Great for those seeking who have doubts/Great for small study groups.

I have been a Christian for a long time, and I this really helped to understand and extinguish doubts that I have had with my faith. This book is great for the intellectual that is seeking God but has doubts about Christianity. It covers questions on human suffering, morality, origin, and other doubts. Strobel details his interviewees' credentials on all the topics he covers. Strobel also incudes lists of resource books on each topic for the readers further investigation. This book has group questions at the end of each topic covered, so this can very easily be made into a group study. I would also recommend Strobel's other books that are set up the same way for easy resources and group questions.

Stunning!

I LOVED this book. It was visually stunning and I devoured it in one sitting. I've already passed in on to someone else because I just couldn't help but share. A truly beautiful book.

I am the type who needs proof

I never truly believed the Bible to be a true accounting. I am the type of person who tends to need proof. Blind faith never made sense to me. This book was so well written and logical that I actually felt God while I was reading it! This book had a profound effect on me and my life. I have no problem believing or debating the truth of the Bible now. I can answer questions and argue with conviction. Excellent book!

inspiring with important insights

I know I'm only fourteen, but this book really opened up my eyes. It shows us that there is an overwhelming avalanche of evidence pointing to God and his existence if only we look for it. Each interview provided the reader with important insights to misunderstandings and fake claims. It helps us climb over our intellectual barriers to finding faith and God and also talks about what to do if you are still having doubts or are trying to explain things away, which is something I find myself doing a lot. If you are skeptical or have strong faith I would encourage you to read this book. I also think some reviews for this book posted are unfair. Hell is not a place where you get whatever you want, but it is the lonliness and separation from God because we chose to not follow him in spite of all the evidence provided. The interview pointed out that worms, gnashing teeth and fire were merely symbolism, because of course you can't feel fire if you're dead! It is the separation from God that we feel, and that is the worst thing of all. Overall, fantastic book that will increase your faith if you are not close-minded.

A very intriguing read, informative for Christians and non..

Very informative book. A journalist becomes curious about the toughest objections to Christianity and sets out on a journey to discuss and investigate them. He travels around to various Historians, Scientists, Agnostics, Philosophers, and examines the toughest objections and questions in Christianity, and shows how, through study and reasoning, they can be proved true.

An answer to many difficult questions...

The Case for Faith is a must-read for those who want to believe in the promise of Christianity yet feel hindered by nagging doubts. This book looks at 8 major issues that keep many people from truly accepting Christ. As a major skeptic, I read this book and found that the scholars interviewed within the pages offered convincing arguments as to why we should believe. Like many others, I had a hard time believing that a loving God could exist when there is so much pain and suffering in the world; that is one of eight issues explored within the book. Strobel does not rely on his own ponderings to answer these fundamental questions to the validity of Christianity; rather, he interviews scholars and scientists, all of whom give thoroughly researched answers, not vague dogmatic assertions.
