The Case for Christ: A
Journalist's Personal Investigation of the Evidence for Jesus
Lee Strobel

A
Journalist's Personal Investigation of the Evidence for Jesus
Retracing his own spiritual journey from atheism to faith, Lee Strobel,
former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune, cross-examines
a dozen experts with doctorates from schools like Cambridge, Princeton,
and Brandeis who are recognised authorities in their own fields.
The author of The Case for Christ, an investigative journalist
with a legal background, probes with bulldog-like tenacity the evidence
for the truth of biblical Christianity. Believers and agnostics
alike will learn from this fast-paced book.
BRUCE M. METZGER, PROFESSOR OF
NEW TESTAMENT, EMERITUS PRINCETON THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY
Lee Strobel asks the questions a tough-minded sceptic would ask
and provides convincing answers to all of them. His book is so good
I read it out loud to my wife evenings after dinner. Every inquirer
should have this book.
PHILLIP E. JOHNSON, BEST-SELLING
AUTHOR AND LAW PROFESSOR, UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA AT BERKELEY
An utterly fascinating treatment of the subject. It is truly a
unique book which I whole heartedly recommend.
RAVI ZACHARIAS
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 recognised "expert witnesses" to build his ironclad
case for Jesus Christ. I agree that The Case for Christ sets a new
standard among existing contemporary apologetics.
D. JAMES KENNEDY, PH.D., SENIOR
MINISTER, CORAL RIDGE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
I have never met anyone who has worked harder to provide seekers
and believers alike with the rational underpinnings of the Christian
faith. This book will become a classic.
BILL HYBELS, SENIOR PASTOR, WILLOW
CREEK COMMUNITY CHURCH
I was thrilled to be a part of The Case for Christ. It is one
of the most readable books in Christian evidences on the market,
and I believe that it will have a wide impact. Anyone who is interested
in the historical basis for Christianity should read this book.
J.P MORELAND, PROFESSOR OF PHILOSOPHY,
TALBOT SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY, BIOLA UNIVERSITY, LA-MIRADA CALIFORNIA
Educated in law and journalism, Lee Strobel interviewed thirteen leading
scholars and authorities, asking the tough questions about Jesus of
Nazareth and the biblical record of his life. Lee concludes that it
would actually require much more faith for an atheist to maintain
atheism than it would to trust in Jesus. I believe Lee is right. The
Case for Christ presents overwhelming historical evidence that Jesus
is who he claimed to be.

Mere Christianity
C.S. Lewis
ISBN: 0-00-624570-6

Mere Christianity is the most popular of C.S. Lewis's works of
non-fiction, with several million copies sold world-wide.
The book brings together Lewis's legendary broadcast talks of the
war tears, talks in which he set out simply to 'explain and defend
the belief that has been common to nearly all Christians at all
times'.
'He has a quite unique power for making theology an attractive,
exciting and fascinating quest.' Times Literary Supplement
It is a collection of scintillating brilliance which remains strikingly
fresh for the modern reader, and which confirms C.S. Lewis's reputation
as one of the leading Christian writers and thinkers of our age.
