Lee Strobel

Der US-amerikanische Journalist und evangelikale Publizist Lee Strobel (* 1952) war Gerichtsberichterstatter bei der Chicago Tribune, bevor er nach seiner Hinwendung zum Christentum als Pastor und Autor tätig wurde. Er steht für eine populäre, im Interviewformat verfasste Glaubensverteidigung und erlangte vor allem durch seinen Bestseller „Der Fall Jesus“ internationale Bekanntheit. Für Bibelleser bietet sein Werk leicht verständliche Argumente für die Zuverlässigkeit der Evangelien, wobei Kritiker aus Wissenschaft und säkularem Umfeld bemängeln, dass seine Darstellungen Gegenpositionen vernachlässigen und einseitig konservative Gelehrte heranziehen.
