The Case for Christ

The Case for Christ pits an atheist husband’s way of thinking against his wife’s newfound belief in Christ. The atheist, Lee Strobel, is an award-winning journalist. His wife’s burgeoning faith forces Lee to utilise his investigative skills in an attempt to disprove the claims of Christianity.

Strobel examines as much of the historical record as he can find and interviews many people, including a medical doctor and an agnostic psychologist, during his two-year investigation into the life of Jesus and the historical accuracy of the Gospels. This work leads him to a growing faith in Christ. Instead of debunking Jesus’ resurrection, Strobel ultimately embraces the faith, exclaiming at one point: ‘All right, God, you win!’
