as it encourages spiritual growth through engaging Bible study, exciting audio drama, and daily truth reminders (that just so happen to look pretty cool).
This CD is supplemental and can be used before, during, or after your study. You decide!
The Captive (ages 8+)
Kidnapped by Algerian pirates, recent graduate Anselmo finds himself on a merciless slave ship heading to the auction block in a foreign country. Having escaped the cruelty of his first master and the death grip of the desert, Anselmo is taken captive by a new master, where he finds mercy as well as condemnation. This dramatic rendition of The Captive will whisk you into a world where the clash between Islam and Christianity brings certain destruction and death. But everything changes when Anselmo begins teaching the words of Jesus, as his life speaks louder than his words.
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. Please check out this video for more explanation on why this is so important!
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.

I am so pleased and greatful for this study. I originally was going to purchase the bundle for one age group, but decided on one title for the whole family and I'm glad I did! I had been looking for a while for something that my whole family could use and this was heaven sent! My kids 12 & 16 use theirs as part of their homeschool curriculum, then we all get together and discuss a couple topics on certain days. So far we've had great conversations around the foundation topics. I really love all the thought & work that was put into these from the fonts to design, articulation, even the packaging (very cute btw). We will definitely continue with the rest of the studies.
Ordered a few of the studies to give it a try since it appeared to be what I was looking for to add to our homeschool curriculum (kids are 9&7) Blown out of the water with how great it’s been so far!Love how the studies are set up and such great conversation starters. Almost completed Foundations Of Faith and I’m so pleased with this study that I’ve been sharing it with anybody that will listen!
I'm so glad we went with the Foundations of Faith study. My wife, 10 and 13 year old daughters and myself just finished lesson 3 on Sunday night and the questions/bible verses have led to great conversations. To see the girls learning more about Christ and what we believe is hard to describe, just joy and thankfulness. The times that we're living in today, nothing is more important than really understanding the truth, so thank you for this study. Looking forward to the rest of the lessons and whatever happens next.
I have been doing this Bible study with my husband and kids, and what a blessing it۪s been! Kim Sorgius has a wonderful gift of reaching adults and children alike in these studies. While we۪ve always talked to our kids about God and the Bible, this study has really challenged us to sit down as a family and come up with some very clear outlines of where we stand based on what the Bible says rather than just being influenced by other things like tradition, upbringing, or even people. Kim never pushes her opinion, but with this study she challenges us to find what God wants by asking questions and providing scripture for us to clearly see what the Bible says. I would absolutely recommend this study for every family. My husband and I both have really enjoyed it, and our kids look forward to doing it every single day and sitting down to discuss it each night.
This is wonderful for really delving in to what the foundation of your family’s beliefs are and why. It really opened up a dialogue between our whole family and caused us to dig deeper into our faith. Highly recommend as a great one to start out with.
I find that each day we need to be in constant communication with the Lord. I purchased FOUNDATIONS OF FAITH for my son and found my self as well taking advantage of the deep understanding of the importance to ALWAYS be godly, make godly decisions, and never forget to be in constant prayer.
This study is a great study for kids and parents. It honestly was a reminder for me to really reflect on how we are spending our time and if we are spending it to God’s glory or just spending it. We are just working on this study now and it is a great time to really focus in our what our family feels is right for our family and how God’s word aligns with our beliefs and how we can use our actions to live our our faith.
Help your children not only understand their faith, but the reasoning behind it! I love how this study equips our kids with not only the what, but the why.
