Are your kids learning “Bible stories,” or are they learning all of God’s Story?
The Bible is not a compilation of stories we can cherry-pick our morals from. Instead, those stories fit together into the most incredible story—God's story!
In this Bible Study, we will embark on an incredible journey through the Old Testament, discovering the faithfulness of God through the lives of His people, and our desperate need for a Savior. We're not here to explain every detail, but instead want to teach you how to see God's story, asking yourself as you read, "what is God doing here?"
In this 6-week study of the Old Testament for kids, teens, and families, you will:
This Bible study is available in 5 age levels from pre-k through parent and is meant to be done individually, then discussed together. (More on our family Bible study model here.)
This study is part of our Foundations Series, designed to help your family build a solid foundation of knowledge and relationship with God. Learn more HERE.

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.
Studies with 20 lessons:
Obey
Do Right
Fruit of the Tongue
My Brother's Keeper
Navigating Friendships
A Content Heart
Becoming a Servant
Making Peace
Studies with 25 lessons:
In the Garden

I love this study! This is perfect for our family. I love how they come in different age levels including a parent guide so we can follow along. They are easy for the kids to understand and learn more about Our amazing God. They also come with fun little stickers, challenge cards and bookmark. I can't wait to order more of the other studies. These also make a great add on to our homeschool curriculum.
Thank you for tackling the OT/NT not just hot topics!
I bought one of these at the youth and one at the junior level. I love that my kids will have to think for themselves and can't just copy/paste from each other. But then because we are studying the same thing they can have a discussion about the topic. Thank you for branching out and offering different levels.
Loving the diff. Age levels for these studies! The lessons are fun and don’t take super long to do which is great especially for my younger kids! They really enjoy the coloring activities and the stickers too!
I got this study for my 10 and 8 year old. It has the perfect amount of studying to keep them interested without being too much like work. Love the way it is set up and how there are two separate studies for the Old and New Testament.
I bought God's Story Old Testament (pre-k) for my kids to do during lent season. They LOVE it! They are 4 and 7 and are both memorizing the books of the Bible in a fun way. I will definitely be purchasing the rest of the series soon. Thanks so much Not Consumed!
This is a great study. It goes over all the Books of the Bible, one lesson per book for a total of 31 days with 1 introduction and one final review. This is not a Bible story book or book about people of the Bible, but instead, it introduces the main concept of each book in a simple manner. I love the attention to detail from this company. The language is simple for a kid to understand. You read all the text, and it guides you really well. It relates the child to real life examples and application. It asks you to read 2 to 3 verses a day. After reading and discussion, your child can complete the activity, which is drawing or coloring, but it makes them think. Then the book offers a very short and simple prayer and your kid peels the sticker for the book and places it in the bookshelf at the beginning of the book. I purchased the primary level for my kindergartener because I want him to learn and understand the Bible better than I did when I was his age. This is a great way to start teaching your kid in a very short, engaging, fun and real way. Purchase this study, it is a great, well thought product!
