Book Reviews of The Case for Faith: A Journalist Investigates the Toughest Objections to Christianity
Book Review: The Best Popular Apologetics Book I've Ever Seen
Summary: 5 Stars
As a Christian graduate student in philosophy, I spend a lot of time thinking about the tough questions Lee Strobel asks in "The Case for Faith." How can a good God allow evil? How can God send people to hell? Why is the history of Christianity so full of hypocrisy? Is the God of the Old Testament a loving God, or an evil one? Strobel sits down with some of the world's leading Christian thinkers and challenges them with the sharpest arrows in the skeptic's quiver. The book is a phenomenal success, and it should be required reading for any Christian who takes seriously the command to "love God with all your mind," as well as for any skeptic who is honestly pursuing truth.Book Review: The Best Popular Apologetics Book I've Ever Seen
Summary: 5 Stars
As a Christian graduate student in philosophy, I spend a lot of time thinking about the tough questions posed in this book. Much like "The Case for Christ," "The Case for Faith" addresses many of the most common and most challenging objections to Christianity head-on. Lee Strobel sits down with some of the sharpest minds in the evangelical world and challenges them with the sharpest arrows in the skeptic's quiver. The book is a phenomenal success and should be required reading for any Christian who takes seriously the command to "love God with all your mind," as well as any skeptic who is dedicated to the pursuit of truth.Book Review: Another Classic
Summary: 5 Stars
After I read the "Case for Christ" I didn't think that Strobel could match that masterful book. To my surprise, he not only matched it, he surpassed it. "The Case for Faith" answers the questions that have plagued everyone at one time or another. This book takes on the questions that I never thought could be answered, and does an incredible job of finding the truth. I not only recommend this book to everyone who has ever had a doubt about the claims of Christianity, but to anyone who is looking for truth. This book, as well as "The Case for Christ," should be in everyone's library who deems truth important.Book Review: An Apologetic Book That Reads Like A Novel
Summary: 5 Stars
This book by Lee Strobel, is a sequel to his already popular book The Case For Christ. Like his previous book, this book is written in the first person as Lee plays devil's advocate and asks many of the same questions many skeptics and, quite frankly, Christains have asked about the Christain faith.He travels around the US interviewing many of todays top apologists and Theist philosphers. He focuses his questions on what he calls the "big eight" such as "Why is there suffering and evil?" and "Do miracles contradict sceince?"
He interviews some of America's heavey hittters such as Philospher Peter Kreeft, J.P. Moreland, Norman Geilser and Ravi Zacarahias. They give straight answers.
This book reads much like the first in so much that it is in the first person and he is asking questions from scholars. It is also a page turner. This book is a little better than the first as his writing style flows a little easier and his opening interview with agnostic Charles Templeton is heart felt and handled with tact.
Every Christain needs to purchase this book. It is not the most academic work for its kind, but, because of its format and style, more understood. It delivers to whom these subjects need to be directed the most: everday people.
