Who was in the manger that first Christmas morning? Some say he would become a great moral leader. Others, a social critic. Still others view Jesus as a profound philosopher, a rabbi, a feminist, a prophet, and more. Many are convinced he was the divine Son of God. Who was he-really? And how can you know for sure? Consulting experts on the Bible, archaeology, and messianic prophecy, Lee Strobel searches out the true identity of the child in the manger. Join him as he asks the tough, pointed questions you'd expect from an award-winning legal journalist. If Jesus really was God in the flesh, then there ought to be credible evidence, including Eyewitness Evidence-Can the biographies of Jesus be trusted? Scientific Evidence-What does archaeology reveal? Profile Evidence-Did Jesus fulfill the attributes of God? Fingerprint Evidence-Did Jesus uniquely match the identity of the Messiah? The Case for Christmas invites you to consider why Christmas matters in the first place. Somewhere beyond the traditions of the holiday lies the truth. It may be more compelling than you've realized. Weigh the facts . . . and decide for yourself.… (meer)

I read this one a few years ago and also gave a copy to a coworker who was unsure about what she believed, but was interested in exploring faith in God. Lee Strobel was a journalist who did not believe in Jesus. He writes that he was not driven by feelings and that, as an investigative journalist, he was “far more interested in facts, evidence, data, and concrete reality.” After his wife became a Christian, he embarked on an investigation in the same way he investigated claims as a reporter - the see whether they were true or hoaxes. What he uncovered changed his life and he is now a believing Christian. His longer book, The Case for Christ, has been adapted to film. This one is shorter and focuses on the baby in a manger, born to a virgin all those years ago. It’s under 100 pages - consider giving it a read… you might even be able to finish it by Christmas! Have you been exploring any Christmas reads? (

In The Case for Christmas, Lee Strobel investigates the story of Jesus' birth and reveals how we can know it is true. He examines the Bible's claim that Jesus was born of a virgin, some of the "puzzles" we find in the Gospel that don’t seem to match up with the historical record, and the great mystery of the incarnation—how Jesus could be both fully God and fully human. Lee shows how the evidence points to the inescapable conclusion that Jesus was who he said he was: the divine Son of God.
In The Case for Easter, Lee Strobel looks at the story of Jesus' resurrection and reveals how we can know that it actually took place. He explores the "discrepancies" critics have pointed to in the Gospel accounts, looks at the evidence that Jesus' tomb was truly empty, and shows how the eyewitness accounts of those who saw Jesus alive after the crucifixion are credible. Lee reveals how all the facts point to the conclusion that led him from atheism to Christianity: Jesus was the Son of God who conquered the grave.

Felt like a cut down version of the Case for Christ, but a good read nonetheless. (
