    ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
    "The Case for Christ" by Lee Strobel follows the author's journey as a skeptical journalist investigating the truth of Christianity. Strobel interviews various experts, including scholars in history, archaeology, and medicine, to analyze the evidence for Jesus. He examines the reliability of the Gospels, the historical accounts of Jesus' life, and the claims surrounding his death and resurrection. The book presents a rigorous analysis, using tests for historical accuracy and evidence, similar to a legal investigation. The core of the book focuses on whether the evidence can support the claims of Christianity or if the entire story of Jesus is nothing more than a collection of myths and legends. The book provides arguments for the historicity of the key events of the New Testament, while raising doubts and counter arguments.
