I actually went out and ordered a bunch on Amazon a while back just so I could have them around. They were so good. I'm pretty sure I was the only person who ever checked them out of the school library as well, they would just be sitting there and I'd take them out again and again.

We first found them when we were still young enough that our mom didn't want us reading Goosebumps, and in some ways JB was worse, BUT my sister claimed that the books were very Christian and my mother just was like WELL OK go for it! In hindsight I think Zimmerman only prays in a desperate situation she thinks is gonna kill her... I need to read these again for sure

Sorry for the late reply, just saw this!

It's actually an interesting question. Because the thing is that, IIRC, Bellairs was an extremely devout Catholic. So it wouldn't actually be all that surprising for them to actually have a Christian message, but I can't really recall one. It seems to mostly be in the background, with the characters having a religious life and going to church but without much really explicit religious content.
