Is there a King James edition of the reading or math books?

No. The six reading textbooks and the K–5 math student texts quote the New King James Version, and no King James edition of them is published. The published scope and sequence does print each week's Scripture as a reference for all six grades, so a family can read that week's passage from its own Bible, but the wording printed on the child's page is New King James.

Can I use The Hidden Word beside a curriculum from another publisher?

Yes. It is a standalone Scripture memory and quizzing program with its own order and its own mastery standard, and it is not tied to the paid membership or to the reading books. Every PDF in all four Collections, and all sixteen student packets, are free to download and open to everyone, and each Collection also comes as a single ZIP.

Can I make King James cards for the verses my family is already learning?

Yes, with the Bible Verse Card Maker, which is open to everyone and carries the King James Version in full. Choose a book, chapter, and start and end verse from the dropdown lists; a range splits so that every verse prints on its own card, up to forty cards in a deck. Print at actual size rather than fit-to-page, because scaling moves the dashed cut lines.

Do I have to pay to get the King James materials?

No. The Hidden Word and the Bible Verse Card Maker are free and open to everyone, as is the rest of the Apostolic Academy. The paid membership is All Access at $39 a month, cancel anytime, and it covers the reading and math curricula and the practice library for one household — none of which is King James.

What does it cost to print The Hidden Word at home?

The files cost nothing; paper and ink are the whole cost. Verse cards and the certificate print on cardstock, cards duplex and flipped on the short edge, and everything else prints on plain paper. Print the two-page registration test first and hold it to the light before spending cardstock. Answer keys print separately and are marked to be kept aside. Every file can also be read page by page on the site if you would rather not print it.

Curriculum

King James (KJV) homeschool curriculum and materials

One complete King James curriculum is published here — The Hidden Word, free — while the reading and math books quote the New King James Version, and this page says which materials are which.

Upper Room Study Guides — free Apostolic Bible studies — From the Faith Schooling curriculum

Is there a KJV homeschool curriculum here?

Partly, and the split is the thing to know first. One complete King James curriculum is published on this site: The Hidden Word, a four-level Scripture memory and Bible quizzing program, and it is free. The reading and math books are not King James. The statement of faith puts it in its own words: "Our academic programs quote the New King James Version. The Hidden Word, our Scripture memory program, uses the King James Version because Bible quizzing does."

So a King James family can take a whole sequenced memory program from here at no cost, and would be printing New King James wording if it also used the reading or math books. That is the decision, and it is better made before anything goes through a printer.

Which materials are King James, and which are not?

King James: The Hidden Word. It holds 223 selections — 216 memory verses and seven extended passages — across four Collections in order from Foundation to Ambassador, printing as 60 PDFs and 2,695 pages. Its verses are read programmatically from a checksummed public-domain King James text rather than typed in by hand. Every file downloads free and also opens page by page in the site's reader.

Your own wording: the Bible Verse Card Maker carries the King James Version and the World English Bible in full, and the Scripture Copywork Studio sets whatever text you type into it.

New King James: the six reading textbooks and the K–5 math student texts, the verse quoted on every page of this website with the publisher's credit, and the printable card and poster collections, including Scripture Seeds at 84 cards in 14 topical sets and Words of Truth at 14 full-page Scripture posters.

Checked against each material's own pages and files, 5 September 2026. The split is published on purpose: a family that cares about translation cares exactly.

Can a King James family still use the reading books?

Some families do, by using the reference rather than the printed verse. Every week in the reading curriculum pairs one phonics or word-study skill with one Bible hero, one virtue and one Scripture, and the published scope and sequence prints that week's Scripture as a reference: Kindergarten week 2 is 1 Samuel 3:9, week 3 is Genesis 2:15, and the table runs to week 36 in all six grades. A family reading from its own Bible has the week's passage without the book's wording.

What the reference does not solve is the verse text printed on the child's own page, in copywork and memory work inside the books. That is New King James. The complete teaching guide for every reading grade, and eight hand-picked sample pages of every grade, are open to everyone, so those pages can be read before any money changes hands.

How do I print King James pages for our own verse list?

The Bible Verse Card Maker is open to everyone and carries the King James Version in full. Pick a book, a chapter, and a start and end verse from dropdown lists read straight from the Bible text, so a reference cannot be mistyped or run past the end of a chapter; a range splits so each verse prints on its own card. Up to forty cards in a deck, at one, two, four, six or nine cards to a page, plain or illustrated, and the finished PDF downloads to your own computer. Its New King James option covers a curated set of 199 verses and prints King James wording outside that set, so watch the preview if exact wording matters.

The Scripture Copywork Studio builds manuscript or cursive practice pages from text you enter yourself. What you type stays in your browser and is not sent to Faith Schooling, so King James wording you supply prints as you supplied it.

Does Faith Schooling take a King James only position?

No such position is published, and it would be dishonest to imply one. The statement of faith holds the Bible to be the inspired, inerrant Word of God and the only God-given authority for doctrine, faith and practice, and it names no required translation. The reason given for The Hidden Word's King James text is practical rather than doctrinal: quizzing is done in King James, and the program's mastery standard is the verse word-perfect in that wording.

One thing is worth knowing before a King James household prints everything. By Many Witnesses, the free ten-volume church history in the Apostolic Academy, opens with a volume on how the New Testament text reached us: papyri, codices, text-types, the King James Version's textual base, and the three well-known passages the earliest manuscripts lack, stated plainly. If that discussion is one your family would not want opened, read Volume I yourself before handing the set to a child.

When to look elsewhere

If you want every subject printed in King James wording, this is the wrong publisher. There is no King James edition of the reading or math books, and the site says which translation each program uses rather than leaving it to be discovered after paying.

If you want a graded daily Bible and doctrine course for a Bible class, The Hidden Word is Scripture memory and quizzing, not that. It also teaches from a stated position: Faith Schooling's doctrinal baseline is the Articles of Faith of the United Pentecostal Church International (2023), and the later Collections take up the Godhead, the new birth and holiness from there. A family holding a different position can still use the reading and math instruction, and the statement of faith sets out exactly where the difference lies.

And Faith Schooling is an independent curriculum publisher for parent-led education, not an enrolling school. There is no accreditation, no teacher grading and no transcript service; families teach from the materials and keep their own records.
