Evidence That Demands a Verdict is a compiled set of lecture notes by Josh McDowell examining historical and textual evidence for Christian faith, particularly focused on Jesus Christ and biblical reliability. Presented as a reference tool rather than a traditionally structured book, it's designed to help readers engage with questions about Christianity's credibility in academic and conversational contexts.

Evidence That Demands a Verdict originated as a set of lecture notes compiled by Josh McDowell for his speaking series titled "Christianity: Hoax or History?" Rather than a conventionally authored book, the work is presented as a documentation of research and notes intended to address what McDowell describes as a gap in the available historical evidence for Christian faith. The preface frames the material as a resource for students, professors, and laypeople seeking to engage with questions about Christianity's credibility.
