3. "The Case for Christ" grossed $14,682,684 (Pure Flix and Triple Horse Studios)

"The Case for Christ," based on Lee Strobel's best-selling book of the same name, explores Strobel's journey as an unwavering atheist who used his skills as an award-winning investigative journalist to try and disprove Christianity. His findings, however, led him to become a believer in Christ.

According to the film's synopsis, the movie "draws on the true story of Lee and Leslie Strobel, whose marriage struggled mightily as her growing faith collided with his determined atheism. The dramatic retelling of their journey offers heart and a human touch on the in-depth research Lee Strobel conducted."
