What does she mean by “difference” Dave? Say a little bit about that.

I read this book with my 10 year old daughter, and she really seemed to enjoy it. I loved her unexpected comments, for example, in response to an evangelism tactic: “Mom, do they really think a sticker is going to save someone’s soul?” She also had some great questions as well, which led to some great discussions. This book did not provide easy answers to matters of science and faith (thank goodness!), but it did bring up some excellent questions and enforced the point that questioning and critical thinking are good things.

If I had any gripe about this book, it was that the characters were often portrayed more like bad stereotypes rather than dynamic flesh-and-blood humans with both good and bad qualities. Overall, though, we really liked this book and the conversations it sparked.

Justin – there’s not epub or kindle version available right now. It has to be hard-copy or nothing at the moment. I hope that it can become an ebook down the road, but we’ll have to wait and see…

I would be very interested in getting this as an ebook for kindle or epub, etc. Any chance that is possible?

Comment on Bullying: Not Just a Children’s Problem by R b

People of influence especially ministry leaders need to be held accountable when their actions are wrong. If following Biblical means of confronting are stonewalled does that mean one just let’s this situation go? How can we stand by and allow it? It happens. Because we are taught to touch not the Lord’s anointed which in this case is a misapplication of scripture, an excuse for those who know something is wrong but for selfish reasons fail God by not addressing abuse of position in a godly manner. I have personally seen this and a happened to me as a volunteer. There was nowhere to turn. I knew I would not be heard because the circle of negative influence of self righteous people is so tight. They work stealthily as a well oils machine as they have mastered the skill of treating those who don’t fit or are vulnerable as if they are garbage. And what baffles me to my core is the fact that leaders who bully seem oblivious to the fact that God is watching. Satan is all about thus vey thing and if we as a family of believers continue to allow it from the top down then we are guilty of spiritual murder my 2 cents
