Faith, apologetics, and the supernatural with Lee Strobel — The Christian Parenting Podcast - Motherhood, Teaching kids about Jesus, Intentional parenting, Raising Christian kids

Hello Friends,

This week’s episode is incredibly special to me. I’m joined by Lee Strobel , whose book The Case for Christ played a huge role in reigniting my faith back in college. Getting to sit down with him felt like a full-circle moment—and I can’t wait for you to hear this conversation. Lee shares his personal journey from atheism to belief, and we dive into the fascinating topic of the supernatural side of our faith.

Here are four key takeaways from this episode:

Lee explains how miracles, dreams, and near-death experiences can deepen our faith and point to the truth of God’s presence.
Helping our kids truly know Scripture equips them to grow in faith and navigate the world confidently.
Parents need to model and teach their kids how to ask hard questions and defend their faith with both truth and grace.
Lee’s story reminds us that belief in Jesus is not blind—it’s grounded in reason, evidence, and personal transformation.

Lee Strobel is a former award-winning legal editor for The Chicago Tribune who became a Christian after investigating the claims of Christianity. He’s the bestselling author of The Case for Christ , The Case for Faith , and his latest book, Seeing the Supernatural , which explores spiritual encounters from a biblical worldview. Today, Lee is passionate about helping others discover the truth of the gospel.

This conversation will equip and encourage you as a parent to raise kids who love Jesus, trust his Word, and stand firm in their faith. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

With love,

Steph
