Summary: Investigating the claims of Christ
Comment: This DVD is just over an hour of entry-level apologetics (defense of the faith). If you were looking into the claims of Christ, this would be a great start. Lee Strobel was a former journalist for the Chicago Tribune that clamed atheism. Once his wife became a Christian, it set him into a two-year investigation of the claims of Christ. This DVD is the Readers Digest version of that investigation. His entire investigation is recorded in his book "The Case for Christ."
If you are already a Christian, you will find this video to be a great start in bolstering your apologetic. It touches on areas of manuscript evidence, extra biblical evidence, eyewitness accounts, predictive prophecy and the resurrection of Christ. This is a very high quality film, just as another one of Lee's films, "The Case for a Creator."
This video kept my ten year old entertained, even though many parts were over her head. However, it was certainly too much for my seven year old, but he did sit through it. Any documentary on biblical evidence that can keep a seven year old entertained, says a lot for the quality. I recommend viewing this video; it is completely something that I would be comfortable passing out to Christians and non-Christians alike.

Summary: Brings it to life...
Comment: Well done Lee. I was raised Roman Catholic, but lost interest in religion during my teen aged years. I've since reconnected with God, and this book has added dimension to the Bible. It answers many of the questions which were left unanswered in the past and contributed to disconnect from religion. I've just finished reading this book for the second time.
I would recommend it to all Christians who have unanswered questions about Jesus, who's faith is under attack, or for those who arent quite sure what to believe.
Lee's writing style is easy to read. And I found it easy to imagine I was in the room with the scholars he interviewed.

Summary: A Christian Film that is actually good
Comment: Lee Strobel does a great job researching and discussing the Case for Christ in this DVD. He brings in multiple speakers from the actual book, and we get to see and hear each of their personalities and ideas. Not only does he have Protestants give their ideas, but he has Jews and Catholics as well.
The only problem I had with it, is in the very last section, the pace slows down and you start to get bored. Other than that, very well done.

Summary: Truly a must.
Comment: Lee Strobel does a wonderful job of explaning the central issue of life. All men are inherently aware that they are sinners facing eternity so they either must find a way to save themselves or find a savior. There is only one worthy of trust for eternal life.
It is a must read for anyone honestly seeking the Truth.
