sabrinad345 's review for:
The Case for Christ
by Lee Strobel
I’ll be up front and say that this will be a pretty biased (and verbose) review since it’s coming from a Christian, a “cradle Catholic” as they say. Butttt, we all harbor biases whether we acknowledge them or not. Anyway!
When you’ve grown up in the faith, you’ve been exposed to the basics for so many years that it almost becomes mundane… I had been filled with doubts as I grew into a free-thinking young adult, and honestly, I don’t think moments of doubt will ever go away in this lifetime. But Strobel’s relentless work and investigative journalism-style search for truth about Christianity’s various claims in this book have helped me immensely in my own faith journey. He tackles some of the questions I’ve always wondered about through extensive research and nitty-gritty interviews/discussions with dozens of theologians and scholars. I would say this book is an excellent resource for someone who’s already Christian, someone who is curious about the faith but has doubts or hesitations, questioning agnostics, or anyone looking for evidence rather than just “myths and tales” we have all heard a million times before. This book isn’t full of fluff or motivational speeches of why everyone should convert. It’s not shoving religion down your throat but is just rigorous, precise intellectual arguments and information. If you are willing to read with an open mind, just give it a go. :)
