speaks ofa millions of years ago...
When answering a question about dinosaurs, this book refers to events that happened millions of years ago.If your family is like ours and you are teaching your children about a "young earth", this book will not be a good fit for you.

Excellent Source for Creative Answers
This book is a wonderful source for creative answers to those difficult questions like "How can God be three people in one?"The answers are relatively short, and explain difficult things in an easily understood way.A must have for all Christian parents!

Guidance for a specific audience
This book is one of a series which I bought for consideration for a parents' group.I found them a bit conservative and not quite suitable for this particular audience.I got much more out of Parenting for Peace and Justice.

101 Questions Children ask about God
I and my nine year old daughter found this book to be very helpful in answering everyday questions that the traditional bible doesn't answer for children. The format is easy to read for children and the cartoons are afun way to help them (and me!) to relate and remember the question andanswer. Definately a winner for those who are seeking and want answers andfor those who did not expect such unique questions from their children!Awonderful learning experience for parent and child.

Martin Luther is awesome
It is incredible how up to date Luther can be 500 years later. It is the best devotional I ever had. In fact it got me to read a devotional on a daily basis. I am reading it now the fourth or fifth time over and am stil amazed. I am glad that the new edition changed the bible quotes from the Contemporary English Version to the NRSV.
However, it would be nice to know what writtings the texts were taken from rather than just the volume of the editions. I bought several copies to give as presents to congregation members and friends.

Great faithful revision
A great revision of Luther's devotional.Easy to read and yet with the deep theology of Luther.You do not need to be Lutheran to appreciate this reformed perspective of each day.

The Bedside Luther
During his career as a reformer, professor, and pastor, Martin Luther wrote many sermons, letters, and lectures regarding the faith.This book is a collection of many of his best pieces, arranged into daily devotionals, and edited into contemporary english.As such, it allows the pastoral side of Luther to speak to the reader each day with edifying passages on faith, daily living, etc.The book also includes a subject index to look up passages that pertain to certain topics, as well as an index of sources, allowing the interested reader to consult the original works for further study.

Many works of Luther are not as approachable for lay readers due to stultified translation.This book does a very good job of removing that artificial barrier, allowing Luther to speak to today's readers in plain language.Highly recommended!

I love, 'Faith Alone'
By Faith Alone
A friend loaned me his copy and I took it home to read. My wife picked it up and started reading and said, I love it, it's just the way I feel. We both find the daily selections beautiful and the themes listed in the back refer us to just the perfect page for needed support. We ordered
another nine copies, five for our daughters and four for ourselves and friends. We continue to find joy and comfort in our daily reading.I am active in several men's bible studies and this book adds a complete new level to my understanding of God's word.

A Pleasure
My pastor gave this to me as a gift. Testimonials by Martin Luther himself in an updated version of the German language, a branch of Olde English. Daily readings for every day, but the days were written by Luther day he wrote the book. Germans are very good speed readers, so the whole book can be read in a few weeks by literate people who are proud of their German heritage. The main thing at Luther's church is communion. ...

Excellent resource for kids interested in Scripture
I gave these books away one Summer to kids involved in a discipleship program and it proved to be a great tool for them. The answers are age-appropriate and written in a way kids can understand. Some kids even spent time just reading the entries in this book in addition to using it for looking up things they did not understand. When your child has a question about a Bible word, name or idea, send them to this, even if you can answer it. It helps the child develop study skills and gives him/her a sense of accomplishment for having discovered the answer for him/herself. Every family with early readers should have a copy!
