It's Witness Wednesday! Todd Friel takes listeners to Georgia Tech today on Wretched Radio. Todd engages in thought-provoking conversations with several students, including a young man looking to pursue a career in research and development, a Catholic student who discusses the meaning of Easter, and two friends, exploring their beliefs and understanding of Christianity. Todd challenges them with questions about morality, the 10 Commandments, and the Gospel, encouraging them to reflect on their faith and the concept of salvation through Jesus Christ. Segment 1: • Grad student admits he's broken God's laws (lying, stealing, lust, disobedience). • Hopes his good works might offset guilt, but struggles to grasp grace alone. • Realizes salvation is not “Jesus makes up the difference” but “Jesus did it all.” Segment 2: • Catholic student says everyone is forgiven if they live a “good life.” • Admits to lying, lust, stealing music, and likely headed for hell by his own words. • Catholic student is presented with the full Gospel: not good works, but repentance and faith alone in Jesus. Segment 3: • Todd meets two friends who admit to breaking multiple commandments (lying, stealing, lust, anger). • They wrestle with the concept of justice: sin against an infinite God demands infinite punishment. • Todd clearly explains the Gospel as the only solution: Christ's full payment credited by grace alone. Segment 4: • One of the friends recalls prior conversation with Todd but still hasn't pursued the Bible or Gospel seriously. • The other friend admits failing God's standard but struggles with recognizing guilt fully. • Todd once again presents the Gospel in full: God's justice satisfied through Christ's substitutionary death. ___ Thanks for listening!

In this episode of "Spiritual Leadership with Landon Schott," Landon addresses controversial topics surrounding gender, sexuality, and the stance of Christianity. He discusses the influence of societal changes on traditional Christian beliefs, emphasizes the importance of aligning theology with scripture rather than empathy, and critiques the rise of what he calls 'progressive Christianity.' Landon argues that aligning with God's word means recognizing only two genders and opposing any form of sexual sin outside biblical marriage. He identifies three critical mistakes the church makes about homosexuality: making it the greatest sin, not addressing it, and affirming it. Practical advice for spiritual growth and battling temptations is also provided, along with a call to prioritize biblical teachings over cultural influences.

In the seventh episode of "The Fundamentals of Prayer," Duane Sheriff explores the importance of praying according to God's will and understanding it through Scripture. There is a difference between praying "if it be Thy will" and knowing God's will. The story of Jesus praying three times in the garden reveals His human struggle and ultimate surrender, teaching us the importance of persistence in prayer. When God's will is unclear, seek wisdom and approach prayer with confidence, knowing that God's Word reveals His will.https://pastorduane.com/fundamentals-of-prayer/

In Episode 103 of the Eyes on Jesus Podcast, Tim and Drew have a much-needed conversation about a growing trend in modern Christianity: the temptation to be wowed by personalities rather than drawn into the presence of God. With social media feeds filled with charismatic pastors, quick soundbites, and trendy sermon titles, many believers are becoming spiritual consumers instead of Spirit-led followers of Jesus.This episode tackles the subtle shift that can happen when we start chasing inspiration over transformation, likes over intimacy, and quotes over Scripture. Tim and Drew reflect on how churches can unintentionally feed this culture—and how pastors can feel the pressure to become performers instead of shepherds.They also open up about the challenge of helping people reengage with the presence of God. Whether it's low turnout for encounter nights or the growing apathy toward spiritual disciplines, it's clear that we're in danger of trading depth for dopamine.But there's hope. This episode is a call to return to our first love—to reclaim a passionate, intimate relationship with God that doesn't depend on a platform, a personality, or a perfectly packaged message. It's about finding Jesus again in the stillness, in the Word, and in genuine community.Apply it this week:Re-center your faith – Spend 15 minutes in silence with God this week.

In this episode, we confront a growing trend in contemporary Christianity: the desire to have Christ without His Church. Many today seek a personal faith disconnected from any visible communion, doctrine, or shared life with the Body of Christ. But is such a divorce possible—or faithful? We begin by exploring modern attempts to follow Jesus while distancing from the Church, examining the roots of this spiritual individualism and the dangers it poses. Then we turn to the Lutheran Confessions, where Luther clearly affirms that the Church is not only a human community but an article of faith: “I believe that there is on earth a little holy group and congregation of pure saints...” (SA III.XII.1–2; Large Catechism, Creed, III). The Church is where Christ is present with His Word and Sacraments. Finally, we present a better way forward—a way rooted in love for both the Bridegroom and His Bride. To love Christ is to love His Church. To receive Him is to receive His gifts in the fellowship of believers. Join us as we seek a faithful and joyful reintegration of personal faith with the life of the Church, where Christ is truly known and received. ----more---- Host: Fr. Jason Braaten Special Guest: Fr.

