In this episode of the Cold-Case Christianity Podcast, J. Warner Wallace investigates the evidence as a detective would: beginning not with a theological formula, but with the testimony of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. This episode makes a cumulative Gospel case: Jesus’ death is not merely an inspiring example of sacrificial love, although it is certainly that. The Gospels also portray Him as the innocent, voluntary, obedient Son who gives His life to ransom, forgive, reconcile, and release guilty people. Here is the audio podcast (the Cold-Case Christianity Weekly Podcast is located on iTunes or our RSS Feed):

Cold Case ChristianityFor more information about the reliability of the New Testament gospels and the case for Christianity, please read Cold-Case Christianity: A Homicide Detective Investigates the Claims of the Gospels. This book teaches readers ten principles of cold-case investigations and applies these strategies to investigate the claims of the gospel authors. The book is accompanied by an eight-session Cold-Case Christianity DVD Set (and Participant’s Guide) to help individuals or small groups examine the evidence and make the case.
