'God's Crime Scene for Kids' Mystery Investigation Kit Giveaway {Ends TODAY}

**Book received for consideration. All thoughts are 100% my own. 

Doubt.

Let's be honest, most of us experience doubt in our life at one point or another. We doubt someone is telling the truth. We doubt our own abilities. And sometimes, just sometimes we might just find ourselves doubting God too. Even in the Bible we read about Thomas needing proof about Jesus. Even the disciples had their doubts. So, it's only natural that they might pop up on occasion. Especially for kids who are just really learning and exploring the world around them.

It would be easy enough to just tell kids over and over, it's true because the Bible says so... and you know, it might even be enough for some. But for others--- for those like Thomas--- they need a little more. And that is just what God's Crime Scene for Kids gives them:


Wallace pin1

Hone your reasoning skills as you investigate evidence in the universe to determine the most reasonable cause for everything we see in creation.
In this companion to Cold-Case Christianity for Kids, Jason uncovers a mystery in his grandmother's attic. He and his friends, Hannah, Daniel and Jasmine, enlist the help of Detective Jeffries at the Jr. Detective's Academy. Along the way, they develop the skills needed to investigate the mystery and the evidence of God's existence. The cadets learn logical-thinking skills as they examine the contents of a mysterious box and the vast universe.
In God's Crime Scene for Kids, real-life detective J. Warner Wallace shows kids ages 8 to 12 what skills are needed to solve Jason's mystery, and at the same time looks at evidence in the universe that demonstrates God is the creator. Ultimately, kids will learn how to make their own case for God's existence.
To be entirely honest, I expected this book to read more like a nonfiction... similar in style to Lee Strobel's work, "The Case for Christ"... a scientific/fact based look at the evidence in that Christ lived. A nonfiction style that *I* personally love, but wasn't sure how my son would take to. This one however reads as somewhat of a combination of fiction and nonfiction. It is a story about Jason and his friends discovering the mystery and evidence of God's existence, BUT it uses real facts and real evidence along the way.

I have always loved a good mystery, as does my son... so that story really drew him in more than a plain ol' nonfiction might have. But they're still learning! It's also interactive. Throughout there are CSI assignments that encourage kids to pick up the Bibles and read straight from the source. There are also detective tips and definitions throughout. This book truly encourages kids to discover the evidence for themselves too, not just take their word for it. I love this. By using these tools, kids can build an even stronger foundation in their faith that they can confidently defend... more than just saying 'because the Bible...'.
Whether you have a kid who loves facts, science and mystery or a child who is questioning their faith, this book is a great addition to your home library. Learn more and purchase a copy here.
And there's a giveaway too...
