The Case for Christ
Is there credible evidence that Jesus of Nazareth really is the Son of God? Former atheist and Chicago Tribune journalist Lee Strobel takes an investigative look at the evidence from the fields of science, philosophy, and history.
In this revised and updated bestseller, The Case for Christ, Lee Strobel cross-examines a dozen experts with doctorates from schools such as Cambridge, Princeton, and Brandeis, asking hard-hitting questions--and building a captivating case for Christ's divinity.
Strobel asks challenging questions like:
-
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?
