 search for truth? April 6, 2008
Ryan Kulla (Murrieta, CA USA)

I didn't find this documentary a riveting search for truth at all. It seemed obvious that the whole point of the 'investigation' was to end up with him converted and to make money off of it by releasing it as 'a case FOR christ'. If that marketing angle alone didn't turn me off then I would say it's more a movie about a guy who wanted his family to stay together and thrive so much that he convinced HIMSELF that all this Jesus stuff was true. He certainly didn't do anything to make me feel more convinced.

Lee Strobel has done it again. A wondeful book, well documented and written for easy reading. You will enjoy this book......
 A brief visual preview of the book March 22, 2008

This movie is good to share with friends and family but only reveals part of what you get out of the book. If you haven't read the book, I highly recommend you get that. Much more detail in the book. Doesn't mean not to get the video. I think this video is more of a teaser for the book.
A Great Introduction to Christian Apologetics March 16, 2008

Lee Strobel has done the Christian community-and indeed, the world, a service with this DVD. I was extremely impressed with both the content and the production values. The video is a great introduction to Christian apologetics both for the ordinary "man or woman in the pew" and the "ordinary skeptic."
To claims that the film is biased, of course it is. It's an apologetic documentary after all. But it is nevertheless a balanced overview, or summary, of the evidence for the truth claims of the NT. This documentary isn't any more biased than the TV documentaries that usually air on the cable channels (A&E; THC; DSV; TLC; etc.) at Christmas and Easter which are typically aimed at a popular audience and biased against the truth claims of the NT and which usually cater to the sensational and bizarre. Strobel's DVD, should serve as a nice to counterpoint to all the quack popular scholarship out there. True, the film doesn't get too technical, however it doesn't need to. Anyone interested in delving deeper can check out the books listed in the bibliography, many of them written by the very scholars interviewed in the film.
I think every church would benefit by screening this DVD for its members.

Before you look at the two stars I gave and you are a christian, I personally believe jesus was who he was and that is that, but Lee Strobel does not and I mean DOES NOT give the other side a chance to state what they believe, instead he takes the "The God who wasn't there" approach and interviews people on the street as the opposition; then he goes to people he knows that are Christians to make christ's case. It was disappointing. It would have been better had he put people who didn't believe in christ and that were also reputable people. I hate to say it but it wasn't very good.
