GOOD PERSON? WHY THIS ROMAN CATHOLIC MISSES THE TRUTH OF THE GOSPEL

It’s Witness Wednesday!

In this episode of Wretched Radio, host Todd Friel travels to Georgia Tech. He engages with several students, challenging their views on evolution, morality, and Christianity. Through thought-provoking conversations, Todd explains the gospel, sin, and redemption, aiming to awaken these student’s consciences and encourage them to consider the God that created them.

Segment 1:

• Eduardo grew up Catholic, but unsure of afterlife: says he’s a “good person.”

• Admits to breaking God’s commandments but hopes for mercy.

• Todd explains the gospel as Jesus paying Eduardo’s moral debt — the only way to avoid hell.

Segment 2:

• Joey believes in evolution and rejects intelligent design despite his programming background.

• Confesses to lying, stealing, lusting — yet insists morality can exist without God.

• Todd appeals to Joey’s conscience and shares how Jesus satisfies both God’s justice and mercy.

Segment 3:

• Dallas, raised Catholic, is now more loosely “Christian”, and admits to sinning and doubts personal goodness.

• He learns why God gave the commandments — not to “win” but to show we’re sinners in need of a Savior.

• Todd presents Dallas with a clear, full explanation of the gospel.

Segment 4:

• Riley doesn’t consider himself religious but has “heard it all before.”

• He acknowledges sin and God’s standard — but questions grace, responsibility, and eternal consequences.

• Todd likens salvation to a costly rescue and urges Riley to respond to Jesus’ kindness, not just fear judgment.
