My Take
What fascinates me about Lee Strobel is the journalistic spine running through everything he does. A former investigative reporter trained at Yale, he turned the same evidence-hunting reflexes inward to interrogate the very claims of his faith, and that methodical curiosity is rarer than the conclusions he reached. I find the framing more compelling than the answers themselves. Whether or not you share his beliefs, there is something admirable about a writer willing to subject his own convictions to cross-examination. The string of ECPA awards suggests he found a large audience hungry for that reporter's approach to questions most people simply assume.
