Exercise

Many times the only thing people dislike more than exercises their bodies is exercising their brains. It’s hard work. But the more you do it the easier it becomes. And the Christian Logic books from Trivium Pursuit help make it painless – perhaps even fun. ~ Me 

  

The Thinking Toolbox

 

This book is like a toolbox, full of different kinds of tools you can use for different thinking tasks. Just as you use the wrench to fix the sink, so you can use the tools we give you in this book to solve thinking problems.

We wrote this book for children and adults who want to learn logic and critical thinking skills. The Thinking Toolbox follows the same style as The Fallacy Detective with lessons and exercises and an answer key in the back. Parents and teachers, as well as anybody who wants to learn logic, will find The Thinking Toolbox easy to use and practical.

Features

  • Fun to use – not dry like a math textbook
  • Can be used after or before The Fallacy Detective
  • Introductory – teaches skills you can use right away
  • Self-teaching format
  • For ages twelve and older
  • Over 60 cartoon illustrations by Richard LaPierre

    It is important for Christians to defend their faith and biblical worldview.

  3. Lisa says:

    The Bible tells us to always be prepared to give an answer. When we speak, especially of Christian principles, we need to be able to have solid reasoning so that others will be drawn to the truth.

  4. Jyl Cundiff says:

    Our enemy the devil seeks to destroy through deception…reasoning from a Biblical viewpoint is most important in keeping ourselves from being deceived.

    It is incredibly important! We are always to seek to discern the truth and to cast out the false. How can we do so without thinking skills?

  32. Thanks to all who commented!

    Although teaching our children to reason Biblically is a big part of our educating through all the years, by the time they reach their teens we like them to have a more formal introduction to logic and to understand the types of faulty reasoning there are, (and terms for them.) These books by the Bluedorns do so in a fun, non-stuffy way. If you didn’t win, but are interested in this great logic book, you can order it here.

    And the winners are —

    Evanna and Vicki N!
    Congratulations! I’ll be emailing you.
