Rendition Conducive To Books The Case for Faith: A Journalist Investigates the Toughest Objections to Christianity (Cases for Christianity for Students)
Was God telling the truth when he said, "You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart"? In his #1 bestseller The Case for Christ, Lee Strobel examined the claims of Christ, reaching the hard-won verdict that Jesus is God's unique son. In The Case for Faith, Strobel turns his skills to the most persistent emotional objections to belief---the eight "heart barriers" to faith. This Gold Medallion-winning 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 discussing Christianity with even their most skeptical friends. "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." --Luis Palau "Lee Strobel has given believers and skeptics alike a gift in this book. He does not avoid seeking the most difficult questions imaginable, and refuses to provide simplistic answers that do more harm than good." --Jerry Sittser, professor of religion, Whitworth College, and author of A Grace Disguised and The Will of God as a Way of LifeParticularize About Books The Case for Faith: A Journalist Investigates the Toughest Objections to Christianity (Cases for Christianity for Students)

Some of this book is so unintentionally funny. The sub-title is A Journalist Investigates the Toughest Objections to Christianity. To do this our Mr Strobel puts these Toughest Objections to several top guys and presents us with these interviews where they wrestle mightily. So here he is talking with Norman L Geisler who is one of the most well-known and effective defenders of Christianity in the world. The Tough Objection at this point is God isnt worthy of worship if he kills innocent childrenVery rational arguments presented. Chapter 2 is excellent. Chapter 3 is fascinating. Try to win this debate against the facts he and leading scholars and scientists present.
Some good points, but not as good as The Case for Christ. I expected more. This one felt more scattered, vague, and shallow at times, when compared to Strobel's first book. It's not as airtight. Read his first one, and leave this behind.
"But in your hearts set Christ apart as holy [and acknowledge Him] as Lord. Always be ready to give a logical defense to anyone who asks you to account for the hope that is in you, but do it courteously and respectfully.". 1 Peter 3:15 Amplified Bible.This is the best book of Christian apologetics which I have ever read. I have found it more useful than Josh McDowell's EVIDENCE THAT DEMANDS A VERDICT, itself one of the great books of apologetics.In this book Lee Strobel set out to answer some of
I give this four stars...but I am already a Christian. I do feel it answered some of my questions and doubts, but I have no idea how an atheist would take to it. Obviously it's meant to bring people to God and since I have the advantage of already "knowing" God, I can't confidently give it 5 stars. I would be curious to know what further holes, if any, an atheist would poke into the case.Same goes for the science section. To me, it made sense. But I am quite limited in my knowledge of science.
This book was loaned to me by a friend, at a time of my life when I was doubting my faith in God, and seeking a house of worship that didn't exclude me for who I am. This book reaffirmed my faith in God, and led me to read more and more and more books relating to faith, which I continue to read today.
