The movie is compelling on so many levels. It was refreshing to see a journalist actually dig for a story and admit when he makes a mistake! The story is about Lee Strobel and his efforts to research and debunk the ‘myth’ of Christianity and faith. He is a writer and a seeker of truth from beginning to end.
And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.
Jeremiah 29:13
If you are paying attention you can almost see the hound of heaven pounding on the door of his heart. You can see the prayers of his wife materialize on the screen. You can feel the agony of a man’s journey to find the truth even when it defies all he has built his life around.
Don’t miss this movie when it is in your area. You and your entire family will enjoy and probably learn something too. Did I mention there is a subplot that is as compelling as the main story. It revolves around a court case and a media story that causes his conviction wrongfully. I wonder how many of us would have had the courage to admit we were wrong and correct the matter?
