Description

Lee Strobel, former award-winning legal editor of the Chicago Tribune , is a New York Times bestselling author whose books have sold millions of copies worldwide. Lee earned a journalism degree at the University of Missouri and was awarded a Ford Foundation fellowship to study at Yale Law School, where he received a Master of Studies in Law degree. He was a journalist for fourteen years at the Chicago Tribune and other newspapers, winning Illinois’ top honors for investigative reporting (which he shared with a team he led) and public service journalism from United Press International. Lee also taught First Amendment Law at Roosevelt University. A former atheist, he served as a teaching pastor at three of America’s largest churches. Lee and his wife, Leslie, have been married for more than fifty years and live in Texas. Their daughter, Alison, and son, Kyle, are also authors. Website: www.leestrobel.com As Willow Creek Community Church's key evangelism leader for over sixteen years, Garry Poole is the innovator of seeker small groups and a strategist of creative outreach initiatives. Passionate about reaching people for Christ, Garry and his team have trained thousands of leaders to launch seeker small groups in their own settings. His award-winning book, Seeker Small Groups, provides a detailed blueprint for facilitating small group discussions that assist spiritual seekers with investigating Christianity. He also wrote The Complete Book of Questions, a collection of 1001 conversation starters and numerous group study guides including The Three Habits of Highly Contagious Christians; The Tough Questions Series, and Experiencing the Passion of Jesus (with Lee Strobel) to accompany Mel Gibson’s film, The Passion of the Christ. In 2005, it became the first discussion guide ever to receive the prestigious Charles “Kip” Jordon Christian Book of the Year award. Garry lives in suburban Chicago.

I am sure this is a wonderful study guide

I am sure this is a wonderful study guide, if you have the book. I thought this was the book. Nothing about the description said this is a study guide. They must have changed it, as it says it now. Now I have to order the actual book......again. Irritating.

This was misleading. When I searched the title of the book this was the first thing that popped up. It's almost like they wanted me to mistakenly buy this rather than the book.

Great Book!

AWESOME book!
Very detailed, easy to read, thorough and doesn't just use the bible to prove the bible, he looks outside of the bible at the culture and history of the time of Jesus.
Great Book.
Read it even if you are not skeptical and if you are as well.
