Crossway’s homeschool book reviewers recently looked at Big Truths for Young Hearts. With Big Truths for Young Hearts, Bruce Ware encourages and enables parents of children 6-14 years of age to teach through the whole of systematic theology at a level their children can understand. Parents can teach their children the great truths of the faith and shape their worldviews early, based on these truths.
A handful of snippets from some of the reviews:
“Honestly, when I first looked at this book, I groaned. I didn’t want to read it. I thought it would be dry and boring. However, once I started reading, I was captivated from the very first sentence. To say this book is phenomenal is an understatement.”
“I appreciated the respect that he shows to his young readers and their parents by not watering down each topic with the overuse of illustrations. Too many children’s books oversimplify the truths of Scripture to make the book more appealing. Ware goes straight to the Scriptures in patiently discussing and explaining harder-to-grasp truths.”
“We have recently acquired another copy of Bruce Ware’s book Big Truths for Young Hearts – and not a moment too soon as we had given ours on permanent loan. I really can not say enough about this book! And the second reading is just as exciting as the first.”
“Here is something discussed among my 7-year old and I during our reading: My daughter began to understand the concept of Jesus being fully man in the section How Jesus Emptied Himself. She didn’t realize that Jesus could feel the same pains and temptations we face, and that, as a human, he has gone through much of the same things we go through.”
