The Case for Christ

A Journalist's Personal Investigation of the Evidence for Jesus [Updated & Expanded]

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 ?

Winner of the Gold Medallion Book Award and twice nominated for the Christian Book of the Year Award, Strobel’s tough, point-blank questions read 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.

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.
