Global Flood or Ancient Myth? What the Evidence Really Shows

About this sermon

Did Noah’s flood really happen, or is it just another recycled ancient myth? 🌊 In this episode of Cold-Case Christianity, cold-case homicide detective and Christian apologist J. Warner Wallace investigates the Genesis flood account like a real case file. Drawing on his years of experience examining events he cannot see and witnesses he cannot interview, he compares Noah’s story to other ancient flood accounts (like Atrahasis and the Epic of Gilgamesh), looks at worldwide flood traditions, and asks whether all of these echoes point back to one real, catastrophic event. You’ll hear why the biblical account looks strikingly different from its ancient neighbors, how the character of God in Genesis contrasts with the petty, hungry, and divided gods of other cultures, and why the flood is about moral evil and judgment—not just “noisy humans.” 🌍 He also explores questions skeptics often raise about miracles, philosophical naturalism, geology, the scope of the flood (global vs. regional), and whether an ark like the one described in Genesis is actually feasible. If you’ve ever wondered whether Noah’s flood is history or just Hebrew mythology, this episode will give you a detective’s perspective on one of the most controversial stories in Scripture. 🕵️‍♂️📖 👉 Get the book that started it all: Cold-Case Christianity https://amzn.to/42XtJhu 👍 If this video challenges or encourages you, please like the video, subscribe to the channel, and share it with a friend. 📝 And don’t forget to comment and let us know what you think about the flood account and the evidence.
