Is it right for your child? Answer a few questions to see how What's in the Bible? ranks against 8 other supplements.
See my matchParents and reviewers like the humor, songs and surprisingly deep topics (how the Bible was put together, key theology terms) in kid-friendly form, and they treat it as a good springboard for family discussion. Complaints include some hard-to-understand character voices, a lot of information per episode, and a few theological choices (such as giving more than one view of creation equal weight) that some conservative reviewers disliked. Most see it as a supplement to reading the Bible, not a replacement.
These come straight from the scoring rules the quiz uses.
