Is Jesus really God, or did the church just make that up later? In this episode of Cold-Case Christianity, homicide detective and Christian apologist J. Warner Wallace works through the Gospel of John like a case file, pulling one key piece of evidence from each chapter (John 2–21) to test the viral claim, "Jesus never even said He was God." You'll see how titles, reactions, and "hidden in plain sight" details in John quietly build a powerful cumulative case that Jesus is more than a great teacher—He is God in the flesh.

In this episode, J. Warner Wallace joins The Bill Arnold Show to discuss how followers of Jesus can thoughtfully respond to the recent events in Minneapolis. Drawing on his background as a cold-case detective and Christian apologist, J. Warner explores how to separate facts from headlines, think biblically about justice, authority, and race, and model truth and hope in a culturally divided moment.

Listen in as we examine how to apply a forensic faith framework to breaking news, avoid outrage-driven narratives, and live out a distinctly Christian response in times of crisis.