A spiritual experience is closer to many than they might think — especially for the faithful. As the spiritual realm gains traction in both pop culture and faith circles, believers are increasingly asking: Is this stuff real, and how do I discern truth from fiction? While some dismiss demons, exorcism, deliverance, and the supernatural as outdated myths, countless Christians continue to share real stories of both oppression and miraculous freedom. In a world where Ouija boards are marketed as toys and TikTok teems with spiritual influencers, navigating truth from deception isn't just cultural—it's deeply personal, often painful, and undeniably hopeful.In this episode of Revelations Podcast, host Reagan Kramer sits down with Ryan Bethea, producer and host of The Exorcist Files, as well as co-host of the new podcast Heaven Meets Earth. Ryan's exploration into Catholic exorcisms and modern-day miracles offers an unparalleled look into how spiritual warfare manifests today. As a Protestant gaining insights from Catholic traditions, and through deeply researched narrative storytelling, Ryan brings humility, humor, and serious theological weight to one of the most misunderstood and scarcely discussed topics in Christianity.Be equipped with a fresh, Spirit-led perspective and practical tools to understand the realities of spiritual warfare, what deliverance looks like in real life, and how God still works through miracles today. This episode is for curious skeptics, discerning believers, and anyone hungering for more of God's power and presence.Here are three reasons why you should listen to this episode:Explore real-life encounters with demonic forces and the process of exorcism in both Catholic and Protestant contexts through the lens of spiritual warfare.Gain insight into how miraculous healing and supernatural intervention point to God's faithfulness through a spiritual experience in the modern day.Reflect on how to discern spiritual attack from psychological or circumstantial hardship—and find wisdom for your own spiritual battles.Become Part of Our Mission!

A spiritual experience can happen to anyone who believes.[05:50] Reagan's Personal Story and Connection to "The Exorcist"Reagan shares her personal story, revealing that her name is from the movie "The Exorcist."Reagan was scared when she watched the movie, but eventually became an evangelist.God uses various means to bring people to Him. The spiritual experience leading you to God may be through a movie or a personal experience.Ryan mentions the book "The Exorcist Files," which captures the gaslighting experienced by exorcists, and how it mirrors the themes in their podcast.[08:52] Exorcisms and Spiritual WarfareRyan shares his witness to a colleague's overt manifestation in a ministry setting, describing it as a strange and rare experience.There is, however, plausible deniability in miracles. God leaves room for faith.Recognizing the attacks of the Enemy can be challenging, which amplifies the importance of discernment in spiritual warfare.[15:25] Ryan: “Paul's constantly reminding us, Hey, you have an Adversary. Don't be scared, but be alert.”[19:10] The Role of Prayer and Spiritual DiscernmentRyan's co-host Abby takes a spirit-led approach to life and decision-making, including praying about everyday choices.Abby's posture of prayer and discernment inspired him to submit more of his decisions to God."Lead with Prayer" by Ryan Skoog highlights the importance of prayer in making decisions.As Christians, we must trust God's timing and be open to His guidance in all aspects of life.[21:1] Ryan: “You hear all these stories; miracles happen. They're rare by definition. They're miracles. These are not common experiences, and they take all shapes and sizes.”[24:37] Heaven Meets Earth: A Spiritual Experience“Heaven Meets Earth” had diverse guests from different faiths, which gave them a broad perspective. However, the focus was on miracles and spiritual experiences."Heaven Meets Earth" podcast had a powerful and positive impact, and even helped heal or encourage its listeners through difficult times.It would help people to normalize spiritual experiences and provide a platform for people to share their stories.Miracles happen all the time — even today in our lives. We just have to be open to God's work.[31:08] Mary and Spiritual ApparitionsGod is not the sole source of spiritual encounters. Mary also comes to people with spiritual experiences and apparitions.Ryan shares a story about a friend who received a message from Mary during a difficult time, which brought her comfort and healing.Marian apparitions have great historical significance, such as Lady of Guadalupe and Fatima. Their impact on the faith of people worldwide is undeniable.It's critical that we remain open to spiritual experiences and the role of the saints in interceding for us.[37:12] Spiritual Experience in the Modern EraTrust God's timing and be open to His guidance in all aspects of life.Spiritual experiences can come from anywhere — even a podcast.[44:54] Ryan: “Keep your eyes open, see what God's up to. He's always sneakily doing something.”We must continue to share our faith and experiences to those open to hearing.About Ryan BetheaRyan Bethea is a dynamic storyteller, media producer, and spiritual investigator whose work bridges the worlds of faith, mystery, and modern-day miracles. As the creator and host of The Exorcist Files and co-host of Heaven Meets Earth with Abigail Robertson, Ryan brings biblical insight and narrative excellence to the frontlines of spiritual warfare and deliverance.

In this powerful conversation, Janell welcomes classics scholar Nadya Williams, author of "Mothers, Children, and the Body Politic: Ancient Christianity and the Recovery of Human Dignity" (IVP), to explore how our modern devaluation of motherhood parallels pre-Christian attitudes toward women and children. Prepare to have your perspective challenged.Nadia's book "Mothers, Children and the Body Politic: Ancient Christianity and the Recovery of Human Dignity" examines the striking similarities between ancient Greco-Roman views of women as "intellectually lightweight" and "vessels" for children, and today's cultural messages suggesting women without children are happier and wealthier. When presidential candidates on both sides agree that stay-at-home mothers are "bad for the GDP," we must ask: Have we lost sight of human dignity?Order Nadya's new book: Mothers, Children, and the Body PoliticLearn more from Nadya: Nadya WilliamsRead The Bloomberg Report: Women Who Stay Single and Don't Have Kids Are Getting Richer.Read "Does Having Children Make You Happier?"Support the showBegin Your Heartlifter's Journey: Visit and subscribe to Heartlift Central on Substack.

