Our church library has a number of books by journalist Lee Strobel that cover a range of subjects and are written for a variety of age groups. There is the original The Case for Christ as well as its Student Edition (232.9 STR) along with The Case for Faith (231.0 STR) and The Case for Faith for Kids (239.0 STR). We also have The Case for Christmas and The Case for Easter (232.9 STR).
The Case for Christ examines the arguments that people have made against Jesus being who he claimed to be and concludes that he really was the Son of God in the divine sense. Strobel interviews a number of scholars and presents their evidence for Christ as well as their willingness to live for Christ.
The Case for Faith examines several issues that are considered problematic for faith, such as
how a good God could evil to be present in the world and what the presence of other religions means to someone who claims that Jesus is the only way to God.
All of Lee Strobel’s books approach the topic of Christianity from a solid foundation and are valuable for both Christians and non-Christians in increasing their understanding of what Christianity is claiming and why it is that Christian believe the things they do.
There are four books in the Kidsboro series by Marshall Younger.
