How Can I Be Sure What’s Right And Wrong?

How can I be sure what’s right and wrong? Is it all just a matter of opinion? Do we really need God to tell us how to be good people, or can we just figure it out for ourselves? What about situations where there is no one right answer, or when we disagree with others about what the best thing to do is?

About the Author:

Chris Morphew is an author, teacher, and school chaplain living in Sydney, Australia. He has written twelve books for the best-selling Zac Power series, as well as his own six-book young adult series, The Phoenix Files. He’s also co-written The Gateway, an eight-book series for primary school kids about a hotel for aliens, alongside Rowan McAuley and David Harding. His latest books are Best News Ever, a 100-day guide to the Gospel of Mark, and The Big Questions, a series of short books that answer tough questions about life and faith. Chris enjoys Mario Kart, obscure board games, and superhero movies, and has been told he looks like Chris Hemsworth from the back.

Continuing on with his series Big Question Series, Morphew sets out to answer another big question. In this thought-provoking book, Morphew guides his reader through concise chapters tackling different aspects of morality, ethical dilemmas, and how to approach them.

The strength of this book is the real-life examples and relatable scenarios. This allows the reader to confront their own moral compass and ponder over the choices they have made. This makes the book more engaging and it helps the reader connect with the subject matter on a personal level.

Personally, I felt this book lacked the depth that the other books had. They seemed to be more surface-level rather than deep like the other books. I think the problem is that Morphew tried to cover such a wide range of topics rather than focusing on the main topic at hand.

Despite this, this book is a captivating read that dives deep into a complex question that is geared toward children who are seeking answers. While this is not my favorite book in the series I see the need for this book. I see why Morphew chose this topic. Children and teens alike struggle with this topic because like many of us, they strive to understand the difference between being a good person and being a Christian. All and all this is the perfect book for children and teens struggling to answer moral questions. This book will also leave you with a heightened awareness of right and wrong.
