Hey y'all and welcome to the Healthy by Heather Brown podcast, where I encourage you in healthy,

mind, body, and spirit through my Sunday reset.

Let's get into it.

Today's guest is someone whose story feels like a divine plot quest, an atheist journalist who

set out to disprove Jesus and instead

found him. Lee Strobel, the best-selling author of The Case for Christ, is joining us today to

dive deep into the evidence, the wonder, and the hope of the Christmas story through his latest

book, The Case for Christmas. If you've ever wrestled with doubt like me,

if your faith has felt more intellectual than intimate, or if you just want to experience Christmas

with a heart wide open to awe again, this one is for you. We're talking about what it means to

move from skepticism to surrender, angels and demons, why the nativity story still shakes the foundations of history

and how modern culture's craving for meaning points straight back to that manger in Bethlehem.

So grab your peppermint protein shake, get cozy by the twinkle lights, and let's explore

the intersection of faith, evidence, and the miracle that changed the world with Lee

Strobel. So I'm so pumped about talking with you today. This is kind of like a random tangent, but my husband doesn't get that, like, excited or intrigued by most of my guests. But when I told him I was interviewing you, he was like, what? He was like, as soon as your podcast is over, please send me the recording so I can listen to it a way home for. That's funny. Well, tell them high for me.

I will. I will. Too great. Well, I have to tell you that I listen. So, again, a side tangent,

but we just flew back from Greece a couple of days ago. So my brain is a little scrambled, jet lagged all the things. But on the way back, I actually, because I wanted to research, you know, more of what you've been talking about recently and what have you. So I just typed your name in Apple Podcast to see it would come up. Yeah. And your interview with Tucker Carlson came up. Oh, yeah. And I listened to the whole, I think it was like almost two-hour thing on the flight. And I was like, furiously taking notes in my phone. It was so good. That's awesome. Yeah, that was fun. Yes. So you'll have to forgive me if I do bring in like some of those type of things into our questions today because I was like, this is good stuff.

Yeah, yeah.

Lee, your story never stops inspiring me. You're an investigative journalist who set out

to disprove Christianity only to end up finding Jesus. So looking back now, how does it feel

to still be uncovering new evidence for Christ, especially as we head

into the Christmas season?
