The Answer to Bad Religion Is Not No Religion: A Guide to Good Religion for Seekers, Skeptics, and BelieversIf you think the only logical response to bad Christianity is to leave Christianity completely, this book is for you.

If you think the only logical response to bad Christianity is to leave Christianity completely, this book is for you. In an effort to help those who've been hurt by or turned off by negative religion, Martin Thielen explains that there is an alternative to abandoning religion: good religion. Thielen uses personal stories to illustrate the dangers of religion that is judgmental, anti-intellectual, and legalistic. While addressing the growth of the new atheism movement and the "Nones" (people that have no religious affiliation), this book argues that leaving religion is not practical, not helpful, and not necessary. Thielen provides counterparts to the characteristics of bad religion, explaining that good religion is grace-filled, promotes love and forgiveness, and is inclusive and hope-filled. Perfect for individual, group, or congregational study, a Leader's Guide and a Worship and Outreach Kit are also available to further the discussion and increase community involvement.Binding Type: Paperback

The Illustrations are Sweet, Storyline… Great!
Format: Board book
This book is sturdy and has a wonderful message. My grandchildren love it! If you are the one who presents 2 children in a classroom or other setting, most children will really love this book. The durability of the book is great. The illustrations are sweet.
The review platform does not allow for me to enter an age span. It does not allow for me to enter multiple ages. It seems to force you to Select one age. I would say that having raised children of my own, I would start reading this book by one years old, but the average child I guess would best benefit with between ages like two and four. The book could be read up to people who are like six years old if they just love a sweet bedtime story.

This is such a cute little book, especially for families who already love The Very Hungry Caterpillar. The story is sweet, simple, and perfect for reading together, making it a great gift for Father’s Day, birthdays, or just a special book for dads and their children to share.
My daughter loves The Very Hungry Caterpillar, so she was immediately interested in this book. The illustrations are colorful and engaging, and the message about the bond between a child and their dad is really heartwarming.
