As always, a great read by Strobel.

In this book, Strobel, follows 13 claims about God, and how those claims are very real in our lives today!

Those 13 claims are:
  * There's Freedom in Forgiving Your Enemies
  * You Can Even Learn To Forgive Yourself
  * You Can Survive The Rat Race Without Becoming A Rat
  * You Can Make A Difference That Will Last For Eternity
  * God Can Give You Power As Power Is Needed
  * You Gain When You Give Yourself Away
  * A Dose of Doubt May Strengthen Your Faith
  * God Has A Cure For Your Secret Loneliness
  * God's Rules on Sex Can Liberate Us
  * Random Acts of Kindness Aren't Enough
  * Heaven Is More Than Wishful Thinking
  * Jesus Is The Only Path To God
  * Playing It Safe Is the Most Dangerous Way to Live

Awesome insight as only Lee Strobel can bring! This is another read I highly recommend for all to read!

I give this book 5 Stars:

What a great study on the book of Revelation! Each chapter of this book coincides with that Chapter in the Book of Revelation by John.

The scripture is there for each chapter. It does come from the Holman Christian Standard Bible, while I prefer the KJV instead, however, it is excellent. Along with the Scripture there are notes provided by the author, and at the end of each chapter is a prayer. Prior to each chapter is a point to meditate upon while reading the Scripture, kind of setting you up for what is to come in the Scripture. I love that as it is not only well written, but you feel you are prepared and understand the Scripture better as you read it.

The book of Revelation can be a daunting subject to understand.  While I don't completely agree with the author on all aspects, as he says it really doesn't matter as long as you open your mind and are prepared for the future of your soul.

An excellent read. I highly recommend it for all believers.

I give this Five Stars...
...and a big Thumbs Up!

Wow! I can't even begin to describe this book, except to say, another great Lee Strobel read.

Strobel begins with all of the arguments against a real Jesus, and slowly begins to build his case until when you reach the end, he has completely won you over! I can't imagine this man not being one of the great soul-winners of our lifetime! His arguments are always factual. He leads you away from the many self-proclaimed "prophets and bishops" of our time who know so very little about the real Jesus. He shows you where those who argue away the real Jesus or his death and resurrection, have been led astray. And in this book, he even argues against many Christian colleges, universities and seminaries that are no longer teaching the scriptural Jesus and are sugar coating the scriptures to provide us with a 21st century Jesus who is forgiving without repentance.

I have found in Strobel a champion of the real Jesus. If you know Strobel's past, you will know that he was once a self-proclaimed atheist, and a journalist. So using his journalistic tools, he attempted to disprove Jesus was real. But what he managed to do, was to prove to himself that He is very real, and is much alive today!

This is an awesome book. Excellent for debate and group studies and private study. I highly recommend it.

I give this book Five Stars
