The Biographies of Jesus (the Gospels) Can Be Trusted The results of his investigation are these: 1. In course of the book, Strobel visits 14 scholars with an array of expertise-in philosophy, archaeology, psychology, medicine, history, and theology-and subjects them to the same kind of cross-examination he might have used on a witness in a court of law. A long-time religious skeptic, Strobel begins the book as an atheist by the end, overwhelmed by the amount of evidence in favor of faith, Strobel is reborn as a follower of Christ. He isolates the most important aspects of Jesus’s life and death-His biography, His divinity, His resurrection-and consults world-renowned experts in those aspects to determine their truth. In The Case for Christ, Yale Law School graduate and former Chicago Tribune legal-affairs reporter Lee Strobel approaches the history of Jesus Christ as though it were a story he was reporting on. As The Case for Christ and its ancillary resources approach 10 million copies in print, this updated edition will prove even more valuable to contemporary readers.1-Page Summary 1-Page Book Summary of The Case for Christ The new edition includes scores of revisions and additions, including updated material on archaeological and manuscript discoveries, fresh recommendations for further study, and an interview with the author that tells dramatic stories about the book's impact, provides behind-the-scenes information, and responds to critiques of the book by skeptics.
