Summary

It’s Mailbag Friday! You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers! Segment 1 • Is skipping Santa robbing your kids of Christmas magic—or giving them something better? • Can attending a funeral with a female pastor mean compromising your beliefs? • How do I know if I’m truly loving my wife as Christ loves the church? Segment 2 • Church discipline: Public call-outs or quiet corrections—what’s biblical? • Do dramatizations like The Chosen distort Scripture or enhance our understanding? Segment 3 • How do you trust God when He takes away everything you care about? • If Jesus is God, how did humanity survive His death? A theological mystery. Segment 4 • My teen daughter says she hates me—how do I respond as a parent and a Christian? • Is writing Christian fiction a God-honoring talent—or just escapism? ___ Thanks for listening! Wretched Radio would not be possible without the financial support of our Gospel Partners. If you would like to support Wretched Radio we would be extremely grateful.
