Episode 241: The Truth in True Crime [Part 2] with J. Warner Wallace


Listen Later

This week we conclude our discussion with Christian apologist and best-selling author, J Warner Wallace, about his latest book, The Truth In True Crime. What can investigating crime, particularly murder, teach us about the true meaning of life? A cold case homicide detective, Wallace made a remarkable journey from atheism to Christianity. His decades of experience investigating the motives behind murders and chasing one lead after another has given him some unique insights into the purpose and value of life. Every murder investigation has the potential of revealing certain truths of human nature: what's important to us, what threatens our well-being, and what causes us to flourish.


J. Warner Wallace is a cold-case homicide detective, popular national speaker and best-selling author. He continues to consult on cold-case investigations while serving as a Senior Fellow at the Colson Center for Christian Worldview. He is also an adjunct professor of apologetics at Biola University and a faculty member at Summit Ministries. J. Warner was a conscientious and vocal atheist until the age of thirty-five, when he took a serious and expansive look at the evidence for the Christian Worldview and determined that Christianity was demonstrably true. After becoming a Christ follower in 1996, Jim continued to take an evidential approach to truth as he examined the Christian worldview. He eventually earned a Master’s Degree in Theological Studies from Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary.
