In a world full of constant distractions, entertainment, and instant gratification, even adults are up against a lot when it comes to staying engaged with what is being taught at church. Our kids and teens face similar distractions. Plus, some struggle with sitting still, understanding big words, and many other totally normal things.
The Sermon Notebook is here to help you get more out of the sermon!
Available in three age levels: primary (ages 5–7), junior (ages 8–12), and teen/adult.
Nothing will be mailed to you as this is a digital product. You can print off the file and staple it together or punch holes and put it in a binder.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE THE SERMON NOTEBOOK
Inside, you'll find an age-appropriate note-taking page, a prayer list, and even a place to record your favorite Bible verses. My favorite part is the space to record your personal testimony. It's a precious keepsake for your kids as they grow in Christ!
The Sermon Notebook is nice and compact, measuring 6"x 9" with 104 pages for taking notes. It's the perfect companion size for your Bible. There are four versions of the Sermon Notebook: Primary, Junior, Youth in Gray, and Youth in Teal.
The Primary level is written for young children ages 5–7. With a simple design including spaces to tally up words they hear in a sermon and places to draw, this sermon notebook will help engage younger kids without overwhelming them.
The Junior level is written for strong readers and writers, typically ages 8–12. Simple prompts will help them look for themes and specific elements of the sermon, like the title and main passage, as well as the people and events discussed. They can then record main points and their own thoughts in the lined space on the next page.
The Gray Sermon Notebook is written for teens and adults and has a more simple and minimalist design. This journal includes a header on every other page for recording the date, sermon, Scripture, and speaker. Pages alternate between lined and bullet-journal style, giving you plenty of space to take notes and write out your thoughts as well as personal application.
The Teal Sermon Notebook is written for ages teens and adults and has beautiful floral designs throughout its pages. This journal includes a header on every other page for recording the date, sermon, Scripture, and speaker. Pages alternate between lined and bullet-journal style, giving you plenty of space to take notes and write out your thoughts as well as personal application.
I loved these when I first got them for my kids and I’m thrilled that there is also a version for adults. What a great way to take notes on sermons and help keep your mind focused.
Great way to keep our 9.5 and 8 year olds attention focused on the sermon. I also made a short copy for my 3.5 year old inserting a couple of blank pages in between sermon pages so he can feel big and important with his own book. He uses it to practice writing letters and make pictures.
We haven’t started using them yet.
We are looking forward to use these in conjunction with other items we have..
Yup! My boys are wrigglers, talkers and full on ball of distracted mess when it comes to sitting for more then 2 minutes. I was hesitant to buy this, but love all the NC products…so I did it.
Welp! Once again! NC has done it! My boys actually remembered what the sermon was about, and bonus I didn’t need to drag them out by their ears as I wished death by embarrassment was a real thing.
Buy it sisters! Enjoy your coffee and sermon in church while looking like a full fledged super star mana! Boom!
The format and content is so clear and concise! This is a perfect introduction to note taking. The file printed beautifully. Thank you!
We’ve found these notebooks to be a great tool for getting our older kids to actually listen to the sermon and for our younger kids to have a bit of fun. They love counting to see how many times certain words were said. And it helps all of them remember what the sermon was about so we can actually talk to them about it at home.
This definitely keeps our Middle School students focused. They use it and it gives us a great opportunity to discuss the sermons at a later time. We all get so much more out of it by using this tool. However, when they found out there were bound copies of the notebook, they wanted them right away. I bought the digital copy as a "tester" to see how we all like it. And like it we do! So we let them use copies for 2 months to make sure it wasn't just a honeymoon phase, but they have been faithful, so I'm buying the bound notebooks now. It was good motivation and they deserve it.
It’s not overwhelming trying to read a bunch of questions while listening to a sermon. It keeps the child focused on the message and while they think about certain words. Perfect!
