"Ben Hur"

In the 1800s, Lew Wallace - general, politician, and unbeliever - was challenged to write a book which would expose Jesus as a fraud. As Wallace researched his material, he became engrossed in Jesus’ life. Something happened to him. He looked for a fraud and found himself worshiping with the Magi. The book he wrote was the great Christian novel, "Ben Hur."
