Who is Lee Strobel and what is his background?
Lee Strobel. Welcome to the show. Thanks, Sean. Great to be with you. I'm honored to have you here.
I'm honored to be here. I watch your show and love the way you engage with your guests. So I thought, hey, that sounds like it'd be a fun experience. So I'm glad to be here.
Well, thank you. Thank you for saying that. So sorry about the wait. I get nervous for every one of these interviews. So half the time when I say I'm down there going through my outline, I'm just procrastinating. But no, seriously, though, we've been trying to get a hold of you for over a year now. And we finally got you. And so I've just, I've been really anticipating this interview and it's just, you've been a major part in my journey to faith. And I know you don't know that, but as I'm sure you have been for millions and millions of people. And so it is truly an honor to have you here.
I appreciate it. It's been a great adventure. You know, if you told me, you know, years ago that I would end up not only being a Christian but telling other people about Jesus, I would have slammed the door in your face. I would not have anticipated this at all.
Yeah. Well, I can't wait to dive into that. So we're going to release this episode on Christmas. Probably it'll be either Christmas Eve or Christmas, but we haven't decided yet. But I've been wanting to do this, like I said, since last year. And so to have it here in time to get it edited for Christmas is... I think you're just the perfect guest. Oh, thanks. So I want to dive into your backstory, some of the books you've written, especially Case for Christ. And I want to... I'm learning here. So I'm a very curious person. I use my curiosity in all of my interviews. And... The thing that I'm most curious about more than anything, any of the other stuff that I interview is Jesus Christ and the Bible. And so if you can help me, I would like to keep...
We're going to go into some dark places. I'm sure we're going to go into some rabbit holes, but overall, I really want to talk about who is Jesus Christ and what does he mean to you and the rest of Christianity. And so if you could- My favorite subject. Good, good. Mine too. Good, good. So, and like I said, I'm learning. I'm learning.
We all are. We all are.
I read the Bible. And most of the time, I'm just being honest, I have no idea what I just read. And so I have a bunch of different versions. I've been diving into this one called the Action Bible. I haven't heard of that one. It's more like a comic. There's like little comic book sections in there. But they have little snippets that break it down for dummies like me.
I like that.
And it helps. It helps. But I can't wait to get your perspective on some of this stuff. Sure. So, but Lee, I know we did this at breakfast, but I would love, I would be honored and I would love to kick this off with a prayer. Yeah. And have you lead it.
Yeah, I'd love to. Let me pray. Father, thank you for Sean. Thank you that you've given him this curiosity about you, about faith, about issues that really, really matter. Thank you that you've given him a platform where he can take people along with him on that journey and that we can all explore and discover together. And we do pray for your blessing on our conversation, that it would be encouraging, that it would be illuminating, that, you know, dare I even pray it, that it'd be life-changing for some people. We pray this in Jesus' name.
Amen. Amen. I would like to add just a couple things. I just, you know, it's been a, it's been a, some turbulent times in the world and in the and in our country, the United States. And I just want everybody to have a really good Merry Christmas this year and hope it's filled with family and love. And Lee, just some of the things that we spoke about at breakfast in your family, I just hope you guys find some answers and relief. And amen. Amen. Thank you. Thank you. Sure. So everybody starts with an introduction here. So you have... quite the background, so we abbreviate it.
