Lee Strobel was an atheist. He also was a journalist. He set out to disprove christianity and eventually decided to become a christian. Anyway in The Case For Faith, he writes about what he calls the eight "heart" barriers to faith. To summarize, 1) If there is a Loving God why is there suffering? 2) If miracles contradict science, how can a rational person believe? 3) If God is morally pure, How can he sanction the slaughter of innocent children in the OT? 4) If Jesus is the only way, what about people that have never heard of Him? 5) If God cares about people, how could he let them go to hell? 6) If God is the ultimate overseer of the chruch, why has it been rife with hypocrisy and brutality throughout the ages? 7)If God really created the universe, why does the evidence of science compel so many towards evolution? 8) If I'm still plagued by doubts, then is it still possible to be a christian? Wndering if any atheists have read this book, and what they thought about it.
