The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) is actively rebranding, moving away from the term “Mormon” Wretched Radio | Air Date: September 12, 2024 https://media-wretched.org/Radio/Podcast/WR2024-0912.mp3 The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS) is actively rebranding, moving away from the term “Mormon” and seeking to align more closely with mainstream Christianity. Todd Friel highlights the strategic efforts by the LDS to reshape their image, using SEO tactics and prominent figures like Glenn Beck to gain acceptance. However, despite these efforts, significant theological distinctions remain, especially concerning salvation and the nature of God. Todd also touches on the troubling rise of polyamory in some church circles and the shift in modern worship music, which often centers on personal emotions rather than praising God. ___ Download Now (right click and save) Subscribe to Wretched Radio to receive every new episode directly to your device by selecting your device type or by copying the RSS feed link and pasting it into your podcast application.

Todd recounts the gripping story of how the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod stood firm against a liberal takeover in the 1970s. Wretched Radio | Air Date: September 10, 2024 https://media-wretched.org/Radio/Podcast/WR2024-0910.mp3 Todd recounts the gripping story of how the Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod stood firm against a liberal takeover in the 1970s.

With the historical-critical method threatening the inerrancy of the Bible, a clash ensued, leading to a theological split. Todd emphasizes the importance of upholding the authority of Scripture in today’s church and how this historical fight continues to hold vital lessons for believers today. ___ Download Now (right click and save) Subscribe to Wretched Radio to receive every new episode directly to your device by selecting your device type or by copying the RSS feed link and pasting it into your podcast application.

It’s Mailbag Friday! Should pastors address this issue every Sunday? Wretched Radio | Air Date: September 06, 2024 https://media-wretched.org/Radio/Podcast/WR2024-0906.mp3 It’s Mailbag Friday! • I try to talk to my parents, but they insist on treating me like a small child and micromanage my life. I try to communicate, but my mom often yells about everything, which makes me angry and yell back. I work hard to get along with them and honor them, but I always end up losing my temper. What should I do? • I heard a short clip where you warned against pastors using AI to write sermons, which I agree with. However, I’d like to hear your thoughts on using AI as a glorified thesaurus or wordsmith. For instance, different Bible translations use varying terms for ‘propitiation,’ like ‘atoning sacrifice.’ Do you see any issues with asking AI to provide alternative phrases to articulate these concepts? • I was wondering if not including the gospel in every sermon would mean a preacher is not being orthodox. Is it necessary to share the gospel in every sermon to adhere to orthodox teaching? • When churchgoers are chronically late, should pastors address this issue, even if it might offend some members and risk them not returning to church? What’s your take on addressing punctuality in church settings? ___ Download Now (right click and save) Subscribe to Wretched Radio to receive every new episode directly to your device by selecting your device type or by copying the RSS feed link and pasting it into your podcast application.

Have you ever wondered how to start evangelizing? Wretched Radio | Air Date: September 05, 2024 https://media-wretched.org/Radio/Podcast/WR2024-0905.mp3 There is a growing issue of loneliness and stress among Americans, and the Church is positioned to offer community and support as family norms continue to break down. The World Happiness Report reveals that 61% of Americans fear retirement more than death, and Gen Z feels unsupported by family, reflecting the breakdown of societal and family norms. Atheist churches are emerging, but they fail to provide the real answers and purpose that people are searching for—only the Church can offer lasting hope. Many people seek fulfillment in distractions like Halloween and sports but find no lasting peace, with true purpose and peace only found in God. With 57% of Americans wondering how to find more meaning in life, the Church has an urgent opportunity to evangelize and provide the answers they need. ___ Download Now (right click and save) Subscribe to Wretched Radio to receive every new episode directly to your device by selecting your device type or by copying the RSS feed link and pasting it into your podcast application.
