It has been said that one can find the answers to all of life's mysteries in the Bible. The Word of God is sufficient to meet all our needs. Finding the answers requires at least a basic knowledge of the Bible. The concordance is a topical index of key words that lead a scholar to appropriate Bible verses. It is a valuable tool to finding the answers in the Word of God. Concord Cunningham is a boy who has discovered the value of a concordance and uses it to solve mysteries in his community. His success brings him acclaim, and a reputation as " Scripture Sleuth". Readers will be challenged to solve the mysteries without the advantage of a concordance, but Concord Cunningham will reveal the source of the answer in Scripture. This is the first of a series. Matthew Halverson is eager for young readers to discover how to find God's answers to life's questions in the Bible.

My son loved this book so much and can't wait for me to order the 2nd book. He said "I can't believe you can use the bible to solve mysteries." I will be ordering the next book soon!

My 10 yr. old son received 2 of these books for Christmas and absolutely loves them! He and his 14 yr. old brother actually let me read several of the chapters to them so they could work together to figure out the clues. I hope Mat Halverson considers writing more books like this -what a great way to get kids into their Bibles! Bravo!

I purchased this book for my 9 year old son and he enjoyed the book a whole lot! He loves mystery-type books and being that we are responsible for what he is exposed to, the description of this series seemed perfect...and it was!!! I will definitely be purchasing the other 3 books in the series. He was so intrigued with how Bible verses were used to give clues toward solving the mysteries. An excellent concept. I wish there were more of this series.

I had the first book since Mat first published it, and finally read it last year. It was awesome! My first thought upon finishing was, "Who can I buy this for?" My daughter will get the set for her birthday, as well as all of her friends from church. This is really well done, fun and inspirational too!

Thank you Mat! These books are wonderful. I purchased them through another site and could not be happier! My son is eleven and I have to stop him every night after one story or they would be gone by now. These stories give us the opportunity to share the Bible and find verses that we knew were there but never really connected with. Again, thank you and keep up the good work!

I just purchased this book from the author for our church library. What a wonderful book - every child should have one! My 12 year old daughter loved it and it was wonderful to see her looking up scripture in the bible. BTW there is a second book out called Concord Returns - I'm writing my check now!!!
