About this listen

This timeless, compelling, and thought-provoking book on the Christian faith, now updated, includes two all-new chapters, a current list of recommended resources for further study, and a new discussion guide.

In The Case for Faith, bestselling author, journalist, and former atheist Lee Strobel turns his investigative skills to the most persistent emotional objections to belief in God--the eight "heart barriers" to faith:

  • "Since evil and suffering exist, a loving God cannot"
  • "Since miracles contradict science, they cannot be true"
  • "Evolution explains life, so God isn't needed"
  • "God isn't worthy of worship if he kills innocent children"
  • "It's offensive to claim Jesus is the only way to God"
  • "A loving God would never torture people in hell"
  • "Church history is littered with oppression and violence"
  • "I still have doubts, so I can't be a Christian"

This bestselling book is for those who may be feeling attracted to Jesus but who are faced with difficult questions standing squarely in their path. For Christians, it will deepen their convictions and give them fresh confidence in defending their faith to skeptical friends, or during the hardest of times, when they have to defend their faith to themselves in moments of doubt.

Also available: The Case for Faith Spanish edition, kids' edition, and student edition. Plus, be sure to check out Lee Strobel's entire collection of Case for... books:

  • The Case for Christ investigates the historical evidence for Jesus
  • The Case for a Creator explores the scientific evidence for God
  • The Case for Grace uncovers the "how" and "why" behind God's amazing grace
  • . . . and more!

The discussion questions and recommended resources are available in the audiobook companion PDF download.

I enjoyed it in the most part, I loved the interviews he did and this is why I purchased the book. The annoying part was how much he waffled on with stories from his days of being a journalist. I felt unnecessary and boring. I ended up skipping past these parts. I dont think i'll be buying any more from this author.

A bit waffley

Well written well researched , compelling . All atheists, agnostics and skeptics and believers should read and consider fully .

Evidential research

Genuinely disappointed. Expected an honest discussion of the arguments and for the “case” to be made. Instead, I found this preachy and full of assumptions. Akin to a Sunday sermon. Perhaps the book would be good for a Christian who wants reaffirmation that they have made the right choice- makes a lot of assumptions in that regard.
