Discover solid answers to the provocative questions you have been asking about the supernatural world--healings, angels, demons, mystical dreams, near-death experiences, heaven, hell, and more--through the investigative work of a former spiritual skeptic.
We hear stories all the time about the supernatural--miraculous healings, unexplained sightings, near-death experiences--but how do we know what is real? Are rumors of spiritual beings, healings, and prophetic dreams dangerous deceptions, or is there something important for us to explore?

In Seeing the Supernatural, Lee weaves together his best material from several previous books with dynamic new and never-published interviews to investigate what the Bible really teaches about the unseen world.
As he asks scholars the very questions you have about otherworldly experiences, Lee will help you:
Written for skeptics and believers alike, Seeing the Supernatural is a transformative exploration of how the supernatural can shape our understanding of God's character and our own faith.

Goes In Search Of The Greatest Event Of History
THE PROJECT: To determine whether there is credible evidence that Jesus of Nazareth is truly the Son of God.

THE STORY: While reflecting on his personal spiritual journey, Strobel interviews the experts, posing questions that are difficult and very direct: How reliable is the New Testament? Is there extrabiblical evidence about Jesus? Is there any reason to believe that the resurrection was indeed a historical fact? ...
