If God is good and in control, how could He let this happen to me?

Unfortunately, this is a question all of us will face at one point in our lives, and kids are no exception. They experience the same hard and difficult things adults do, but they don't have the strong biblical foundation needed to truly deal with them.

With Making Lemonade, children will:

Be offered help based on God's truth

Learn that they can trust God's work in their lives

Be guided through difficult times by dealing with emotions and learning to trust God's truth

Be offered help based on God's truth

Learn that they can trust God's work in their lives

Be guided through difficult times by dealing with emotions and learning to trust God's truth

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.

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.

Easy and Meaningful

I am using this study booklet with a discipleship group at our homeschool group. Although it is set up for family use, it has been very meaningful for myself as the leader and my teenage girls being discipled. The study and questions help us to go deep into God's Word and into each others lives. I am able to pour into these girls in a real way through the set up and intentionality of the study.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE!

I truly LOVE these studies. I use as part of my homeschool and my children learn so much from them…truth be told, I’m learning some too. I love the questions that are asked as well that make the kids think about themselves in relation to the Bible stories and really bring it to them on a personal level. Everything is biblically accurate and easy to follow. The lessons are easy to understand and easy to teach. I will be buying ALL of the content from Not Consumed.

Great conversation starters!

Our kids have loved this devotion. It isn't too long so they stay engaged. It has also created great conversations and even helped me learn more about my kids and what they are feeling. It has been fun getting together in our homeschool group as well and seeing the kids encourage each other as well.

Just What We Need

We have been dealing with unexpected health issues with my son since last summer. I got this study for us to do together. It is hitting the nail on the head and helping us look at this trial from a different angle.

Looking forward to this one!

Everyone faces challenges - all through life. I'm really looking forward to doing this study with my kids to help prepare them for how to face what inevitably lies ahead. I'm confident this study will be beneficial like all the others we've done.

Doesn't Disappoint!

The content was spot on and much needed for our family. Thank you for this wonderful resource! Highly recommend!

Wow!

Our kids are learning so many great things from this study…most importantly about how faithful God is and for us to lean into Him and it’s just beautiful to follow along with them in this study! It’s been great for the kids and myself!

Amazing study

I love that this study tackles hard, but relevant topics. I bought the entire series and let my teens pick which ones they wanted to do. The results helped me to know what they were dealing with! And they LOVED the lemon squishy too.

Emotions Everywhere!

Looking forward to this study with my son. We love the way these studies are set up!
