Description


Is there credible proof that Jesus of Nazareth really is the Son of God In The Case for ChristLee Strobel, former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune and New York Times bestselling author, retraces his own spiritual journey from atheism to faith and builds a captivating case for Christ's divinity.

In this revised and updated edition of The Case for Christ, Strobel cross-examines a dozen experts with doctorates from schools such as Cambridge, Princeton, and Brandeis, asking hard-hitting questions--and taking a deeper look at the evidence from the fields of science, philosophy, and history.

In his comprehensive investigation, Strobel doesn't shy away from challenging questions, including:

  • How reliable is the New Testament
  • Does evidence for Jesus exist outside the Bible
  • Is Jesus who he said he was
  • Is there any reason to believe the resurrection was an actual event
  • What does all of the evidence point to--and what does it mean today

 

Winner of the Gold Medallion Book Award and twice nominated for the Christian Book of the Year Award, The Case for Christ has been adapted into a major motion picture and has now sold over 5 million copies worldwide.

This edition includes scores of revisions and additions, including updated material on archaeological and manuscript discoveries, fresh recommendations for further study, and an interview with the author that tells dramatic stories about the book's impact, provides behind-the-scenes information, and responds to critiques of the book by skeptics.

Strobel's thorough examination reads like a captivating, fast-paced novel. But it's not fiction: it's a riveting quest for the truth about history's most compelling figure. Discover The Case for Christ today.

Praise for The Case for Christ:

"Nobody knows how to sift truth from fiction like an experienced investigative reporter, or to argue a case like someone trained at Yale Law School. Lee Strobel brings both qualifications to this remarkable book. In addition to his own tremendous testimony as atheist-turned-Christian, the author marshals the irrefutable depositions of recognized "expert witnesses" to build his ironclad case for Jesus Christ. The Case for Christ sets a new standard among existing contemporary apologetics."

--D. James Kennedy, PhD, senior minister, Coral Ridge Presbyterian Church

Good Morning,

I have not completely read the book but I would like to make a few general comments:

1. In this instance you are preaching to the choir, brother. I accepted that the Bible was the inerrorent Word of God years ago because of the chain reference column dow the centre of the pages. Christ validated the Old Testement when he used terms suck as "it is written".

2. However, not with-standing the above, I believe that the book (The Case for Christ) is exceedingly useful for apologetic arguments. I am not an academic i have had some difficulty following the arguements set out. I will and plan to peruse the book again and again in order to gain a better grasp of the arguements put forward.

3. As I am still in the process of reading the book, I have wondered whether a "Readers Digest"abridged edition would be profitable for some readers. I am a university graduate and do have some difficulty following the arguments put forward.

4. Overall, I am enjoying the book and do appreciate the time and effort tht has gone into its writing.

I would relish an abridged edition.

Thank you for the opportunity to write a short critique of the book. I am enjoying it very much.


Sincerely Yours in Christ
