Sooner or later, kids have big questions about God, life, faith and the Bible, especially when their friends start asking them about what they believe. A common one is: How do we know Christianity is really true?

Big questions deserve good answers. This pithy, fun and fast-paced book looks at what the Bible says to help 9-13s think through this big question for themselves. It explains why we can trust the Gospels as real historical documents and walks through the evidence for Jesus' resurrection. Lively stories and illustrations make this book easy for this age group to engage with.

Emma Randall has illustrated many books, including Diary of a Disciple.

Chris Morphew

Chris Morphew is an author, teacher, and school chaplain living in Sydney, Australia. As a child, he was obsessed with dinosaurs and spaceships, so most of his childhood writing featured either one or both of those things. His latest book is Best News Ever, a 100-day guide to the Gospel of Mark. He enjoys Mario Kart, obscure board games, and superhero movies, and has been told he looks like Chris Hemsworth from the back.

Another great book in this series!

I love Chris Morphew’s books. Although they are written for teens (well, ages 8-10 upwards), as an adult I love reading them too. He makes everything so clear and easy to understand. They are funny, wise, humble and rooted in Biblical faithfulness. The way he relates more complicated ideas by basing them in every day situations and analogies is great. This book focuses on the big question of did Jesus actually come back to life? He explains that all of Christianity comes down to this question – and how we then respond to the answer. He looks at the non-Biblical historical sources, the reliability of Scripture as a historical document, why the disciples and other eyewitnesses and writers wrote what they did and how the growth of Christianity provides reassurance that Jesus must have come back to life. A great book to give reassurance that the Bible can be trusted, and therefore that Jesus can be trusted.

I didn't want to put this down!

This book is aimed at teens, but the content is just as helpful for adults! It has similar content to books on the same topic aimed at adults, but the author has some really helpful illustrations to help readers grasp the concepts. He writes in a humorous way which is appealing, and his style also portrays in his absolute confidence in the gospel!
