<p>Hello World,</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">My mind is never far from thinking about Jesus Christ and His love for me and you&#8230;But during this week, Holy Week, I hope all of us intentionally reflect on the ultimate price Jesus Christ paid in sacrificing His life for us.

<p class="x_p5" style="text-align: justify;"><span class="x_s1">A hard-driving<b> </b>journalist, Lee Strobel was exactly where he expected to be at work: on top. His award-winning investigative reporting recently earned him a promotion to legal editor at the <i>Chicago Tribune</i>. But things weren’t going nearly as well at home where his wife Leslie’s newfound faith in <span id="0.3452347057340416" class="highlight">Christ</span> went against everything Lee believed—or didn’t believe—as an avowed atheist.  <img loading="lazy" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-15847" src="https://www.afterthealtarcall.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/crowd-300x158.jpeg" alt="" width="300" height="158" srcset="https://www.afterthealtarcall.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/crowd-300x158.jpeg 300w, https://www.afterthealtarcall.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/crowd-768x405.jpeg 768w, https://www.afterthealtarcall.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/crowd-760x401.jpeg 760w, https://www.afterthealtarcall.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/crowd-518x273.jpeg 518w, https://www.afterthealtarcall.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/crowd-82x43.jpeg 82w, https://www.afterthealtarcall.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/crowd-600x316.jpeg 600w, https://www.afterthealtarcall.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/crowd.jpeg 1000w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /><br />

<p class="x_p5" style="text-align: justify;">&#8211;&#8220;I am so glad that Lee&#8217;s powerful, moving story has finally been made into a film that is equally compelling. It is honest and real, and I highly recommend it.&#8221; &#8211; <b>Kathie Lee Gifford</b></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8211;&#8220;It was so good that I was sorry when it was over. Just awesome, from beginning to end.&#8221; &#8211; <b>David Limbaugh</b>, author of <i>Jesus on Trial</i> and <i>The True Jesus</i></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8211;&#8220;This is one of the most powerful evangelistic movies I have ever seen! It connects on every level—logically and emotionally.&#8221; &#8211; <b>Greg Laurie, </b>author and pastor</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8211;“This movie is a must-see. If you are a follower of <span id="0.6700731426496775" class="highlight">Christ</span>, it will strengthen your faith. If you are a skeptic, it will address your questions. If you are an atheist, it will meet you where you are and invite you to take another look.&#8221; &#8211; <b>Sheila Walsh</b>, best-selling author, singer</p>