Send us a textBe it resolved: America's founders established a secular government with provision for a religious people. When the delegates met in Philadelphia in the summer of 1787, they deliberately prevented the government from favoring any religion. Then when the Bill of Rights were added, freedom of religious expression was guaranteed. Those who wanted a Christian government at the time were upset at what they called the religious defect in the Constitution. They were honest enough to admit what today's Christian nationalists often cover up: The Constitution is not a Christian document and the nation was not founded on the basis of Christianity. The Christian myths surrounding the Constitutional Convention and Constitution came out later. At the time, most people recognized that the founding was secular. This is a bonus episode with regular segments to return in July. Music provided by Earl's Taco Shack. Segment written by Warren Throckmorton

Episode Title: "Was the Church Hijacked After Constantine?"Series: Not Against Flesh and Blood – Ep. 1 Episode Description: Was the Church of Christ hijacked by Rome after Constantine? Or is that just a popular myth used to prop up modern interpretations? In this premiere episode of Not Against Flesh and Blood, we tackle one of the most common (and misleading) narratives in anti-Catholic circles—the claim that true Christianity disappeared after the 4th century. We explore the Council of Nicaea, the role of Constantine, the Arian controversy, and what the early Church actually believed. We also ask:Can we trust the Church that gave us the Bible?Was the Nicene Creed a corruption or a clarification?What do modern Evangelicals assume about history that might not hold up?This episode isn't about attacking people—it's about exposing flawed teaching with love, history, and Scripture. We challenge our listeners to dig deeper, ask harder questions, and examine whether the faith handed down for 2,000 years is really the "corrupt version"… or if maybe it just wasn't Protestant to begin with. If you've ever been told the Church was lost, hijacked, or replaced—this one's for you.
Fr. Mike emphasizes the importance of knowing God and knowing his love for us as we read about the devastation of war and the lack of faith displayed by Israel. Without a deeper knowledge of God, not only can we struggle for hope in God's plan, but we can also fall into the temptation of losing faith in him altogether. Today's readings are 2 Kings 6-7, Hosea 4-7, and Psalm 103. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

Resurrection expert Dr. Gary Habermas returns to discuss Volume 3 of his magnum opus, 'On the Resurrection: Scholarly Perspectives', which includes 500+ scholarly treatments related to the resurrection. From far-left critics to conservative theologians, this collective volume provides a strong overview of everything that has ever been written about the resurrection and includes over 8,000 footnotes!During their conversation, Frank and Gary answer questions like:Why do critical scholars deny miracles but still affirm that Jesus was a miracle worker?Why does Gary think many atheists don't want to say "I do" to Jesus?Is biblical inerrancy a requirement for the Gospel and what about apparent Bible contradictions?What are the 3 things you need in order for Christianity to be true?How do you respond to those who say the deity of God evolved over time?What do creeds teach us about high Christology and how did it get started?What's the best explanation for the rapid growth of early Christianity?If you're looking for the most comprehensive survey of scholarship for and against the resurrection, this is it! Whether you're a skeptic, seeker, or committed believer, this discussion offers rich insight and a reason to take the resurrection seriously. As Gary would say, "It's a bold argument to say that Jesus rose from the dead, but try to get out of it!"Resources mentioned during the episode:PODCAST: Did Jesus REALLY Rise From the Dead? - https://bit.ly/3VnrtiDOn the Resurrection: Evidences (Vol.1) - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1087778603On the Resurrection: Refutations (Vol.2) - https://a.co/d/48jozEvOn the Resurrection: Scholarly Perspectives (Vol.3) - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1087778646Gary's website - https://www.garyhabermas.com/

One of the main tenets of Christianity is Jesus' divinity - most denominations hold him to be fully divine (and also fully mortal, but what's a whole other conversation). History is littered with humans who claimed to be gods - think Egyptian kings, for example. Is this something that applies also to Jesus? Was he walking around, telling people that he was, in fact, god? Today, Dr. Bart Ehrman joins me to talk about the line between divine and mortal in the ancient world, and to examine Jesus' self-presentation within the gospels.
This week on the pod, we're talking about the militarization of society, speed, politics, and death. In case you couldn't guess based on that constellation of topics, this episode features one of our favs, Paul Virilio. Throughout the episode, we're primarily referencing Paul Virilio's book Pure War. But we also reference Virilio's The Administration of Death.

Fr. Mike takes a break from 2 Chronicles to enter into the book of Hosea. We learn that Hosea was a prophet called to not only witness to God's words, but to his actions as well. Fr. Mike also touches on hope in times of intense healing, and how essential this virtue is when striving to live a life for Christ. Today's readings are 2 Kings 5, Hosea 1-3, and Psalm 101.
