About Cold-Case Christianity for Kids:

Between the ages of 8 and 12, kids often start to wonder if Christianity is true.

In Cold-Case Christianity for Kids, detective J. Warner Wallace draws readers into the thrill of high-stakes investigation by showing them how to think rather than telling them what to think. In this children's companion to the bestselling Cold-Case Christianity, detective Wallace gets kids excited about testing witnesses, examining the evidence, and investigating the case for Christianity. Includes author illustrations and links to a website where kids can download activities, fill in case notes, and earn a certificate of merit.

Thoughts:


What do you get when a cold case investigator becomes curious about Jesus? Well, he noses around until he concludes that Jesus is truly the son of God.  Now that my son is 12 he thinks I should treat him as a man. Recognizing the fact that he is getting older and is no longer a young child has made me realize that my main job now is to teach him to think for himself. He needs to decide if his belief in Jesus is his own or if he is mimicking his parents faith. COLD-CASE Christianity For Kids gives children the opportunity to judge the case for Jesus for themselves.

My son's pros and cons about the book:


Pros

  • The fallacies regarding Jesus made me do some serious thinking.
  • I found most of the definitions to be very helpful and informative.
Cons
  • The book as a whole was too short, I feel it needed to be more in depth.
  • I didn't find it very exciting because I am someone who mainly enjoys reading about adventures.
As we discussed his pros and cons he told me that he believes the book is meant for younger readers. I asked him to rate the book from 1-5 and he gave it a three. I looked it over a bit and think that the book does a great job at teaching kids how to think like a detective so they can come to their own conclusion regarding their beliefs. I have to give it at least a four because it has been one of the few books that we could actually discuss in depth without any bickering. Purchase a copy on Amazon.
