Book Description

Publication Date: September 1, 1998

A seasoned journalist chases down the biggest story in history--is there credible evidence that Jesus of Nazareth really is the son of god?

Retracing his own spiritual journey from atheism to faith, Lee Strobel, former legal editor of the Chicago Tribune, cross-examines a dozen experts with doctorates from schools like Cambridge, Princeton, and Brandeis who are recognized authorities in their own fields. Strobel challenges them with questions like: How reliable is the New Testament? Does evidence for Jesus exist outside the Bible? Is there any reason to believe the resurrection was an actual event?

Strobel's tough, point-blank questions make this Gold Medallion-winning book read like a captivating, fast-paced novel. But it's not fiction. It's a riveting quest for the truth about history's most compelling figure. What will your verdict be in The Case for Christ?

The book features many interviews with experts in different areas of specialties like theology, science and philosophy. The question is, "Was Jesus really the Son of God?", "Did He really resurrect from death?"

These are the questions that can prod our faith as Chritians, and for those who may have dismissed these Chritian claims as fables should give this book a chance and see whether those preassumptions stack up to the evidence.

You can read the book right away with a Kindle edition, which is an e-book form that you can download and read on your computer. It's cheaper, too. :)

The Reason for God by Tim Keller

This is a book by Timothy Keller. I've read quite a lot of books by Tim Keller, probably most of them.
This book in particular is well-suited for people who are quite new to Christianity and those Christians who may have had doubts about some parts of Christianity or had questions about some teachings, and that includes myself.

This book is an intellectually, logically well-thought out book that may help you recognise some of the misunderstandings you might have had about Christianity.

Here's a book description given in Amazon:

Timothy Keller, the founding pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City, addresses the frequent doubts that skeptics and non-believers bring to religion. Using literature, philosophy, anthropology, pop culture, and intellectual reasoning, Keller explains how the belief in a Christian God is, in fact, a sound and rational one. To true believers he offers a solid platform on which to stand against the backlash toward religion spawned by the Age of Skepticism. And to skeptics, atheists, and agnostics he provides a challenging argument for pursuing the reason for God.
