This is a reworking of Strobel's well received The Case for Faith. Rob Suggs is a well known author in his own right and has done a good job of making this book "kid friendly." It covers five subjects that are considered problematic for faith. These are the presence of evil in the world and God's

good nature, the coexistence of science and miracles, the person of Jesus, the claims of other religions, and whether Christians are allowed to have doubts. The explanations are clear and children will be able to benefit from reading this book and discussing it with their parents or older siblings afterward. The whole family can get involved using the different versions.

After finishing the Case for Christ by Lee Strobel, I decided to read The Case for Faith for Kids by Lee Strobel with Rob Suggs. This short book, 90 pages was obviously written for children, it was basic It covers five subjects that are good to focus on as they relate to the Christian faith. It

looks at the problem of evil or (the presence of evil in the world and God's good nature), science/miracles, the person of Jesus, Christianity vs. other religions, and whether Christians are allowed to have doubts. The explanations are clear and well done. I read this book to see if I wanted to read through it with my eldest son. There are many questions and activities interspersed throughout which can be fun and informative. It help the child to think through the topics. I really enjoyed this little book and would give it a solid 4 or 4.25 out of 5 stars. I'd highly recommend this little book.
