Point Loma Community Presbyterian Church holds a three-week class based on the book written by J. Warner Wallace and led by Evan Gratzon on May 11, 18, and 25 at 6:30 p.m.
The church's website noted that Wallace is a former LAPD cold-case detective and an atheist who came to Christ after utilizing the same methods he used to solve crime cases. They also added that all members are invited to join them in the chapel or through Zoom.
They mentioned that the class is not a technical book study, so buying the book to participate is not required.
Point of Interest
The Book Point of Interest is like investigating a murder without any physical evidence, a crime scene, or body, as noted on the Christian book’s website.
They added that the author's experience as a homicide detective helped him apply advanced techniques to study historical claims about Jesus that confirm his genuineness.
They mentioned that Wallace did not use the New Testament scriptures.
The publisher’s description on the same website asked if the investigation could reveal the truth about Jesus even without a body or a crime scene.
The said book features a cold case in which a detective uncovers the authenticity of Jesus using the same approach to solve a murder case.
It also entices readers to be amazed at how Jesus transformed the world as they discover why Jesus still matters today.
Through this book, they would also learn modern and unique “fuse and fallout” research strategies that can be useful in finding other claims.
They also stated that the book highlights explorations and learning how to react to common objections to Christianity.
From Atheists to Christians
Moreover, Wallace listened to a pastor’s message about Jesus. He was curious why anyone would think that Jesus was the point of interest. The author was skeptical of the Bible, but he would research several no-body homicide cases in which there was no crime scene and no tangible proof.
Besides, in Person of Interest, Wallace defined his own investigative journey from atheism to Christianity. He carefully considers the evidence. The website noted that the book is creative, compelling, and fully illustrated, which could empower the faith of believers.
Another important point they mentioned is that the author has an unnatural ability to reveal clues where no one else sees them. They emphasized that the said case was perhaps the most challenging he ever handled.
