Summary

In this episode of the Cold-Case Christianity Broadcast, J. Warner continues to discuss the practices and principles of good investigations and applies these techniques to the Christian worldview. How do assemble the evidence they collect to make a proper inference? Are there any techniques or practices we can adopt as Christians to help us defend the Christian worldview? Good investigators know how to organize their case visually. This investigative approach is described in more detail in Forensic Faith: A Homicide Detective Makes the Case for a More Reasonable, Evidential Christian Faith. Be sure to check out Forensic Faith and the accompanying curriculum.
