Customer Reviews

Day four the sun and the moon.

It amazes me the amount of Christians that read Genesis and know the sun and moon came on the fourth day and the creation of the Earth before the sun. Big Bang clearly needs the sun to come before the Earth. Big Bang has no place in Genesis. It also amazes me how Christians miss the six days of creation and the resting on the seventh day as our daily pattern in life with our work week. How unique is this? This book is stunning and very accurate. Too many Christians believe in Jesus but not Genesis. After reading these two Absolutely Awesome books to my family I rest securely in my Christian faith and rejoice that the Bible is infallible from Genesis to Revelations. God's Creation is all around us and there are still so many that cannot see it. Absolutely Awesome devotions!!!!!!!!!

Science explained from God's view

My eight year old and I read this book every night before bed and we love it. I am learning a lot about science. I like the way the authors relate the topic (such as fingerprints or oceans) to how the objects demonstrate God's glory.Each day has a Bible verse, discussion questions, and a prayer. It's just right for my daughter, who has only recently realized she needs Jesus and accepted Him into her heart. If your child is more precocious spiritually, then the discussion might not be deep enough for your taste.As for us, it's great to have God open our eyes to His beauty through this book.

Excellent devotions/science lessons for kids.

This book is a favorite with our two sons. We bought it to use for daily devotions, but find that it also provides a good science lesson. As homeschoolers, this book provides a great way to introduce students to the wonders of science while stressing the awesome power of the ONE who created everything. There is so much order and beauty to creation and this book does a great job of drawing attention to things that might otherwise go unnoticed. In addition to being well-written and researched, the illustrations are excellent. The questions at the end of each chapter and extra activities make this a great resource. This book will captivate the attention of your young readers.

Top Teen Pick in Youth Group

Finally a scientific look at God's awesome creations without putting down God's power and omnipotence! This book gives teens an inside look at an entire gamut of deep scientific wonders with their incredible patterns and systems. It is a treasure to me as a Christian who believes God is the pattern setter who began the evolutionary process and continues to be in charge of it today through millions of fascinating creations in space and on earth! A must read for young minds looking at accepting God's place in the evolution of this amazing universe!
