Jesus said that we must love him with all of our minds, heart, soul, and strength (Matthew 22:37). There are many devotionals out there that focus on loving Jesus with heart and soul, but very few address loving him with our minds. The Case For Christ: Daily Moment of Truth by Lee Strobel and Mark Mittelberg is one that fills the void, and does so very effectively.
I have little doubt that you have either read other work by Lee Strobel, or seen the popular film The Case For Christ. This devotional follows a similar format, and examines why we are here. It does so in very general terms at first then moves into more advanced apologetics content. Each apologetics devotional is only around two pages long. As a result, topics are only discussed very briefly. It would behoove the ready to look into longer works that go into detail regarding these more complex subject. The book is 360 pages long and includes subjects such as science meeting scripture, reincarnation, the divinity of Christ, and historical evidences for the faith. There is very little uncovered, and wets the appetite of these subjects.
This book is good if you are wanting a brief 5-6 minute overview of scripture and apologetics content. IF you are looking for an in depth explanation about the proofs of the resurrection this is not the book, and this is not the intent or design of the book. It is meant to strengthen one’s faith with basic apologetics that will assist in one defending Christianity. With that is does a pretty good job. 4/5 stars.
