Description for The Radical Book for Kids: Exploring the Roots and Shoots of Faith
Review �As the father of four teens, I found this a fun, informative, and spiritually edifying resource.�Alongside telling us where weapons came from, young readers (and older ones) learn how to spend daily time with the Lord.�It�s not just about fun facts; it is a spark for discovery of God, his world, and our place in it.� - Michael Horton, Professor, Westminster Seminary California; author of�Core Christianity; host of the White Horse Inn broadcast � �I was only a dozen pages into this book before I found myself thinking, 'I wish I'd had this book when I was a kid' and 'I've got to get this book for my kids!' Highly recommended!' - Timothy Paul Jones, C. Edwin Gheens Professor of Christian Family Ministry, Southern Baptist Theological Seminary � �I don�t know how he does it, but in The Radical Book for Kids Champ Thornton seems to have mastered the art of communicating with kids, without talking down to them. Lots of topics are immensely important, like God�s attributes and our salvation; others just fun. I wish I had this book during my own childrearing years�and when I myself was a teenager.� - John Frame, Professor of Systematic Theology & Philosophy, Reformed Theological Seminary; author of History of Western Philosophy � �The Radical Book for Kids is like an encyclopedia of Truth. Thornton has done something magical here. He�s taken every aspect of the Christian faith, the Word we love, and the character of God and made it accessible to children. It�s everything you�d hope to know and teach in one place, even including stories of historical figures. I�m thankful my kids are still young, so I can use this book to teach them about the roots of our faith. The Radical Book for Kids is radical indeed�radically helpful, radically good.� - Trillia Newbell, Author of Enjoy (forthcoming, 2017), Fear and Faith, and United � �My wife and I only wish that this book had been available for our children and our grandchildren. It�s difficult in a few words to express my appreciation for the attractive and absorbing way it engages the young readers it has in view by highlighting Scripture�s pervasive focus on Christ and by showing the importance of the gospel and its implications for their lives. I commend it most highly.� - Richard�B. Gaffin, Jr., Professor of Biblical and Systematic Theology, Emeritus, Westminster Theological Seminary � �Champ gives children and their parents a gift in this book that is fun, practical, and theologically rich. It is a necessary explorer�s guide to the Bible, theology, biblical and church history, and life for boys and girls. It�s a tool for children to learn about God, His Word, His world, and themselves.�� - Justin S. Holcomb, Seminary professor; minister; author of God Made All of Me: A Book to Help Children Protect Their Bodies � �The Radical Book for Kids is like packaging that awesome Sunday school teacher you remember in a book.�You know, she was the amazing mom who made learning about God a ton of fun but did it with gospel truth that transformed lives.�Every family should have a copy of The Radical Book for Kids on their bookshelf�better yet, put it out like a plate of cookies on the coffee table and watch your kids devour it.�The most exciting part of all will be seeing your children grow in their passion for God and his Word.� - Marty Machowski, Family pastor; author of�The Ology,�The Gospel Story Bible,�Long Story Short,�and other gospel-rich resources for families � �I do not as a habit read books for children, at least I haven�t for several years now. However, I found Champ Thornton�s The Radical Book for Kids to live up to its name. It is unlike anything I remember reading to my children. The scope and content are indeed radically different than the normal storytelling style of so many others. Champ is able to communicate important and sometimes complicated matters in simple and attention-grabbing ways. I would be happy if my graduate students would come to me with the foundational knowledge of some of the issues addressed.� -Michael Barrett, Vice President for Academic Affairs/Academic Dean Professor of Old Testament, Puritan Reformed Theological Seminary �The Radical Book for Kids is one book that every family should have in their library. I cannot wait to read it with my children and learn more from it myself. Champ Thornton masterfully weaves together theology, biography, biblical truths, practical application, and interesting activities all in a book that is visual appealing and easy to read. I recommend this book for youth, parents, and new believers of all ages�it is a treasure trove of biblical insight and understanding.� - Melissa Kruger, Women�s Ministry Coordinator at Uptown Church PCA; author of�The Envy of Eve: Finding Contentment in a Covetous World�and�Walking with God in the Season of Motherhood Read more Review �Intriguing + edifying = the kind of book I want my kids reading. This is one of them.