The Da Vinci Code has grown from popular fiction to cultural phenomenon - inciting controversy and raising questions on all sides...

And people are looking for answers.

On Friday, May 19 the movie release will generate a wave of fresh interest in the provocative topics raised by The Da Vinci Code, and your church will have the opportunity to bring truth to the center of it!

CCN invites you to spark a life-changing spiritual discussion in your community by hosting Unlocking the Da Vinci Code on Sunday,

May 21.

This major outreach event is designed for both Christians and seekers who have read the book, seen the movie, or are curious about the tremendous response to this popular work of fiction.

In light of the sweeping success of The Da Vinci Code book and the anticipated impact of the movie, this could be the largest outreach event CCN has ever presented!

Hosted by Lee Strobel and Mark Mittelberg, this 90-minute broadcast will open with footage of Lee at the Louvre Museum in Paris, the site of the fictional murder that opens The Da Vinci Code.

Then, Dr. Erwin Lutzer, senior pastor of the historic Moody Church in Chicago and author of The Da Vinci Deception will address the historical issues raised by both the book and movie.

Mark, Lee, and Dr. Lutzer will wrap up the event with a live, interactive Q&A session for the satellite audience.

Don't miss this rare opportunity to invite seekers into an ongoing and life-changing dialogue about the spiritual, historical, and biblical issues raised by The Da Vinci Code.
