Part 2 includes Luke's Gospel account of Jesus' death and resurrection, including some excerpts from Strobel's "The Case for Christ Study Bible." He then claims that the Gospel writer Luke the physician, is sort of a first century investigative reporter, which is why Lee chooses to use this Gospel specifically to examine the evidence. As a result, he went to church and had a positive experience, which led him to utilize his investigative skills into determining if there really was any truth towards what was all being claimed. ![]() After acting out in lots of unhealthy ways in front of his wife and daughter, his wife became a Christian, which had a huge impact on her attitude and actions as 1 Peter 3:1-7 teaches.

Palmer seemed to have really done his research on the disorder, and I really liked these moments in the book, learning a bit about the disorder with each scene. The characters are all well developed, and the scenes with Penny or one of her alters ( the other personalities, Eve, Chloe, and Ruth ) are chilling to read. The book is a great psychological thriller with its horrific murder, and characters that were unpredictable and unreliable. Her mother, is hell-bent on proving that Penny did not kill Rachel ( her birth mother ) But did she? She is sent to an institute for the criminally insane until her trial. Penny has DID which is short for Disassociative Identity Disorder or what use to be called Multiple Personality Disorder, and she has been found covered in blood, holding a knife kneeling down next to her birth mother's brutally murdered body. ![]() ![]() ![]() Elan Gale, James Flanagan, and Chinaka Hodge will also write on the series, with Adam Fasullo, Intrepid Pictures’ vice president of television, overseeing.
