The Case For Christ is Enlightening for Christians and Skeptics
Like many American Christians, I was brought to church most Sundays and endured countless sermons and lessons. Despite this seemingly rich education on Christian principles, I never was exposed to a lesson or class on the existence of God; God's existence was assumed as fact. As I matured into my twenties and went to college, the existance of God was no longer taken for granted. I encountered ...

Putting Jesus in His Place: The Case for the Deity of Christ22 reviews
Robert Bowman, J. Ed Komoszewski
Kregel Publications, 2007
Jesus put rightfully in his place
I am pleased with Robert Bowman and J. Ed Komoszewski's treatment on the deity of Jesus. I have read a number of books on the person of Jesus, but I have never read one as chock-full of biblical documentation as this. Of course, none of the information in this book will come as a surprise to the committed Christian, as the deity of Christ is the cornerstone of our faith. But when one considers ...

The Case for Christ--Student Edition (6 Pack) 8 reviews
Lee Strobel
Zondervan/Youth Specialties, 2002
Just Do IT!
I decided to follow God's lead and invite 30+ young men from the area to come for 10 weeks and have a book/Bible study using this book. 23 guys have RSVP'ed. Great book to use for Christian students or non-believers to give evidence of Christ, the Bible and God. The evidence is provided in a clear and neutral position and allows the students to decide on the evidence for themselves. I ...

The Case for Divine Design3 reviews
Frank Salisbury
Cedar Fort, 2006
One of the best books on ID
The Case for Divine Design is a must read for anyone interested in the Intelligent Design (ID) controversy. I was attracted to the book because the author wrote a college level botany text I once used and has authored several leading college textbooks in this area with major textbook publishers. The author has a PhD in plant physiology from Cal Tech and is a leading researcher in the field. ...

Jesus Inquest, The: The Case for--and Against--the Resurrection of the Christ1 review
Charles Foster
Monarch Books, 2006
Easily eclipses The Da Vinci Code
This is an extraordinary achievement: for something that's so well and comprehensively researched it manages to be a remarkably compelling and exhilarating read. If you've read the Da Vinci Code (or haven't) you should consider upgrading to The Jesus Inquest. This guy seems to have covered all the angles surrounding the death and resurrection of the Nazarene - the documentary sources, the ...

The Case for Christ - MM 6-Pack: A Journalist's Personal Investigation of the Evidence for Jesus25 reviews
Lee Strobel
Zondervan, 1998
An excellent introduction to Christian Apologetics!
This book is an excellent introduction to Christian Apologetics. It presents some basic arguments in favor of Christianity in an easy to read and understand format. While I am sure he interviewed critics during his initial research that led to his conversion, he does not present them here because as the title says, his book presents the basic "Case for Christ". Strobel is not a theologian, and ...

Why Good Arguments Often Fail: Making a More Persuasive Case for Christ6 reviews
James W. Sire
IVP Books, 2006
Contending for the faith
James Sire has been involved in Christian apologetics for quite some time now. His classic work, The Universe Next Door, first penned in 1976, is now in its fourth edition and has sold over a quarter-million copies. His many years of speaking and writing about apologetics in many different countries makes him an authority on the subject.
Yet he asks, like many of us may have, why do my ...

Case for Christ/Journey Bible with Book4 reviews
Lee Strobel
Zondervan Publishing Company, 1999
A Skeptic journeys with 13 scholars on the subject of Christ
I could not put this book down. I absolutely devoured it! It is an exhaustive investigation of the evidence for the existence of the historical-as well as-spiritual Christ. The skepticisms explored (about Christ) are extremely well processed. The only hole in the investigative technique is the fact that the writer only interviews great scholars who have already had a profound spiritual ...

The Case for the Resurrection of Jesus 23 reviews
Gary R. Habermas, Michael R. Licona
Kregel Publications, 2004
Evidential apologetics at it's best
This book puts forth the "minimal facts" approach to apologetics, ie the defense of the Christian faith. This method claims to limit its dataset to that which:
1) Has a high level of historical attestation
2) Almost all scholars in the field of New Testament study agree on, even the skeptical ones
The facts turn out to be four basic propositions with a fifth that is slightly more ...

The death Christ died: A case for unlimited atonement10 reviews
Robert Paul Lightner
Regular Baptist Press, 1981
Finally, a Biblical case for the Atonement
Excellent read...Dr. Lightner does an excellent job of setting forth the Biblical truth about the extent of the atonement! I just wish more Christians from all camps would read this fine work with an open mind--if they did there would likely be less division in the Body of Christ over this issue. I appreciated the following quotes on Pages 33-35:
"One who desires to be true to the revelation ...

Biblical Case for Total Inerrancy, A1 review
Robert P. Lightner
Kregel Academic & Professional, 1997
Excellent study of Jesus' position towards the scriptures
Assuming that the New Testament, as we have it, is a generally reliable document then to proceed with an overview of how Jesus regarded the Old Testament is a very rewarding study. Lightner does a very good job of presenting this study and even manages to support the inerrency of the New Testament. Read along with some of the more philosophical treaments of inerrency (Gielser, Boice, ...

Great book!
This book is condensed, short and easy to read. I have used it in my High school Sunday School classes as a study book for the kids, and they have liked it. It shows a journalistic, logical, convincing argument for Jesus Christ as God and Savior. Would highly recommend it to anyone interested in Christianity and the Truth.

Leading Lawyer's Case for the Resurrection2 reviews
Ross Clifford
Canadian Institute for Law, Theology & Public, 1996
A cogent readable study of Jesus' resurrection
This book takes up the question of whether Jesus rose from the dead and analyses the evidence from the canons of juridical scholarship. The author assesses how eight prominent legal scholars have argued their case for Jesus' resurrection. However the text is not simply a study of how eight lawyers have argued for the resurrection. It also includes the author's insights into the issues. The text ...

C. S. Lewis's Case for Christ: Insights from Reason, Imagination and Faith5 reviews
Art Lindsley
InterVarsity Press, 2005
A Must Read for CS Lewis fans! A Superb Defense of Faith
I am a huge fan of CS Lewis and of Dr. Lindsley's clear reasoning and eloquent argumentation; so, naturally when I saw this book, I immediately picked it up and read it with great enthusiasm. Admittedly, I went through the book rather quickly and will revisit it often for its clarity and to use as an aide in forming well-framed intellectual, imaginative and caring arguments in defense of faith ...
