“What do you get when you cross a father’s tender heart, a pastor’s holistic vision, and a theologian’s precision? You get Todd Chipman’s 10 Questions About the Bible! Chipman knows the Bible, knows Christian theology, and most impressively, knows how kids think. This book aims boldly at kids, teens, and families, and—I experienced this firsthand while reading it to my children—Chipman hits all three marks at once with a book that is understandable, apologetic, and deep.”
Matthew E. Swale, Assistant Professor of Bible and Church Ministry, Warner University; author, Scripture’s Use of Scripture in the Old Testament

“10 Questions About the Bible is a go-to resource for the most important questions we all have about the Bible. Chipman’s conversational and friendly style makes this book a great devotional for young readers. At the same time, the way he organizes the answers to each question provides the perfect guide for parents and student ministry leaders seeking to strengthen the next generation’s confidence in God’s written word. And behind all of this is Chipman’s depth of theological insight, which is unique and invaluable in a book written for the next generation. I recommend this book for every kid and student seeking to know more about the Bible.”
