Movie Review: Speed Racer
"Speed Racer is a family-oriented film with some great action and racing sequences all pulled together through a very colorful, intense, and fun technology-savvy environment with hints of the old way of life still present."

That's what Kidology CP Team member Alan Phillips has to say about this Warner Bros. film based on the 1967 animated cartoon. Alan notes that there are strong, teachable themes in this movie, including "The Value of Family", "Doing the Right Thing", and the concept to "Never Give Up". Read this Kidology movie review to learn more, including areas of concern, supporting scripture, and discussion questions you can use with the kids in your children's ministry!

Movie Review: Iron Man
"From a pure entertainment viewpoint, Iron Man was quite the movie," notes Kidology CP Team member Jeramy Chapman. "Amazing special effects, superb casting, and a solid story help create one of the best superhero films of all time."

"But... this is not a kid movie. There's simply too much violence and other adult subject matter to make this movie kid-friendly." As with all Kidology movie reviews, we provide children's ministry-oriented teaching tools such as an overview, areas of concern, teachable themes with scripture, and discussion questions.

Kidology Report: Reveal

"There is a great scene in the cartoon version of How The Grinch Stole Christmas where we get to see the size of the Grinch's heart through an X-ray. Wouldn't we all love to own that kind of machine and line up our kids for regular 'heart' inspections? We could see if their hearts were growing bigger for God... or not.

Reveal doesn't propose to be the X-ray machine... but it comes about as close as we can to measuring a person's heart." Kidology CP Team member Marc Romero reviews Greg Hawkins & Cally Parkinson's Reveal. This book, authored in conjunction with a study at Willow Creek, helps answer the questions "Am I leading an effective ministry?" and "How would I even know I'm being effective?"

Kidology Featured Item
"Perhaps the most damaging thing about the way adults present Christianity to children is the anemia. We've given our children faith stripped of adventure. Karl's new book Order of the Ancient changes all that. Your kids will love the high adventure and colorful characters of Karl Bastian's universe." - Larry Shallenberger, author and Children's Pastor


Order of the Ancient, written by Karl Bastian, is inspired by the great stories of old -- good vs. evil, ancient tradition, young heroes mentored by wiser sages, supernatural powers and miracles, mystery, and great battles. Inspired by epic tales enjoyed since childhood, this book possesses elements of the great stories of old that will engage today's middle to upper elementary children.

You can read the
Prologue here, or order it now!

Also available as a 10-Pack or as a case.
