In my early years homeschooling, I found it very challenging to teach my daughter the Biblical Truth of how the world was created. The reason it was so difficult was because just about every place you go that deals with nature, talks about evolution and evolving. I had to be very creative and constantly reiterate the Truth. It can be a tedious task, however, well worth it! 7 Tips to Implement Creationism in an Evolutionary World 1. Evolution is like a Religion.

I was so excited to receive this book as a review copy from Bethany House Publishers, especially since it was already on my homeschool reading list. Hero Tales by Dave and Neta Jackson, the authors of Trailblazer Books, is part church history, part devotional, and part character study.

An older child could benefit by using this as an outline for further in depth study into one or more of the featured Christians in the book.

If you have have a vast array of age groups this book is best used as a family devotional.Hero Tales, compiles the lives of Christian heroes from William Tyndale to Harriet Tubman to Dwight L. Moody.
