Have you ever wondered exactly what God said in the Book of Genesis? Not what others said about Him, or what was written about Him — but His actual spoken words?


Our new Bible Study Workbook, "God Said… in the Book of Genesis," is designed to help readers of all ages engage directly with God's voice as recorded in Scripture. This workbook is unique in its approach: every time God speaks in Genesis, His words are printed in red text, making it easy to focus on and reflect upon His divine statements.


A Focused Bible Study Experience

This workbook is ideal for:

  • Sunday School teachers and students

  • Youth Bible study groups

  • Kids' ministry leaders

  • Individuals seeking a deeper understanding of God’s Word


By concentrating solely on the words God Himself spoke, readers will discover a powerful, spiritually enriching way to study the Bible. Each chapter in Genesis where God speaks is highlighted, giving special attention to His commands, blessings, promises, questions, and conversations.


Whether you're preparing a youth Sunday School lesson or leading a family devotional, this tool offers a clear and engaging way to explore what God actually said — not just what was said about Him.


Why Focus on God’s Spoken Word?

In the Book of Genesis, God's words carry more than just historical or theological weight — they are the very foundation of creation. With a single command, light was formed. With intentional speech, the universe was shaped, life was established, and humanity was given purpose. God's Word is not just instruction; it's power.


When God speaks, things happen. The act of speaking is itself divine — revealing not only what God does but who He is.


The Power of Red-Letter Text

Many Bibles print Jesus' words in red in the New Testament. This workbook takes a similar approach with God’s words in Genesis. Seeing God’s words in red text immediately draws the reader’s attention and invites thoughtful reflection. It becomes easier to meditate on specific phrases, understand God's intent, and apply His principles to daily life.


Imagine your students or children opening the Bible and instantly seeing what God said about creation, sin, blessing, covenant, and destiny — all highlighted for clarity. It’s a great way to spark curiosity and faith, especially in young readers.



Teaching the Next Generation

This resource is particularly helpful for:


  • Youth Sunday School Lessons: Help teens grasp the importance of God's authority from the very beginning of the Bible.

  • Kids’ Lessons: Engage children with color-coded Scripture that makes learning fun and meaningful.

  • Adult Study Groups: Dive deep into theological reflection on God’s character, promises, and plan for humanity.


The storybook encourages reading, writing, and responding to Scripture. It includes space for note-taking, journaling, and answering thought-provoking questions about what God said — and why it still matters today.


Why It Matters

Understanding and reflecting on God's spoken Word in Genesis gives believers a strong foundation for interpreting the rest of Scripture. God's voice in Genesis is the voice of:

  • Creation

  • Command

  • Covenant

  • Compassion

  • Correction


By studying His words closely, readers gain insight into God's nature, His expectations for humanity, and His unfolding plan of redemption.


Whether you're a teacher, student, or lifelong learner, God Said... in the Book of Genesis is a powerful resource that brings clarity, depth, and spiritual growth.
