Proof of God

For the past 2 months I have been reading 3 books by author Lee Strobel titled "The Case for Christ", "The Case for Faith", and "The Case for a Creator".  The best way to describe these books is that they are written by a journalist who was a hardcore atheist, but became a Christian when challenged to examine the evidence for whether or not Jesus truly was, and is, the Son of God.  His books provide thoughtful examinations for such proof. 

I read these books because I have been a Christian most of my life, but have never felt like I could speak to particular questions that some non-Christians might have about the faith.  I could speak to my own personal experiences which have proven to me that God exists, but I wanted to be able to speak to more than that.  I have therefore read these books and am now going to blog about the points made in them.  I have always found I learn best when I write things out, but I also want these thoughts recorded to serve as a guide for my daughter, for it is my hope that one day she will be interested in doing her own research as she makes decisions pertaining to what she believes and how she will live her life. 

I also write out my thoughts for anyone else who is interested.  As I mentioned, I have been a Christian for a long time and have enjoyed studying the Bible and growing closer to God through it, but the study I have done through Lee Strobel's exhaustive research has been fascinating, and has truly strengthened my faith.  I hope others can find a similar interest.
