Publisher's Description
Bestselling and award-winning author Lee Strobel interviews experts about the evidence for the afterlife and offers credible answers to the most provocative questions about what happens when we die, near-death experiences, heaven, and hell. We all want to know what awaits us on the other side of death, but is there any reliable evidence that there is life after death? Investigative author Lee Strobel offers a lively and compelling study into one of the most provocative topics of our day. Through fascinating conversations with respected scholars and experts--a neuroscientist from Cambridge University, a researcher who analyzed a thousand accounts of near-death experiences, and an atheist-turned-Christian-philosopher--Strobel offers compelling reasons for why death is not the end of our existence but a transition to an exciting world to come. Looking at biblical accounts, Strobel unfolds what awaits us after we take our last breath and answers questions like: Is there an afterlife? What is heaven like? How will we spend our time there? And what does it mean to see God face to face? With a balanced approach, Strobel examines the alternative of Hell and the logic of damnation, and gives a careful look at reincarnation, universalism, the exclusivity claims of Christ, and other issues related to the topic of life after death. With vulnerability, Strobel shares the experience of how he nearly died years ago and how the reality of death can shape our lives and faith. Follow Strobel on this journey of discovery of the entirely credible, believable, and exhilarating life to come.

“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.”
