THINK YOU’RE BETTER THAN MOST? HAVE YOU CONSIDERED THIS STANDARD?

It’s Witness Wednesday!

Todd Friel is back at Kennesaw State University to speak with students and emphasizes the importance of approaching evangelism with love and understanding while pointing individuals toward the hope and joy found in Jesus Christ.

Segment 1:

• Cole, an agnostic with an interest in history, approaches Todd out of curiosity about Christianity.

• The conversation shifts from historical Christianity (like the Crusades) to the core problem of humanity—our standing before a holy God.

• Todd uses the Ten Commandments as a mirror, revealing that Cole isn’t just imperfect—he’s guilty before God.

Segment 2:

• Cole admits his shortcomings, but Todd emphasizes that comparing ourselves to “worse people” doesn’t make us good before God.

• The courtroom analogy drives home the seriousness of sin—one day, Cole will stand before God and answer for his life.

• Todd lays out the gospel as the only solution: Jesus bore the punishment Cole deserves, offering him a perfect record in return.

Segment 3:

• An agnostic admits she struggles to believe in things she can’t see, but Todd challenges her with logic—design points to a Designer.

• She’s been hurt by aggressive evangelism, leading her to reject Christianity.

• Todd gently shifts the focus back to Christ, urging her to judge Christianity by Jesus, not by the failures of His followers.

Segment 4:

• The student acknowledges she’s broken God’s laws, but struggles with the idea of judgment.

• Todd explains Easter: God’s justice demands punishment for sin, but His mercy sent Jesus to take that punishment.

• The student remains skeptical but admits Todd’s reasoning makes sense—Todd leaves her with a challenge to reconsider Jesus, apart from past hurts.
