The Machine – Book Review

October 3, 2013 by Linda @ Linda's Lunacy

The Machine is the  first book in the new series Truth Seekers by Bill Myers. Written for ages 8-14, the Truth Seekers series uses a 21st century approach to sharing ancient Bible truths. I had my 13 year old son read The Machine.

The Machine

Bill Myers is an accomplished writer and film director whose work has won more than sixty national and international awards including the C. S. Lewis Honor Award. And among his best-selling releases for kids are The Incredible Worlds of Wally McDoogle and The Forbidden Door. Bill has sold more than eight million books and videos and lives with two cats, two kids, one dog, and wife near Hollywood, California. Myers has sold more than5,000,000books.

 

In the Truth Seekers Book One, The Machine, twins Jake and Jennifer have just lost their mother. They now have to move to Israel to live with the father that they have rarely seen. They don’t yet understand how all things work together for good to those who love God. But they will when a machine their father, an archaeologist,  invented points them to the Truth.

To use the machine, they would put an object into it and the machine would take the area back to that time period. They didn’t time travel themselves, but once the time period changed, they could go in and do stuff. For example, they went back to the first Palm Sunday and could walk around among the crowds.

My son loved The Machine: A Truth Seekers Novel. (affiliate link)  I showed it to him as soon as it came in the mail, and he took it to start reading. He finished it in less than 24 hours. He didn’t want to put it down. The story line is interesting, with funny parts, and includes Bible truths throughout.

For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:16-17 NKJV
