The Case For Christ, based on Lee Strobel’s best-selling book about his own journey as an award-winning investigative journalist and resolute atheist who sets out to disprove Christianity, will be released as a film next year.
In 1980, Lee Strobel’s award-winning investigative reporting earned him a promotion to legal editor at the Chicago Tribune. Things at home weren’t going nearly as well. His wife Leslie’s newfound faith in Christ compels Lee to utilise his journalistic and legal training to disprove the claims of Christianity – pitting his resolute atheism against her growing faith.
Mr Strobel says that while the book “lays out the overwhelming foundation of evidence from which personal faith can rise”, “[t]he film gives the dramatic story behind the story of a man with personal animosity for Christianity who used journalistic and legal techniques to evaluate its claims”. “The Case For Christ takes audiences on an exciting journey from scepticism to belief.”
The Case For Christ stars Mike Vogel, Erika Christensen and Academy Award winner Faye Dunaway. Directed by Jonathan M Gunn, the film is set to be released by Pure Flix and Triple Horse Studios in the northern-hemisphere spring.
