insightful look into christians and our faith

Some key areas for me in this book included: 1) the perspective of non-Christians about Christians (and how it affects the way we engage), 2) testimony and narrative describing the way love manifests itself in true Christian actions, 3) conversation about "The Golden Rule", 4) how the minute we profess Christ in our lives we will be observed by others (and the way our character can paint us as self-righteous or hypocritical... or humble, blind sinners who makes mistakes and need a Saviour [thank God we have One!!!]) and 5) Lee's classic conversation of proofs of the empty tomb and other supporting arguments. This last point is not a dwelling place, but a resonable stop along the way, and I think that any book that supports Christian faith should encourage and support others in whatever way is consistent with the core theme of the book. As a frequent traveller, this book has been great company on the road, and I recommend it.

The whole world should listen to this

As I listen to this book It was as if I entered a wormhole time was irrelevant at the end of the book I was sitting there crying with the realization that Jesus Christ is God

God's Outrageious Claims

I found this to be an outstanding overview of the promises of God to His people and practical application of the Bible teachings for the 21st century. The fact that Strobles began as an atheist strengthens his testimony and teachings.

A better understanding

The way Lee explains " God's Outrageous Claims", not only gave me a better understanding of God, but A understand of myself with God.

A thoughtful example-filled book

At first I was skeptical about starting the book since the title suggested a preachy approach. But I was pleasantly surprised by how thoughtful it was, supported by a lot of references and examples. I was particularly touched by the real life applications and heartbreaking stories. Be prepared to be impacted by the book.

Great book, full of the power of God.

Ask Jesus into your life and see what happens. He protested me thru Vietnam and Desert Shield and Desert Storm. While looking back I see how much the Holly Spirit protected me in life and in war. Praise God.
