Jesus on Trial: Investigating 5 Difficult Verses in the Gospels
-
Narrated by:

In this episode, I put five of Jesus' hardest sayings under the investigative spotlight. As a cold-case homicide detective, I've spent my career testing witness statements, examining context, and following the evidence wherever it leads. In this "case file," I apply that same approach to some of the most troubling verses in the Gospels.
Along the way, I'll walk through investigative tools you can use on any tough passage:
- Examining the historical and literary context
- Comparing parallel gospel accounts
- Understanding ancient language and idiom
- Testing skeptical vs. Christian explanations to see which best fits the facts
If you've ever wondered whether these verses disqualify Jesus as a trustworthy source of truth, this episode is for you.
Want to go deeper and learn how to think like a detective about your faith? Check out my book Forensic Faith for an in‑depth look at building a case for Christianity and living it out with confidence.
