THE Case
FOR A Creator

Mark Mittelberg,
Executive Director of Evangelism, Willow Creek Association
Dr. Stephen C. Meyer,
Director and Senior Fellow of the Center for Science and Culture at the Discovery Institute




Lee Strobel likes to check things out. A professional journalist with a legal education from Yale Law School, he has lived by the old journalistic adage: “If your mother says she loves you, find another source to confirm it.”

The award-winning author of the best-selling and heavily researched The Case for Christ and The Case for Faith has recently tackled The Case for a Creator. In this special CCN broadcast based on his latest book, Lee will share the results of his in-depth investigation into how the universe began.

You’ll discover how the latest scientific evidence refutes popularly accepted theories of naturalism and instead points to a world created by an intelligent designer.

Lee will share how:

  • Astronomers are discovering that the Earth is anything but the unremarkable planet of popular science lore. It may very well be utterly unique in its ability to support intelligent life in an otherwise lethal universe. 
  • Cosmologists agree that the universe arose suddenly out of absolute nothingness.
  • Biologists that continue to probe the cell become more amazed at its intricacies — complexities so staggering that they confound all naturalistic attempts to explain life’s origins.

Once, science and Christianity seemed light years apart. Yet today, increasing numbers of scientists are coming to the conclusion that the world looks well designed because it really is designed.

This broadcast is ideal for the people in your church to invite their seeking and even skeptical friends to. They’ll be amazed at what they discover. From the fields of cosmology, physics, astronomy, biochemistry, DNA research, and the study of human consciousness, Lee will share what more and more scientists are discovering about The Case for a Creator.

Lee Strobel is the award-winning author of such best sellers as The Case for Christ, The Case for Faith, and Surviving a Spiritual Mismatch in Marriage (co-authored with his wife, Leslie). His latest book, The Case for a Creator, looks at the latest evidence that is pointing more and more people to the God of creation. A former atheist and journalist, Lee has served as a Teaching Pastor at two of the country's largest and most-influential churches: Willow Creek and Saddleback.

Mark Mittelberg is the Executive Director of Evangelism for the Willow Creek Association and a frequent teacher on CCN broadcasts, partnering with Lee Strobel to lead CCN’s evangelism track. He is the author Building a Contagious Church, the primary author of the best-selling Becoming a Contagious Christian curriculum, and contributing editor of The Journey, an NIV Bible with notes designed for spiritual seekers.

Stephen C. Meyer is the Director and Senior Fellow of the Center for Science and Culture at the Discovery Institute in Seattle . He earned his Ph.D. in the History and Philosophy of Science from Cambridge University . He has co-written or edited two books: Darwinism, Design, and Public Education and Science and Evidence of Design in the Universe.
