LibrarianMom Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 I'd like to work through a Bible/apologetics/worldview resource with my dd. I was wondering if we should use Strobel's Case For kids books or Apologia's Who is God (v.1) first. Suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wy_kid_wrangler04 Posted August 4, 2010 Share Posted August 4, 2010 We do Apologia, but they are both great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmeraldGirl Posted August 5, 2010 Share Posted August 5, 2010 Answers in Genesis has Demolishing Strongholds complete with DVDs and Study Guide. Thinking Like a Christian...but I can't remember the author at the moment. Both are thoroughly Christian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dallas12 Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 It really depends on what exactly you want to cover. Apologetics and worldviews overlap some but there are also distinct differences. There are a LOT of great resources out there, but I need a little more information on what you want out of the curriculum? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plansrme Posted August 16, 2010 Share Posted August 16, 2010 I am not familiar with either one of these specific resources, but I would guess that the Apologia version is going to hit Apologia's young earth creationist viewpoint somewhere, while Strobel's would be more compatible with other views of creation. So if you believe it is possible to be a Christian and not believe that the world is 6,000 years old, give or take, Strobel might be a better option than Apologia or anything from Answers in Genesis.

There are a LOT of great resources out there, but I need a little more information on what you want out of the curriculum? thanks I agree there are a lot of really great resources available. DD is going into 3rd grade and is starting to be ready for some study that is beyond just Bible stories to a "why does this matter". I agree that apologetics and worldview are completely different. I would like study both eventually and have identified these two curricula as resources I would like to use. I'm just trying to decide if one would be better to work through than the other. The Apologia set is actually based on Summit's Building on the Rock series, and I know that Summit has good stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dallas12 Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 Yes, I don't think you can go wrong with Summit Ministrie's marterials. Best wishes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
