Publisher's Description
This timeless, compelling, and thought-provoking book on the Christian faith, now updated, includes two all-new chapters, a current list of recommended resources for further study, and a new discussion guide. In The Case for Faith, bestselling author, journalist, and former atheist Lee Strobel turns his investigative skills to the most persistent emotional objections to belief in God--the eight "heart barriers" to faith: "Since evil and suffering exist, a loving God cannot" "Since miracles contradict science, they cannot be true" "Evolution explains life, so God isn't needed" "God isn't worthy of worship if he kills innocent children" "It's offensive to claim Jesus is the only way to God" "A loving God would never torture people in hell" "Church history is littered with oppression and violence" "I still have doubts, so I can't be a Christian" This bestselling book is for those who may be feeling attracted to Jesus but who are faced with difficult questions standing squarely in their path. For Christians, it will deepen their convictions and give them fresh confidence in defending their faith to skeptical friends, or during the hardest of times, when they have to defend their faith to themselves in moments of doubt. Also available: The Case for Faith Spanish edition, kids' edition, and student edition. Plus, be sure to check out Lee Strobel's entire collection of Case for... books: The Case for Christ investigates the historical evidence for Jesus The Case for a Creator explores the scientific evidence for God The Case for Grace uncovers the "how" and "why" behind God's amazing grace... and more!

“Here’s a powerful collection of interviews with leading experts on some of the toughest objections to Christianity. Lee Strobel uses his skills as an award-winning investigative reporter to crisscross the country and elicit compelling answers to the objections that hinder many people from putting their faith in Christ. This is nothing short of a masterpiece of apologetics! Highly recommended for Christians and for anyone who is spiritually curious.”
“Lee Strobel has given both believers and skeptics alike a gift in this book. He does not avoid asking the most difficult questions imaginable—questions about God and suffering, about divine judgment and hell, about injustice, and about the exclusivity of Christ. He dares to deal with complexity too, thus refusing to pander to readers or provide simplistic answers that do more harm than good. Yet his style of writing—by recording interviews with experts who address these difficult questions—makes the book surprisingly accessible and winsome. I found it both helpful and captivating.”
“Everyone—seekers, doubters, fervent believers—benefits when Lee Strobel hits the road in search of answers, as he does again in The Case for Faith. In the course of his probing interviews, some of the toughest intellectual obstacles to faith fall away.”
“With intellectual depth and honesty, Lee Strobel investigates and then nullifies the toughest arguments against Christianity. A perfect book for the intellectual, the doubter, and the inquisitive. A great faith builder.”
