The Case for Christ: A Journalist's Personal Investigation of the Evidence for Jesus pdf 李·史特博

This is probably my second or third read through this book and I must be expecting more from it than I remember because it wasn't as good this time around. Not that it is bad or anything, rather it just isn't as revealing the second time around as the first, like the surprise twist in a movie you've seen a million times already. Really, this book is great its first time around and is specifically meant for either skeptics seriously investigating Christianity or believers who are looking for a historical confirmation (or, rather, support) for the things they believe. The only real criticism I have of this book is that Mr. Strobel seems to let things lie rather than follow things up. Sure, he asks pointed questions, but once an interviewee has given his answer he rarely asks another pointed question in rebuttal. This probably due to editorial choice rather than being what actually happened in each of his interviews. Fortunately, Mr. Storbel acknowledges that this book may not provide satisfying answers for some in his conclusions, he gives several footnotes in his books to back up what he is saying and/or quoting, and he even lists books at the end of each chapter for the skeptics or unsatisfied to further inquire into a certain topic. Also, the book is at its best moments when Mr. Strobel asks how the interviewee's research has affected their faith and gets a deeply personal answer (see the end of ch. 13). In short, this is a great book to start with if you are a skeptic or wavering believer investigating the historicity of Jesus and Christianity, but there are other books that are more thorough in its investigation than this.
