Who actually decided which books belong in your Bible—and can you trust that decision? In this podcast episode, cold case detective and Christian apologist J. Warner Wallace applies investigative logic to the canon question, showing why the New Testament wasn’t invented by a church council but recognized using criteria that were already embedded in Scripture itself. https://coldcasechristianity.com/podcasts/podcasts-about-the-bible/who-decided-whats-in-your-bible-and-were-they-right-podcast/ #ChristianApologetics #ColdCaseChristianity #JWarnerWallace #ChristianWorldview

This is what leadership often looks like in the real world. It recognizes danger, directs available resources, and invites ordinary people to become part of the solution. https://www.thethinbluelife.com/articles/nature-of-law-enforcement/when-a-community-lifts-together/ #lawenforcement #police #propolice #supportthepolice #backtheblue #thinbluelife #thethinbluelife

We have all been gifted by God to do something in this life. How do we live in a way that displays the Gospel at the forefront of our lives? How do we remain persistent in prayer while waiting to hear from God? And what about when it comes to dealing with someone who's theology is flawed? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p26a50Z_2WQ

Thanks to those of you who are using our small group curriculum!!! Have you ever wondered why we need four different gospel accounts? Join us for a Bible study based on Cold-Case Christianity by J. Warner Wallace, a former homicide detective. This entry-level apologetics class will examine the New Testament through the lens of eyewitness testimony, explore evidence from archaeology and extrabiblical historians, and consider classic theological arguments. https://www.swiftcreekbaptist.org/event/cold-case-christianity/2026-09-23/

When ministry becomes tied to income, platform, or status, it becomes harder to tell whether the driving motive is worship or survival, gratitude or self-preservation. Volunteerism, in the biblical sense, pushes directly against this drift. Serving with no expectation of return trains the heart to see God as the true rewarder, protects against the subtle pull of sex, money, and power as currencies of ministry success, and keeps believers tethered to the simple joy of obedience rather than the rush of visibility. https://coldcasechristianity.com/writings/service-or-volunteerism-why-the-difference-matters-for-every-christian/ #ChristianApologetics #ColdCaseChristianity #JWarnerWallace #ChristianWorldview

Is Christianity merely “true for you,” or are its central claims true—or false—for everyone? 🤔 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=efz_rxnZcUw

J. Warner Wallace, a cold-case homicide detective and an adjunct professor of apologetics, explained how the historical and cultural impact of Jesus points to the truth of Christianity and why evidence can deepen both faith and confidence in sharing the gospel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1abae79bU4

Critics claim the Gospels — Matthew, Mark, Luke and John — were written decades or more after the events they describe, which renders them at best of questionable reliability in providing accurate accounts. Strobel and Wallace leave no doubt that, to the contrary, judged on the basis of the same standards for admission of evidence in investigative journalism and law enforcement, the Gospels are based on absolutely solid reporting and description. https://www.hillfaith.org/agnosticism/case-files-heres-gospel-dating-evidence-youve-never-seen/

What if one overlooked factor quietly shaped all of Christian history—and still shapes your faith today? In this episode of the Cold Case Christianity Podcast, J. Warner Wallace explores how timing, culture, communication, and evidence came together to make biblical Christianity possible, and what would change if Jesus arrived in our modern, digital age instead. https://coldcasechristianity.com/podcasts/podcasts-about-christianity/the-overlooked-factor-that-shaped-all-of-christianity-podcast/ #ChristianApologetics #ColdCaseChristianity #JWarnerWallace #ChristianWorldview

After a hard shift, it is tempting to retreat. It’s easy to sit silently in the garage, scroll through the phone, turn on the television, sleep excessively, or find some other way to avoid engagement. https://www.thethinbluelife.com/articles/marriage-as-a-cop/after-the-shift-the-courage-to-come-back-home/ #lawenforcement #police #propolice #supportthepolice #backtheblue #thinbluelife #thethinbluelife

Can the Bible still be trusted in a skeptical, secular age? In this powerful conversation with homicide detective and Christian apologist J. Warner Wallace, we explore the evidence for the trustworthiness of Scripture, the reliability of the Gospel eyewitness accounts, the prophetic case for Jesus as the Jewish Messiah, and the extra-biblical and archaeological support for the life of Christ. https://coldcasechristianity.com/videos/stop-saying-the-bibles-broken-the-evidence-shreds-modern-skepticism-video/ #ChristianApologetics #ColdCaseChristianity #JWarnerWallace #ChristianWorldview

Why does the Bible call Jesus “the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world” 🐑🌍 when lambs in the Old Testament were never used that way? In this video, J. Warner Wallace—a former cold-case detective turned Christian apologist—investigates the sacrificial patterns of the Old and New Testaments to show why this “Lamb” language only makes sense if Jesus is God. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2tW6jHiJV0
