Publisher's summary

Read by the author.

Explore fifteen life-truths gleaned from both contemporary murder investigations and ancient biblical wisdom.

"Every murder investigation teaches two lessons: a death lesson and a life lesson."

For decades, cold-case homicide detective J. Warner Wallace investigated the causes behind deaths and murders, chasing one lead after another as he attempted to solve the case. Several of these cases remain open, unsolved mysteries. . .

But even those that haven't yet revealed the identity of the killer do expose the truths of human nature: what's important to us, what threatens our well-being, and what causes us to flourish.

Join Wallace as he investigates life lessons he learned as a detective, so that you can:

  • Better understand your own identity and the identity of your Creator.
  • Rethink the nature of death so you can live a better life.
  • Uncover life-truths gleaned from both contemporary murder investigations and ancient biblical wisdom.
  • Discover profound attributes of human beings that will guide you down the path of true self-discovery.

Each chapter introduces you to an investigation of a death as Wallace and his partner Rick chase down leads and along the way learn guiding principles to help you thrive and flourish as a human being created in the image of God.

Illustrations can be found in the audiobook companion PDF download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The Truth has Set Me Free

I saw J Warner Wallace in Moore OK, at a conference with Frank Tutek. I have listened to his great insightful take on Christian Apologitics from the viewpoint of his many years as a Homicide Detective. This is another great book. This book however is like a modern Book of Proverbs. It is full of wisdom and Truth. It shows that the Bible is the source of Truth, because it truely shows man's depravity. That's why we need Jesus.

Intriguing story-based approach to life’s biggest questions

J. Warner Wallace does an amazing job of using intriguing stories to introduce worldview lessons on things like wisdom and identity. I loved how the author makes the lessons relevant to the reader narrates his own book.

Very good!

Loved how it got me to see myself differently, my identity in Christ. I didn’t really realize how satan was using shame as a weapon against me till i read this book.
