FAQs

What do you believe?

We believe that the Bible is the absolute authority in matters of faith and practice. It's 100% true, with no exceptions or figurative sections. We 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. Read more here.
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?

You'll want to purchase one copy per child at their specific age level. This will enable children to study at their level and record their own drawings and responses to the Word.
We highly encourage you to make sure that each child can participate by having their own book on their own level. You can learn more about why in this video.
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.
What version of the Bible do you use?

There is no scripture written out in our studies, only references. When it comes to growing faith, it's crucial that kids look up passages in the Bible for themselves and our studies are written to help them do that!
We study and write using ESV, as well as a variety of translations. Special attention has been given to make sure kids can answer questions regardless of the translation they are using.

Great Advent Study

My three children and two of their cousins completed this study together for advent. I loved the focus on many different gifts we’ve been given by such a generous God! The gift stickers to countdown the days were a big hit with the kids.

Advent Curriculum

We absolutely loved the study! I used it as our Advent curriculum and our first year of homeschooling for our 6 year old. It gave us so many opportunities to talk about the story of Salvation And how that began at the manger. The gifts that were offered to us there and the gifts that we can offer to the Lord through the work that he's accomplished for us. We loved it! We will definitely be getting the Advent studies for next year!

Lovely

I enjoyed this study so much. It’s not too much that you can’t get through it each day or dread it. It’s the perfect length and perfect to lead up to CHRISTmas!

Excellent family study!

We purchased this to focus on through the month of December as part of our school day & it has been absolutely amazing to focus on the true meaning of Christmas and growing our faith as a family! We loved this study for all ages!

Gifts of the Manger is truly a gift

I bought the parent edition primarily to act as a basic Bible study for myself. This little study has brought attention to the endless mercy God has had on us since the beginning of time. He then showed us the most merciful act of giving us his son in human form to sacrifice his life for all our sin. I know this study is very basic but I’m new to the Bible and I find it just right for me.

Great Study!

Enjoying this study with my 9 and 5 year old kids. We like that the stickers are attached in the book so we don't keep misplacing them.

It teaches your family to appreciate more their spiritual gifts rather than the material ones

I LOVE this study. It comes with a nativity scene and 25 present stickers to fill. 25 lessons, one per day before Christmas. I appreciate how the study focuses on all the gifts God has given us and examples of the people around Jesus birth. Then, it focuses on our lives in a very tangible way. This study doesn't come with weekly challenges or outside stickers but it is worth it.

Another Amazing Gift

We haven't started the books yet, but we did take a peak and as always what a gift in a lesson! Can't recommend enough for the whole family! :)

Glad we are doing this study!

I am very glad we are doing this study together as a family! I ordered 1 parent guide, 2 junior guides, and 2 primary guides for my family. I took the suggestion to have each of us do our studies on our own; we take about 10 minutes to do this and then gather together to go through and discuss and complete study together. This works well for our family. I always preview the devotion the night before and I usually find a song to go with each day's lesson. A QR code to a song would be a nice addition so that it was already thought out and done for families. One thing that I find time consuming, but important for the flow of gathering together, is that I have to read (and remember) the different parts/questions in each level of guides. I understand that they are age level tailored, but still wish they were a little more similar for discussing together for me as the parent/leader. Another thing is that I almost wish there weren't 25 lessons! If we get behind a day or two (or three!), it feels hard to get caught up again. We will of course just continue with our study past Christmas, but some leeway with a few less lessons (no lesson on days we attend church, youth group, etc.) would feel less overwhelming! Overall, I am happy with the study and look forward to choosing more Bible studies from Not Consumed!!
