The Case for Faith-Student Edition FROM OUR EDITORS
The bestselling author of The Case for Christ takes an unflinching look at the toughest questions and most troubling doubts a believer might have. He discusses topics like the presence of evil, the challenge of science, the hypocrisy of the church, and the place of hell. By examining these issues without fear or trembling, Strobel ultimately provides an airtight case.
FROM THE PUBLISHER
In his #1 best-seller The Case for Christ, legally trained investigative reporter Lee Strobel examined the claims of Christ, reaching the hard-won verdict that Jesus is God's unique son.
But despite the compelling historical evidence that Strobel presented, many people grapple with serious concerns about faith in God. As in a court of law, they want to shout, "Objection!" They say, "If God is love, then what about all the suffering in our world?" Or, "If Jesus is the door to heaven, then what about the millions who have never heard of him?" Or, "If God cares for everyone, then why does he eternally torture some in hell?"
In The Case for Faith, Strobel turns his tenacious investigative skills to the most persistent emotional objections to beliefthe eight "heart" barriers to faith. The Case for Faith is for those who may be feeling attracted toward Jesus, but who are faced with formidable intellectual barriers standing squarely in their path. For Christians, it will deepen their convictions and give them fresh confidence in discussing Christianity with even their most skeptical friends.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
Lee Strobel asks the questions a tough-minded skeptic would ask. Every inquirer should have it. (Phillip E. Johnson, law professor, University of California at Berkeley)
Lee Strobel has given believers and skeptics alike a gift in this book. He does not avoid asking the most difficult questions imaginable, and refuses to provide simplistic answers that do more harm than good. Yet his style of writing makes the book surprisingly accessible and winsome. I found it both helpful and captivating. (Gerald L. Sittser, professor of religion, Whitworth College, and author of A Grace Disguised and The Will of God as a Way of Life)
