The
Case for Christ
by Lee Strobel
The Case for Christ records Lee Strobel’s
attempt to “determine if there’s credible evidence that Jesus of
Nazareth really is the Son of God.” The book consists primarily
of interviews between Strobel (a former legal editor at the Chicago
Tribune) and biblical scholars such as Bruce Metzger. Each interview
is based on a simple question, concerning historical evidence (for
example, “Can the Biographies of Jesus be Trusted?”), scientific
evidence, (“Does Archaeology Confirm or Contradict Jesus’ Biographies?”),
and psychiatric evidence (“Was Jesus Crazy when He Claimed to Be
the Son of God?”) Together, these interviews compose a case brief
defending Jesus’ divinity, and urging readers to reach a verdict
of their own.
