The Case for Christmas: A Journalist Investigates the Identity of the Child in the Manger Audiobook

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

" No, this isn't a discussion about why Christians should or should not celebrate Christmas...... Nor is it a discourse on whether Christians should put up Christmas trees..... This book is basically an investigation of the events surrounding Christ's birth - the census, the veracity of the historical accounts, fulfilled prophecies, Christ's claims to divinity etc. It was informative and highly readable. "

" this is a "lite" version of the Case for Christ. as with that book, it is well and thoughtfully written, especially for the scientist in me. "

" Great little book by Lee Strobel. Quick and easy read. Very informative and interesting! "

" Really loved all of the apologetic teaching, but felt like the examples mirrored the same as those in "Case for Christ". Quick read, though, and focused on the reason we celebrate the holidays in the first place. Great examples of faith in the midst of doubt. "

" Good Study. "

" Good read......I especially liked the testimony of Perfecta Delgado in the introduction and the interview with Louis Lapides in Chapter 4. "

" Kind of a bantam weight version of his earlier work. Just as interesting, but considerably less material. "

" I'm starting this to get me in the mood for Christmas!! I can't wait! "

" I've always wanted to read The Case for Christ so when I saw this mini version specific to Christmas as a freebie for Kindle I downloaded it immediately. It was a short but informative read. I learned a few things and it helped to put me in the Christmas spirit. "

" Somewhat of a rehash of the case for Christ, but definitely fitting for this time of year. "

" LOL!!! I read this last year and totally read it again. It was so good then the second time!! I want to give it as Christmas presents this year. (1-10-09) "

" Repackage of Case for Christ. Not new, but as it had been a few years since I read the original, it was good to be reminded of Christ's preeminence. "

" Good, quick book from Lee Strobel. Not nearly as in-depth as The Case for Christ, but enough to give you a taste of how Strobrel writes these books. If you're mildly interested in the science behind Christianity, this is a good introductory book. "

" Quick read that makes a solid case for the historical truth of Jesus. "

" Not one of strobel's best. The subject matter was not to write a whole book...maybe a long essay "

" This is a good book for those who have doubts about the Christmas story as told in the Bible. The author in trying to disprove the story, finds that it is true. "

" Although I accept the identity of Jesus Christ on faith, it was interesting to read all the historical evidence of His birth, life, death, and resurrection. "

" I mean it was good and all, but it was basically just a repeat of the Case for Christ. "

" I love the way Strobel builds his case, very logical and convincing.I also learned a few things I didn't know before. "

" I would recommend this book to everyone because it shows you the facts and history records that there really is a God, and that Jesus came to earth to save us from our sins. This guy did a great job on this book. "

" Actually read this after I read "Case for Faith." Lee Strobel writes a good book as he goes around interviewing some great Christian men and women, and making... well, a case for Jesus Christ as the Messiah. I couldn't put it down. Again, a must read for every Christian. "

" Highly recommended for believers and atheists! "

" Hokum and pseudo science, rife with quote mining and "experts" giving testimony outside of their field of expertise. "

" I read this book a while ago, but I still remember the lack of supporting evidence and weak journalism. I have no interest in rereading it :)! "

" Wow! Great Story of Lee's personal search. I highly recommend it! "

" Well written and well thought out. Good book! "

" I've turned to this book, and the two others by Strobel, when I've hit rough patches and needed to be convinced that God is really there. This book is compelling, well-written, and just makes me feel better. "

" I like Strobel more than I like the book. The book is just really light Christian apologetics.Strobel's television interview show, Faith Under Fire, however was brilliant. One of the smartest and most interesting television shows I've seen. "

" Most tedious book I have ever tried to read, I probably won't even finish it. "
