Editorial Reviews

Review

"Strobel's appraoch is hard-hitting, clear, and persuasive." — Christian Research Journal

(Christian Research Journal )

"Despite the rather heavy matters discussed, this book is easy to read. The analogies and anecdotes are very helpful in explaining a deep subject on an understandable level." — The Conservative Theological Journal

(The Conservative Theological Journal )

"...the book incorporates Strobel's journalistic skills to tackle several of the most persistent objections to belief in Christ....'The Case for Faith' is for readers who may be attracted to Jesus, but still have formidable intellectual barriers with emotional undertow inhibiting them from fully committing their lives to Christ....As one who was a spiritual skeptic for many years, Strobel relates well to those who object to the faith on emotional and intellectual grounds...." — Christian Retailing

(Christian Retailing )

"When Strobel interviews his subjects, he approaches the questions just as a non-believer would, and he's not afraid to press until he gets a satisfactory answer....'The Case for Faith' will provide the tools you need to remove...obstacles from a non-believers path to faith in Christ." — Singing News

(Singing News )

"Lee Strobel takes a hard look at the toughest objections to Christianity....The result is an intellectual and captivating book that will change the way many think about God." — Christian Herald

(Christian Herald )

"[This] is for anyone who is looking for satisfying and life-changing answers." — Giftware News

(Giftware News )

"It will help you understand how God can meet our needs even in the midst of great suffering." — Home Times

(Home Times )

"Strobel...confronts in head-on fashion some of the thorniest issues that prove a hinderance to people coming to faith in this thought-provoking volume." — Capital Journal

(Capital Journal )

5.0 out of 5 stars Strobel's Second Apolgetic Work Continues His Search for Faith, September 30, 2005
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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Thought-Provoking Topics for Group Study, November 2, 2006
I purchased this book for our small group study after previously reading Stroebel's The Case for Christ. Strobel holds a Master of Studies in Law from Yale, was a journalist and former legal editor for the Chicago Tribune. The Case for Christ documented Stroebel's journey from atheist to Christian. In this book, Stroebel addresses the most common issues or objections expressed by non-believers toward the Christian faith. We selected this book because it deals with issues that are also troublesome topics for Jesus-followers. Stroebel lays each objection out and then, in the style of an investigative reporter he lays out the objections, taking the devil's advocate approach. Each objection is addressed by a different scholar, whom Stroebel introduces with a brief description of their educational background, publications and notable positions held in various religious and secular institutions. Although our group didn't always agree with the "defense" Stroebel's scholars presented for each objection, we found the topics to be thought-provoking and each stimulated a good discussion. As Christians, we wanted to to better understand and address our own faith struggles over these issues (evil & suffering, miracles vs science, evolution, ugly church history, etc.) This book is good for use in a discussion-oriented group study, but it is not your typical fill-in-the-blank "bible study" guide. The group needs to read each chapter (which are pretty long) before the study and you need someone who can prepare for and lead the discussion.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Overview of 8 Obstacles to Faith in Christ, April 6, 2007
By James D. Madden (Colorado Springs, Colorado United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have been a believer in Christ now for over 20 years. Recently, I encountered a season in my life where I wanted to gain a better understanding of what I believe, why I believe, and why others choose not to believe. I found what I was looking for in Lee Strobel's fine apologetic treatment of the subject of faith. I thoroughly enjoyed the structure and flow of this book as Lee introduces the reader to various scholars and experts who have spent decades and staked their careers on such difficult topics as the existence and purpose of hell, why bad things are aloud to happen, Jesus as the only way to eternal life, a tainted Church history (Inquisition, Salem Witch Trials), etc. Each chapter ends with discussion topics and additional resources for further study. I recommend this book for all believers and non-believers who are searching for an excellent overview of some of the most difficult obstacles to faith in Christ.
