Publisher's 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

Jump-started my faith

I can't recommend this book more highly. Although it took me a while to get used to the book's narrative format, I found the examination of the evidence truly, objectively compelling. I am now reading the Word and praying daily. I couldn't be more grateful that I decided to listen to this book.

Excellent "listen". Very informative

Great book. Very informative. Informational works are well documented. Definitely worth the time, the author goes out of his way to find reliable and well credited sources. I was a believer in Christ before reading this and after its obvious to me that my faith is well placed.

Great book

Great book I found myself wanting to find time to listen to it. The book answered alot of questions I had and helped me put into words things I was unsure about. This book has definitely helped me grow my faith. I now want to order the print copy so I can use it as a study guide. Thank you Lee Strobel!

Learning 42 years after accepting

I’ve been a born-again Christian for 42 years and just now read the case for Christ. I learned quite a few things that I had never heard before. Investigative processes, as well as historical and literary proves about the scripture. I guess my face came backwards from Mr. Strobel‘s… I had the experiential In November 1979 and now I have the other parts. This was a great book and well worth the time to read and digest.

Wow! For those struggling with their beliefs!

If you are a person who requires logic, evidence and proof to guide your life...this book will give you faith. As the author Strobel says after all his research, interviews, reading and examining the facts and information available...it would take more faith to NOT to believe the divinity of Jesus, than the faith to believe!
