A Seasoned Journalist Chases Down
the Biggest Story in History


Is there credible evidence that Jesus of Nazareth really is the Son of God?

Retracing his own spiritual journey from atheism to faith, Lee Strobel, former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune, cross-examines a dozen experts with doctorates from schools like Cambridge, Princeton, and Brandeis who are recognized authorities in their own fields.

Strobel challenges them with questions like How reliable is the New Testament?  Does evidence exist for Jesus outside the Bible?  Is there any reason to believe the resurrection was an actual event?.

Strobel's tough, point-blank questions make this remarkable book read like a captivating, fast-paced novel.  But it's not fiction.  It's a riveting quest for the truth about history's most compelling figure.

What will your verdict be in The Case for Christ?

"Lee Strobel probes with bulldog-like tenacity the evidence for the truth of biblical Christianity."
Bruce M. Metzger, Ph.D., Professor of New Testament, Emeritus, Princeton Theological Seminary

"Lee Strobel asks the questions a tough-minded skeptic would ask.  His book is so good I read it out loud to my wife evenings after dinner.  Every inquirer should have it."
Phillip E. Johnson, Law Professor, University of California at Berkeley

"Utterly fascinating. I wholeheartedly recommend it."
Ravi Zacharias, Ravi Zacharias Ministries

LEE STROBEL, with a Master of Studies in Law degree from Yale Law School, was an award-winning journalist at the Chicago Tribune.  Today this former spiritual skeptic is a teaching pastor at Willow Creek Community Church near Chicago.

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
