The Case For Christmas, A Journalist Investigates the Identity of the Child in the manger.






The Case For Christmas, A Journalist Investigates the Identity of the Child in the manger.
By Lee Strobel
Zondervan Publishers, Willow Creek Association


     Lee Strobel is a "... law-trained newspaperman..." who was an atheists that had a life-changing encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ.  With such a background, he uses his analytical approach to investigate the life of Christ to uncover and present the facts with the evidence to back it up.  

     The Case For Christmas recounts his consultations with experts on the Bible, archaeology, and messianic prophecy as he searches out the true identity of Christ and His birth.  He answers such questions as:

Can the biographies of Jesus be trusted?
What does archaeology reveal?
                Did Jesus fulfill the attributes of God?
                Did Jesus uniquely match the identity of the Messiah?

     This is a small, paperback book of only 91 pages.  But it is HUGE in it's information and focus!  It is tremendous information and great "food for thought".  An excellent read - for the new Believer or the mature Christian.
