Back in 2016, Lee Strobel on Twitter gave other people links to James Patrick Holding's articles.
That was one year after my original lawsuit against him.
So I recently sent Strobel the following email:
It is my understanding that you sometimes recommend James Patrick Holding's apologetics materials. For example:

Hey @NelsonKingHD -- Here's rebuttal the atheist didn't want you to know about: http://ow.ly/6kHE300HGXO
=======================================
Apostle Paul required you to disassociate yourself from so-called "brothers" who commit certain sins, one of them being "reviling". 1st Cor. 5:11-13.
Mr. Holding has "reviled" me so much, I had to sue him for libel, and the Complaint was required to be 534 pages long merely to document it all. You can download it for free here.

Since you clearly supported Holding's work in the past, and I don't know whether you've withdrawn such support since 2016, I might need to secure your under-oath testimony for purposes of trial. I rather prefer to gain that testimony by email and thus spare everybody some expense. The slanderous language of Holding which I documented in the Complaint, is sometimes sexually vulgar, so this is notice that you should make sure no kids are near the computer when you read this Complaint.
Since around 2016, Holding has been intentionally ambiguous about the exact legal basis upon which he can solicit and receive "tax-deductible" donations, and he says this is somehow allowed because of the fact that he works with other organizations that have 501(c)(3) status. But he never publicly names these other organizations, leaving the donor to guess as to how exactly the money will be used, and to guess about whether the money will go to some other ministry Holding has refused to disclose. So for all I know, he might do work for you, or you do work for him, or did in the past, etc, and perhaps Holding's tax-scheme has some relation to you or your ministry. Your supporting of his work certainly raised an eyebrow.
Because I claim actual and presumed damages in this lawsuit against Holding, this gives me the right in the discovery-phase of the litigation to find out just how extensive Holding's slanders about me were. Thus the extent to which you do or don't work with Holding, is relevant, discoverable and admissible.
This is a good faith effort to gain facts within your personal knowledge for purposes of currently pending litigation. I can subpoena you, of course, but I'd rather avoid doing that. If it be true that you have ceased recommending and/or supporting Holding, a simple comment to me by email explaining what motivated you to cease that activity will be sufficient.
It is truly mystifying how in my experience, most of the people who name the name of Christ and recommend Holding's apologetics, find his consistent 20 years of sinful libels and slanders against me and even against other Christians to be utterly unimportant....as if the bible would justify them keeping in their ministry a Christian teacher who lives in perpetual sin, because his great knowledge of apologetics somehow "outweighs" those actions in his life that biblically disqualify him from ministry (!?)
If there is anything I can do to minimize the degree to which you are involved in this lawsuit, please let me know. Your emphases on spiritual maturity cause me to presume in good faith that you do not knowingly support ministries led by people who mistake spiritually evil conduct for holy conduct.
Sincerely,
Christian Doscher
