Atheist-turned-Christian
Lee Strobel, the former award-winning legal editor of
The Chicago Tribune
and a
New York Times best-selling author of
The Case for Christ
and numerous other books, will be the keynote speaker at Trinity Christian
Academy’s 25
th Anniversary Legacy Dinner and Auction on April 7.
After investigating the evidence for Jesus’ claims, Strobel became a Christian in 1981. The film, The Case for Christ, is a portrayal of Strobel’s spiritual journey from atheism to faith. Starring Academy Award winner Faye Dunaway, the film debuted in theaters nationwide in April 2017, garnering a rare A+ from Cinemascore.
In addition to Strobel, the Legacy Dinner will celebrate Trinity Christian Academy’s twenty-fifth anniversary. TCA Head of School Mike Skaggs said, “All of us at TCA look forward to celebrating this important milestone in the life of our school with friends and family from across our area.” The evening begins at 6:00 and includes dinner, live and silent auctions, and proclamations from the City of Willow Park and the state of Texas.
Given the popularity of the film and Strobel's books among the strong Christian presence in Parker County, TCA invites the community to join in this inspirational evening. Sponsorships are available starting at $1,000 with individual tickets going on sale in early 2018.
Strobel
serves as Professor of Christian Thought at Houston Baptist University and as a
Teaching Pastor at Woodlands Church. His latest book is The Case for Grace,
which received the 2016 Christian Book Award for Nonfiction. Strobel also
co-authored Becoming a Contagious Christian, a course which has trained
a million-and-a-half Christians on how to naturally and effectively talk with
others about Jesus.
