4.0 out of 5 stars The Case Against the Da Vinci Code, May 7 2006
By Roger N. Overton - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Exploring the Da Vinci Code: Investigating the Issues Raised by the Book & Movie (Paperback)
Similar to Lee Strobel's "Case for..." books, Exploring the Da Vinci Code takes an investigative approach interviewing Christian scholars about controversial issues. The book is an adapted form of the interviews Strobel conducted for the DVD of his Discussing the Da Vinci Code Curriculum Kit. It is essentially the same material with added commentary throughout.

Authors Lee Strobel and Gary Poole boiled the issues down to four categories and interviewed a scholar to deal with each of them. In chapter one, the topic of historical analysis is discussed with historian Paul Maier. The second chapter poses the question "Can we trust the four Gospels?" to New Testament scholar Scot McKnight. Strobel interviews Kathy McReynolds in chapter three about the role of women in Christianity and Jesus' relationship with Mary Magdalene. The final chapter deals with the divinity of Jesus with scholar Mark Strauss.

Just like the discussion guide for the curriculum, the book has questions for reflection interspersed throughout its pages. In the back of the book, again just like the guide, are several appendices that recommend further resources, state the facts, and give arguments for the true identity of Jesus that is affirmed by historic Christianity.

Strobel is known for his investigative journalist approach, which he applied well in these interviews. He asks good questions that provoke good responses form the reputable scholars. Those who enjoyed his "Case for..." books will also enjoy this light read. Though it somewhat deals with "the sacred feminine," it does not really deal with the underlying pagan worldview of Dan Brown's novel. For the most part though, Exploring the Da Vinci Code is a useful little book that shows many of the problems with The Da Vinci Code.

5.0 out of 5 stars Here's the TRUTH about the Da Vinci code, May 5 2006
By J. D. Eliason "jdeliaso" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Exploring the Da Vinci Code: Investigating the Issues Raised by the Book & Movie (Paperback)
Yale Law school trained author Strobel provides a refreshing review of issues raised in the popular Da Vinci Code novel. He uses his skill as a former investigative reporter to interview 4 experts about claims made in the Da Vinci Code. Together, the authors provide a clear, concise, articulate summary of major themes in the Da Vinci Code and investigate whether the issues are based on fact or fiction. If you have read the Da Vinci code and wonder whether the Priory of Sion and the Gnostic Gospels are fact or fiction, or whether Constantine really suppressed truth about Christ, or whether Jesus promoted the "sacred feminine", here is your answer. Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Exposing the Lies, April 17 2006
By E. Ore "Truth Seeker" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Exploring the Da Vinci Code: Investigating the Issues Raised by the Book & Movie (Paperback)
Exploring the Da Vinci Code with the dvd is absolutely great for exposing the lies of the book by Dan Brown.

Lee even includes the FAQ and Evidence for the identity of Jesus based on discussions with real historians in this area of history.

I recommend everyone get this and use it to share the truth with followers of Dan Brown of those duped by him.
