Our son and daughters have loved it. I grew up with comic books, and wish we had this growing up! It is a worthwhile buy not only for your kids, but for you too!bucknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7005096405985757065.post-22728932156858455712013-03-26T21:57:55.572-04:002013-03-26T21:57:55.572-04:00May need to add this to the Birthday/Christmas lis...May need to add this to the Birthday/Christmas list.

I had avoided it for similar reasons as you, but picked up a copy of it for the kids this Christmas. We absolutely cannot keep Caleb and Micah from reading it. They have their noses in it ALL THE TIME. Rachel and Josh also enjoy it (and they are teen/preteen). This is an incredible resource for getting our kids immersed into the Bible. <br /><br />We are going through inductive bible study methods in our community group, and I used the Action Bible as an example of a creative Bible study tool to give you a different perspective/view of a given passage - kind of like reading a couple different translations can give you subtle nuances to original languages and help provide a more full view of the Word. A couple of the guys in our group who don't have kids may be buying one for themselves just because of the high quality of the artwork and the visual perspective it adds to Bible study.<br /><br />One precaution I would give, though, is that without intentional guidance of our kids, this could also create the unintended effect of relegating biblical stories to the same lavel as comic books or cartoons. I haven't seen that yet in our kids, but am just mentioning it as a possible effect of giving this resource to the kids without it being a part of a larger ongoing discussion of our faith and the higher regard scripture must have in our hearts.Jimmynoreply@blogger.com
