This video tackles a common skeptic claim head-on: that Christians “added” the virgin birth of Jesus long after the fact. In this conversation, cold-case detective and Christian apologist J. Warner Wallace takes a forensic look at the manuscript evidence, the dating of the Gospels, and the way real eyewitnesses report events, to ask whether the birth narratives in Matthew and Luke are late legends or early, integral parts of the Christian story.

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.
