Thinking Like a Christian

by David A. Noebel

Surveys reveal that a majority of Christian young people walk away from Christ after four years of a university education. Why? Because they are no prepared to defend their faith in a world that, in most cases, presents ideas contrary to their biblical beliefs. This 12-week curriculum, interactive study takes students on a journey into the world of ideas that are shaping our culture while teaching them biblical responses. Created for use in homeschools, Christian schools, Sunday school, youth groups and colleges, this one-of-a-kind study lays the groundwork in the 10 disciplines: Theology, Philosophy, Biology, Psychology, Ethics, Sociology, Law, Politics, Economics, and History.

The Student Journal encourages students to spend time daily interacting with the ideas gleaned from each teaching session.

I don’t think I would recommend this book to just sit down and read for pleasure. It was part of the homeschool curriculum we use. As a textbook I thought it had great material, but it also read like one. Lots of facts and knowledge just not a lot of excitement. My rating is based on how it served us for homeschool.

Honestly this was more a book for a college student in Bible school than a high school student. Also, no answers and not clear enough on the points it's trying to make. I was looking for a simple, clear introduction to apologetics. This was not it.
