Summary

In this episode, we welcome J. Warner Wallace back to the show. He is a cold-case homicide detective, popular national speaker, and a best-selling author. He became a Christ-follower at the age of thirty-five after investigating the claims of the New Testament gospels using his skill set as a detective. He eventually earned a Master’s Degree in Theological Studies from Gateway Seminary. You have likely caught him on television at some point as his cases have been featured on Dateline NBC more than any other detective, and he’s also appeared on Court TV and Fox News. He’s authored bestsellers like God’s Crime Scene, and Forensic Faith. We spend most of this interview discussing his newest book The Truth in True Crime. In this interview, we discuss the importance of objective morality, how often he thinks about the cold-case murders that he couldn’t solve, the problem with tethering our identity to shiftable foundations, the importance of building godly and manly community, everyone’s propensity for darkness and malevolence, the thing that every gangster has in common, and much more. Let’s get into it… Episode notes and links HERE. Donate to support our mission of equipping men to push back darkness. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
