Book Reviews of The Case for Christ for Kids
Book Review: Good book to read with your children
Summary: 3 Stars
This is a pretty valuable book for an upper elementary or middle school aged student, but it's not what I'd classify as an easy read. Strobel is an excellent communicator and very good writer, but he's still dealing with a difficult subject - is Jesus Christ the Son of God or not? Strobel looks at the evidence from his background as a legal editor - presenting the facts and letting the persuasiveness of these facts speak for themselves!
Strobel does a good job of not only presenting the argument, but also anticipates the question or response to each argument and attempts to counter each without making this a 400-page book! He presents evidence for the person of Jesus from the Bible and then gives evidence from outside the Bible for the authenticity and veracity of the Bible itself! Strobel then looks at the various prophecies fulfilled by Jesus and then the actual claims of Jesus himself as to his true identity. He also examines the concept that the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus is either the greatest hoax ever or the greatest truth of history.
I thought the book was great for the younger reader - good illustrations, good critical thinking involved and well-written. The only problem I had is the very last page of the entire book - Strobel has one line in there that I think he should have left out - "There are many roads to take. And in the end you will find out that all roads lead to the same place." That one statement seemed counter to the concept that he painstakingly demonstrated in the rest of the book - that there is only one road that leads to salvation, and that is through the person of Jesus Christ. I hope I'm only reading this final page incorrectly, but I just can't seem to figure out why he'd include this seemingly insignificant story at the end of an otherwise outstanding resource for children.
