Book Reviews: The Bad Guys #8 – Superbad by Aaron Blabey

8/10

Somehow, the Bad Guys have gone from time traveling to gaining superpowers in book eight of the series. Unfortunately for them, they have no idea how to use their new powers! Can the International League of Heroes help them to learn their powers in time to save the earth from Dr. Marmalade and the alien invaders? Or will Dr. Marmalade completely take over the earth and destroy the Bad Guys?

Somehow we’ve gone from saving chickens to facing aliens and dinosaurs and now we’ve arrived at superpowers. No idea how, but I’m not complaining! The characters have gone through some development and there are several new characters we’re introduced to from the League of Heroes. And the ending of this book has me excited for the next one. If you enjoyed the other books, this one is definitely worth reading!

10/10

Jesus told his followers to go out and spread the gospel, so a very important question would be this: what is the gospel? In one of the longer entries in the Crucial Questions Series, R.C. Sproul answers this question by reviewing and explaining the affirmations found in the famous document “The Gospel of Jesus Christ: An Evangelical Celebration.” Using clear language, he goes over all eighteen points to explain clearly what the gospel is. This booklet has crucial information about what is and isn’t the biblical gospel, and so I would recommend this to new Christians as well as seasoned Christians.

Book Review: Crucial Questions Series #34 – What Is Biblical Wisdom? by R.C. Sproul

9/10

In today’s world, everybody has access to almost limitless knowledge. But knowledge is not wisdom. And though many cultures have compiled lists of proverbs and sayings of wisdom, that doesn’t mean it’s biblical wisdom.

As he looks at what wisdom really is, where it comes from, and the variety of wisdom found in different books of the Bible, it becomes clear that true wisdom is from God. If you’re a new Christian who wants to learn wisdom or an old hat who needs a refresher, this is a short, easy read that will point you in the direction of God’s Word along with a snippet of the types of wisdom you will find there.

Book Review: Crucial Questions Series #32 – What Is Predestination? by R.C. Sproul

8/10

Predestination is one of the most controversial topics amongst Christians. R.C. Sproul tackles this subject with clarity and understanding. He is firmly in the Augustinian camp instead of the prescient camp, but he makes some compelling arguments. If you want to understand the reformed view, this is a great book to start out with. It also offers a small view of the prescient camp, though I would recommend more study to more fully understand the opposing view. Still, this is a good starting place for this hot button issue. Recommended for all Christians.

Book Review: Crucial Questions Series #31 – How Does God’s Law Apply to Me? by R.C. Sproul

10/10

Many Christians today don’t see the point in God’s laws in the Old Testament for them in the New Testament covenant. But is that true? In this book from the Crucial Questions Series, R.C. Sproul explores the laws of the Old Testament and then dissects each of the Ten Commandments to showcase how they apply to Christians. A bit longer than the usual CQS booklet, this is a good book to read for Christians new and old, especially those that have questions about the law and how it applies to us today.

Book Review: Crucial Questions Series #30 – Does God Exist? by R.C. Sproul

10/10

The existence of the God of the Bible is a major topic of debate in today’s postmodern world. But is there actual proof of God’s existence or is it a leap of faith? Using philosophical arguments from across the centuries, explore the question ‘Does God exist?’ with R.C. Sproul. Sproul uses clear language to explore the concepts of philosophers like Kant and Sartre, though this book is a bit weightier and more complex than most of the Crucial Questions Series. Still, if you are a person searching for the reason behind belief in God or a Christian who wants to explore the more philosophical arguments for the existence of God, this is a good steppingstone into a difficult topic.
