Wretched Radio with Todd Friel

WHY “GOOD PEOPLE GO TO HEAVEN” IS THE MOST SPIRITUALLY DANGEROUS LIE

It’s Witness Wednesday!

On today’s episode of Wretched Radio, Todd Friel is back on campus for a special ‘Witness Wednesday.’ As Todd engages students, he highlights the importance of understanding and embracing the gospel, repentance, and the grace of God.

Segment 1:

• Ein admits to believing in God but doesn’t fully understand why Jesus died.

• Thinks he’s “a good person,” but Todd walks him through God’s standard and sin’s seriousness.

• Hears the gospel clearly: Jesus took his punishment, offering forgiveness and eternal life.

Segment 2:

• Drew dresses whimsically but reveals deep spiritual confusion, calling himself “saved” for “fire insurance.”

• Admits living for himself, distant from God, and fearing death and judgment.

• Todd explains the true gospel — salvation isn’t about effort or labels but trusting Jesus fully.

Segment 3:

• Todd’s conversation with Drew continues: Drew confesses struggles with lying, stealing, and lust but thought Christianity was about “being good.”

• Todd shares a powerful analogy about bad restaurants to explain why Jesus rescues sinners, not the “good.”

• Learns salvation is a gift of grace, not earned by works, and forgiveness is complete.

Segment 4:

• Anna wants to grow in evangelism but struggles with clearly presenting the gospel.

• Todd teaches her to focus on forgiveness of sins in Christ, using God’s law to reveal our need for a Savior.

• Anna learns the difference between guilt-driven religion and grace-fueled obedience — a life transformed by Jesus.