� - Andy Naselli, Assistant Professor of New Testament and Biblical Theology, Bethlehem College & Seminary � �As I paged through this book, I kept finding assorted facts and tips that never manage to make it into my Sunday school lessons or family devotions�but should! This is a wonder-filled book for kids to explore. They will learn, have fun, and be challenged to grow deeper in faith.� - Jack Klumpenhower, Author of Show Them Jesus; coauthor of The Gospel-Centered Parent and What�s Up? � �I have three daughters and I�m always on the lookout for solid books. Champ Thornton�s Radical Book fits the bill. It was an instant hit with my kids! It�s got great design, rich theology, and is written in language that kids get. It�s a book you should have in your home.� - Mathew B. Sims, Writer and Freelance Editor; author of�A Household Gospel � �Superheroes, beasts, enemies, a (not so) secret mission, the greatest love story! This book will shape for youth a big-God worldview and nurture Christ-exalting living. It�s filled with fascinating nuggets, memorable bites, rich theology, clear wisdom, and fun ideas. The pictures and topics are varied and engaging and will both draw your child into God�s world and Word and propel him or her toward maturity, responsibility, and godliness.�� - Jason S. DeRouchie, Professor of Old Testament and Biblical Theology, Bethlehem College & Seminary � �Champ Thornton�s book shows families how to grow a root system in the Christian faith. It offers a broad base of rich content in meal-sized portions readily accessible to families. The content ranges from an introduction to Scripture, to biblical theology, to historical theology. The elephant jokes and knot tying lessons are a nice bonus. I am putting this on a short list of books I recommend that all our church families own.� - Chris Brauns, Pastor; author of Unpacking Forgiveness � �The Radical Book for Kids is a book that every Christian child should own. Full of great insights, fun facts, and great activities, it is the perfect companion to help children unpack the Bible and their faith at a deeper level. We need to encourage our children to develop a love for the Bible that will help them to stand for the Lord in every area of their lives through the years. The Radical Book for Kids will help them to do just that!� - Olly Goldenberg, CHILDREN CAN, www.childrencan.co.uk � �Champ Thornton's The Radical Book for Kids is a wonderful presentation of core Christian truth and practice that stands out in both style and substance. I can immediately see many possible uses for this book, but I particularly commend it to parents as a fun way to talk about the faith with their kids. There is a feel of randomness in the selections of the topics, but I think that adds to the attractiveness of the book. Highly recommended.� - Stephen Smallman, Author of The Walk-Steps for New and Renewed Followers of Jesus � �The Radical Book for Kids is deceptively fun! While preteens are utterly enjoying themselves with the creative games, hands-on projects, laugh-out-loud jokes, and cool stories, Champ Thornton is radically discipling them with a crash course on Bible study methods, hermeneutics, church history, biblical theology, and Christian life and ethics. This is the kind of book that stealthily helps parents, pastors, and teachers make young followers for Jesus Christ.� - Matthew C. Mitchell, Pastor of Lanse Evangelical Free Church; author of Resisting Gossip: Winning the War of the Wagging Tongue; father of four � �In The Radical Book for Kids, Champ Thornton brilliantly combines words, drawing vivid pictures in one�s mind to simplify key spiritual truths. Every parent, grandparent, and spiritual influencer of kids will want a copy for themselves due to the depth, insight, and comprehensive knowledge provided all in one convenient book. Kids will totally relate to the cultural relevance, fun facts, historical heroes, clever illustrations, and hands-on applications provided throughout.� - Darcy Stelzer, KidzLife Ministry Director, New Life Church, Gahanna, Ohio � �I am always looking for that creative spark that creates conversation and simulates the desire to understand the Bible better.�It is critical for this age group to achieve that.�I�m convinced that this book will provide an amazing conversation to help young people to go deeper in their faith.�It will create vibrant faith with the centrality of scripture, generate an interest in theology and could build a great foundation for disciples in the future and living out Christian faith as a teenager. I strongly endorse this book, I think it is well written, informative, engaging and will result hopefully in changed lives.� - Roy Crowne, Executive Director, HOPE Read more See all Editorial Reviews
