Segment 2: • Have churches failed to address unbiblical remarriage after divorce? • What role does confession to others play in fighting pornography? • What’s a God-honoring way to give away or dispose of unused ministry books? Segment 3: • Should we adopt a traumatized teen if it could put our younger children at risk?

  • WHAT HAPPENS WHEN ‘KIND OF ATHEIST’ IS CONFRONTED WITH THE CROSS?

    WHAT HAPPENS WHEN ‘KIND OF ATHEIST’ IS CONFRONTED WITH THE CROSS?
    Jul 30 2025
    It’s Witness Wednesday! Does being raised in a “religious” home guarantee that a child will continue in the faith once they go to college? The conversations you hear in this episode might shock you. Todd is back at Georgia Tech where he will encounter the unfortunate toll post-modernism has had on the minds of young adults. Todd also shares a strategy that proves helpful in evangelistic conversations. Segment 1: • The first student Todd talks with was raised around church but has drifted from Christianity due to friends, science, and disinterest. • He claims to be a “good person”; Todd uses the 10 Commandments to show the student’s guilt before God. • He hears the full gospel—Jesus paying his fine so he can be forgiven— and is challenged to decide if it’s true. Segment 2: • The next student Todd talks to identifies as Baptist but admits he doesn’t know if he’s going to heaven. • Todd explains that being religious isn’t the same as being born again. • The student is urged to repent, trust in Christ fully, and make his salvation certain by being pointed to Romans to see the truth. Segment 3: • Todd talks with a student that believes in a vague “parent-like” God who disciplines but doesn’t condemn. • Todd uses the 10 Commandments to show guilt before a just Judge who must punish sin. • The student hears the gospel—Jesus taking his punishment—and is challenged to determine if it’s true. Segment 4: • Kevin embraces postmodern thinking: Catholicism works for him, but “all truths” are valid. • Another student calls himself Christian but doubts Jesus is the only way; breaks all 10 Commandments. • Both students are urged to see Jesus as the only truth, repent, and trust Him alone for salvation. ___ Thanks for listening!

Wretched Radio is faithful to the commission of our Lord to make disciples of the nations.

Not only is this a Gospel-centered show, the Witness Wednesday episodes have the host of the show, Todd Friel, going to college campuses in his area and, you guessed it, sharing the Good News of Christ with them.

The ministry is involved in supporting many domestic and global missions as well. Overall, just excellent.

The show is entertaining, current with news, and even has a weekly mailbag episode.

This guy loves to address personal problems and societal issues with Biblical truth and he makes the fix sound so obvious (at least to me).

Love this guy!!!

Todd, if nothing else, is very entertaining. If you want to keep abreast of what's going on in evangelicalism, listen to this podcast.

The downside is, he's a fundamentalist Baptist and his views reflect a Baptist understanding of issues and theology. Not everything a Baptist says is incorrect (broken clocks are right 2x a day) but that is the perspective he brings.
