About this sermon

For more information, read Cold-Case Christianity: A Homicide Detective Investigates the Claims of the Gospels (http://amzn.to/2AW8bc5) Read: Am I A Christian Simply Because I Was Raised In A Christian Culture? https://coldcasechristianity.com/writings/am-i-a-christian-simply-because-i-was-raised-in-a-christian-culture/ Most people say they are Christians because they were born to Christian parents and were raised in the church. Does one’s geographic location determine what they will believe about God? Would Christians, for example, be Buddhists if they were raised in a Buddhist culture? J. Warner and Jimmy Wallace discuss recent news articles in this episode of the NRBtv Cold-Case Christianity Broadcast.
