In 1998, Lee Strobel, a reporter for the Chicago Tribune and a graduate of Yale Law School, published “The Case for Christ: A Journalist’s Personal Investigation of the Evidence for Jesus.” Strobel had formerly been an atheist and was compelled by his wife’s conversion to evangelical Christianity to refute the key Christian claims about Jesus. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In His Steps opens in the study of Reverend Henry Maxwell as he attempts to compose his regular Sunday sermon.
