I’ve had another little spurt of book reviewing for our summer camp for Pathfinders (ages 11-14) as I’m trying to work out which books to order for the bookstall I’m going to be running. YP’s Guide to the Bible is a great little 32 page booklet, costing less than £3. It’s a reference guide for dipping into and includes flow charts, basic bible facts, bible help for young people, key people and topics, a time line, outlines of bible books and maps.
This guide would be great for every Christian (even grown-ups!) to have on their shelf and I’ll be pushing for every Pathfinder on our camp to take one home. It’s good value and an excellent little starter for anyone who wants to understand how the bible fits together, what it’s all about and why Christians read it. As the quote from Vaughan Roberts on p4 of the booklet reminds us ‘It is just one book written by one author with one main subject’. That main subject being Jesus Christ.

We have been using your great mini reviews in our parish mag so it is good to see another one – I’ve been watching out! Sadly just too late for the June edition, but I will send it on for July. Thank you for your helpful comments – it is great to encourage young (and older) readers.

‘Meanderings through my Cookbook’
Is there some way I can point the person who’s doing our camp bookstall to all your tips and ideas etc., please?
Hi Marc. I have just tagged all the posts with ‘Books for Pathfinder Camp’ – just search for that in the box at the top right hand part of my home page and that will bring all the related posts up. Thanks for making me do some blog filing!
Great. Thank you.
