The words we say matter in a HUGE way to God, and they have tremendous power over our lives and the lives of those around us.
This 4-week Bible study for kids covers one of the most powerful issues we face: controlling our tongue. The Bible shows us how to choose life or death.
Why you'll love this Bible study
Whether you already know you want to work harder at controlling your tongue or you haven’t quite decided on that yet, there’s a lot in this Bible study for you to learn. First, we will explore the power our tongue has—to do both good and evil. Then, I'll show you 10 positive effects of controlling our tongue, called FRUITS. Finally, we will learn simple ways to remember all we’ve learned and tame our tongue even when it’s hard to say the right things.

My girls really enjoy this study, ages 4 and 7. My oldest, for her birthday, after discussing our tongue bringing life or death, wished that her tongue would only speak of good things! It definitely got through to her! They both enjoyed the activities and the power truths!
I was on the search for Bible studies for kids that dealt with specific topics and this was exactly what I was needing! My 7yo loves doing it and I love how beautiful it is and the high quality of the products!
We have been doing this Bible study with our kids. My step son, who is 12 years old is very guarded with his emotions. After one of the studies I prayed that God would show us things we need to ask forgiveness for and heal our hearts from others who have harmed us with their words. We then spent three minutes in silence. He started to weep uncontrollably. Holy Spirit moved and is still moving. Thank you for being a conduit of Jesus’s love!
Raise them up and the way that they should go ....
We did this as a family devotion with our kids. They don't always talk the nicest to each other and this study has helped point out better ways for them to communicate with each other.
We did this with our neighbors over the summer. The kids all enjoyed it and we all (myself included) learned a lot!
My daughter and I both loved this little devotional. It has a good balance of scripture, teaching, and fun things for the child to do. We enjoyed incorporating this devotional into our morning bible time. I would definitely buy other studies from Not Consumed and highly recommend this to others!
I bought the fruit of the tongue study for our 3 kids (16,14,11) we tried to do it all together but found out quickly that they got much more out of the study doing it in their own. Especially my 11 yo girl. She tells me all about each of her lessons and what she’s learned. The best was when she came to me and said she learned that if she gets mad she should use wise words when she’s talking to herself. She should say to herself that she’s stupid or dumb but instead use wise words. :) this revelation has changed her heart and it is seen from the outside. We are so grateful to not consumed for making these beautiful studies. I highly recommend it for your family.
I cannot say enough wonderful things about this study. The
Lord asked me to mentor my friend’s adopted daughter (12 years old) since we know she is struggling with some things from her past. She struggles with verbal outbursts and this study is helping her so much. I love that her family can also see a positive change in her already! Thank you so much!
