Summary

Is there credible proof that Jesus of Nazareth really is the Son of God? In The Case for Christ, Lee 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

This book is a blockbuster bestseller for a reason

Faith is such a powerful, amazing and blessed gift from God but just having faith isn’t enough for me. I’m hungry and thirsty for more and stronger faith. Faith is like fuel. Faith energizes you. It makes you feel so good. The good news is that all Christians can increase and strengthen their faith through prayer (I.e., by asking God to strengthen their faith) and through research that involves scholarly written works. By the way, these written works are also a gift from God because God inspired those who wrote those “faith building” books. “The Case For Christ” is one such book. It is a very powerful “faith builder.” If you are already a person of faith this book will help to strengthen your faith. If you lack faith this book will inspire you and lead you to the Holy Spirit who can grant you the gift of faith - the most important, precious, and valuable gift that you will ever receive other than the eternal salvation that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ won for you by his sacrifice on the cross for our sins. Happy reading.

surprisingly good

This is a bit different from the movie. In the movie Strobal is a Dawkins type of guy and gets convinced by asking experts things. The original book feels different. Strobal wants to convince the reader rather than convince himself. Most experts here are well meaning but it still boils down to theology and fantasy. Tho atheists like Bart Ehrman also want to convince their devotees. The scientific parts, like the way archeology has confirmed some parts in Luke is something you never hear in mass media and even on YouTube propaganda videos, and was gripping. Even the Appolonius of Tier character who sceptics like to compare to Jesus was debunked by one expert. Overall I was surprised by some of the content in here.

Evidence that faith in Christ is reasonable

Every sceptic should read this book and so should every Christian. It is well written and scholarly.

Christian or sceptic Well worth the read

If you a Christian or sceptic this book is a great read and Lee is very easy to listen to.

I have listened to tis book a few times and it is hard to put down.

I am a Christian and find the book a good compliment to my faith.

As a sceptic this book lays out the case and there is lots of material you could look up from references here.
