Book Review: The Apostles’ Creed

The Apostles' Creed for All God's Children series by Ben Myers

This series has been such a gift in my Sunday School class. We spent January-June reading just one page each week and using it to talk about the words of the Apostles’ Creed, the same words we say together in worship every Sunday. It’s a gentle, theologically rich, and beautifully illustrated resource that helps kids (and adults!) begin to wonder about what these ancient words really mean.

Some of our best discussions have come out of this practice. The simple text opens the door for deep thinking and big questions, which is exactly what I hope for in our time together.

One of the books in the series, The King of Easter, is a particular favorite. I loved it so much I gave a copy to every family in our church as an Easter present! It traces the surprising people Jesus meets and welcomes throughout His ministry, leading to the wonder of Easter morning. It’s joyful, inclusive, and deeply rooted in the good news of the gospel.

If you're looking for books that are both beautiful and theologically meaningful, this series is a treasure.
