[CALIBK12] The Case for a Creator...Lee Strobel

I checked Booklist online and found this:

Strobel, Lee. The Case for Faith: A Journalist Investigates the Toughest 
Objections to Christianity. 2000 
Reviewed in Booklist, October 1, 2000. Page 307

Booklist is always my first choice for reviews.   If it is reviewed there, it 
is recommended.     I can't fathom why one would have to rely on donations to 
buy in the 200s.   I never did.   We are not forbidden discussions of 
religion, we are only asked for balance.

Do you buy "Christian fiction"?

What are your thoughts on this email I got from a teacher:
  
  
 A teacher writes:
  
 i was talking to a kid about a book where an atheist sets out to disprove 
religion/ faith ect.. i told him that i saw a dvd of a book where an 
editorialist who was an atheist set out to do the same thing and ended up becoming a 
believer in a supreme being/ creator based on scientific probability - he spoke to 
physicists, geologist, biologist , chemists and astronomers. first of all, am 
i within my rights to talk to this kid about this? I kept the conversation 
stricktly based on the discussions about the book in question. second, i want to 
know if its possible to order the books and or dvd's of his series. The 
author's name is Lee Strobel and the books in question are :
 The Case for a Creator, The Case for Jesus, and The Case for the Real Jesus.
