Publisher's summary

Read by the author.

Lee Strobel, former atheist and legal editor of the Chicago Tribune, weaves together the latest evidence from a range of brilliant scientific and philosophical minds to answer the most consequential question of all time.

"Is God real?"

More than two hundred times a second, around the world, questions about God's existence are being typed into search engines. Google alone provides nearly 4 million results to that single question.

The topic of the existence of a Creator has enormous implications on our lives, including whether or not we have free will, if there's any such thing as an afterlife, and whether or not there's any basis for human morality.

In Is God Real?, Lee Strobel—author of the New York Times bestselling book, The Case for Christ—pulls together material from his previous books to create this updated rational exploration of the proof of God's existence and the basis of our hope.

Writing to skeptics, believers, and anyone who's ever gone through (or is going through) periods of doubt and disillusionment, Lee turns his critical mind and expert interview skills to perennial questions such as:

  • If God is real, why is there so much suffering?
  • How do we know which God is real?
  • If God is real, why does he seem so hidden?
  • How do recent scientific findings support the claim that God is real?
  • If God is real, what difference does it make?

Is God Real? is a life-changing exploration of the inquiry at the center of our being.

Recommended readings and discussion questions are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Best Question of All Time!

Lee kept me riveted like most of his books have and like always he asks all the best questions and he relates the answers intelligently enough for my intellect to easily grasp without being over my simple understanding. I think that this is his best yet. And I’ve read and listened to them all.

Proof for atheists!

I found Lee Strobel’s approach to interviewing scientists and unpacking what the scientific community believes as extremely helpful to refer this book to my atheist friends who are scientifically minded, and look for proof for their conclusions. I’m praying their minds are open to following the data wherever it leads. In this case, I believe it leads to the conclusion God is real! From there, Lee Strobel provides wonderful evidence of monotheism, and that Jesus is truly the one God who has created all things, proven by his resurrection. His grace and desire to know us personally is evidenced by the moral compass he’s given each of us to find Him when we seek Him when we search for Him with all our heart! Thank you Lee Strobel and the Zondervan team for answering the cry for the answer to this top search engine question!

Outstanding research and convincing evidence.

The depth of detail and extent of interviews with highly qualified & experienced professionals in their respective fields makes this a believable book and touches home to a skeptic like me. The narration by the author was superb!

God is in the details

That’s what Lee Strobel has accomplished here, revealing the details of arguments for and against belief in a Creator God. If you wonder, I invite you delve into this book and take notes, because you will be challenged to hold onto your disbelief!

Believe the Bible

I have read all of Lee’s books. I especially like his investigative approach and conclusions except in one area. Genesis tells us that the all-powerful God created everything in six days. If you believe in the Big Bang billions of years ago, you do not believe God’s word. You insult his ability to create all the universe in one moment and make it "time correct" for our viewing and understanding, and to demonstrate His glory. You have to believe the great flood was worldwide with tumultuous, catastrophic resurfacing of the entire planet (see the Grand Canyon for evidence).

You have to believe ALL of the Bible. God was the ONLY eyewitness. Scientists only theorize based on their current grants (see also climate change...).

God IS Real

God IS Real!

Firstly, Lee Strobel is a wonderful writer and narrator. He provides candid, honest, and trustworthy information. All the experts he interviewed are some of the most intelligent and educated people ever!

Secondly, I enjoyed reading his books with him! His voice is soothing and comforting. This is the second book of his that I read. I'm about to start my third book!

Why did I turn to Lee Strobel?
I went on a personal journey to form a deeper and stronger relationship with God with Jesus Christ. Lee Strobel and all of those he featured, all the experts in his books, helped make that happen for me.

Read his books. Read WITH Lee Strobel! He is an honest, safe, secure, and caring hand to hold onto in your quest for answers.

For those who wonder or for those who are unsure... God IS Real! Jesus Christ IS Real! ♡

Well done!

Thoughtful yet easy to listen to. Lee does not look down on those with opposing views but simply presents the arguments

He points out the inescapable truth of the existence of God

I found the beginning a little hard to follow since I am not a scientist but the message was never lost on me. I found the historical facts so amazingly compelling and the philosophical debate cement my faith in God almighty. My prayer is that this book finds its way into the hands and hearts of so many more people who can come to know God is real and he loves you.

Best apologetics book!

Well-researched., thought-provoking and fun, Lee Strobel‘s voice, exudes joy, and excitement in detailing why God is real. This is a book for every person, no matter what point they are at in their journey with God. It may help those at the beginning, move forward more easily, and those more convicted, be able to put words what is already felt.
