The Case for a Creator
the film
This 60-minute program is a compelling adaptation of Lee Strobel's personal journey from atheism to faith in God… a journey in search of the truth about intelligent design in the universe.
As a high school freshman, Lee Strobel became convinced that God did not exist. Only the hard, empirical evidence of science could be trusted—and it appeared to point to a universe created by purely materialistic processes. Time, chance, and Darwinian evolution.
This atheistic worldview deeply influenced Strobel’s academic years and early career as an award-winning journalist for the Chicago Tribune. Then, in 1980, his wife’s conversion to Christianity led him on an intensive search for the truth about God. Not surprisingly, he began with science.
What do the discoveries of modern biology, physics, cosmology, and astronomy really tell us about the origin of life and the universe? When objectively considered, does contemporary scientific evidence point toward or away from a supernatural Creator? Strobel interviewed scientists and scholars from a wide range of disciplines for the answers.
