3.0 out of 5 stars I Thought It Was Full Sized, October 13, 2005
This review is from: The Case for Faith Miniature Edition (Hardcover)
This is a miniature book that contains a stripped down version of the main points of the full length book of the same title. I thought I was getting an incredible bargain on the book. The little book is still a decent value, and is a helpful tool in grasping the main points of the book. However, when I bought it I thought it was the full book, and so was very disappointed, although it was kind of funny. The miniature book contains shortened interviews with Christian intellectuals, such as William Lane Craig, about issues that challenge the intellectual viability of Christian faith. The answers are solid and helpful, although not incredibly substantive in such a short version.

5.0 out of 5 stars Strobel's Second Apolgetic Work Continues His Search for Faith, September 30, 2005
This review is from: The Case for Faith Miniature Edition (Hardcover)
Like many American Christians, I was brought to church most Sundays and endured countless sermons and lessons. Despite this seemingly rich education on Christian principles, I never was exposed to a lesson or class on the existence of God; God's existence was assumed as fact. As I matured into my twenties and went to college, the existance of God was no longer taken for granted. I encountered many agnostics and atheists among my many college professors. The net result of their influence was to question my faith. I never lost my faith, but I found it was a faith that could not withstand scrutiny.

Reading Lee Stobel's "The Case For Faith" continued in me my search for the certainty of my faith. Strobel's book is an excellent place to start investigating the issues that question one's faith. Like in his previous book, "The Case for Christ", Strobel presents interviews with several Christian apologetics that involve issues related to the veracity of the Christian faith.

The issues are as follows:

Can a real living caring God exist in a world filled with evil?
Are the Biblical miracles really true?
Is evolutionary theory enough to explain life on earth?
Is there only one way to GOd - through Jesus?
How can a loving God throw his created people in hell?
Is the church's history, with it's abuses, crusades, and inquistions, a reason not to believe in Christianity?
If I am filled with doubts, can I still be a believer?

Mr. Strobel investigates each issue thoroughly. He approaches the issues as a skeptic who wants to be convinced of the truth. Strobel was once a skeptic himself and his investigative journalism convinced him of the truth of his Christian faith.

If you have questions about your faith, then this is a good starting point for your investigation. There are other books that go into more detail on all the issues raised here, and you may want to purchase these as well for further study. But this is a very good starting point for answering those nagging doubts about your faith in Christianity and one's faith in the person of Jesus.

Most highly recommended.

2.0 out of 5 stars Warning!!! Not the full length book!!!, January 24, 2006
This review is from: The Case for Faith Miniature Edition (Hardcover)
I bought this item thinking it was the full book, but it's really a miniature version, which was pretty disappointing to me when I realized it. I think the website should indicate that this is a miniature (abridged) version.
