Case for Christ Bible Study Guide Revised Edition (eBook)

Teacher? Revolutionary? Messiah? Son of God? Who is Jesus of Nazareth? In the award-winning book The Case for Christ, Lee Strobel uses his experience as a tough-minded reporter to investigate history's most controversial figure. Knowing that the credibility of any story hinges on solid facts, Strobel challenges scholars to back up their opinions with compelling evidence and cogent arguments in order to put the case for Christ to the test. The Case for Christ has now been adapted for individual and group study in the form of a six-session DVD curriculum complete with an interactive guide for participants and a separate leader's guide. This study, written by Strobel and Garry Poole, invites us to sift and analyze the fascinating historical evidence about Jesus. What participants discover can transform their relationship with Christ and equip them to help others along their spiritual journey. The six sessions include: 1. Looking for Evidence 2. Eyewitness Evidence 3. Corroborative Evidence 4. Fingerprint Evidence 5. Evidence for the Resurrection 6. Reaching your Verdict
