Summary

It’s Mailbag Friday! You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers! Segment 1 • When is it time to stop spanking your children—and what works after that? • If I avoid someone who’s hurt me, does that mean I haven’t truly forgiven them? • How should a minister handle being disowned by their child for refusing to perform a same-sex wedding? Segment 2 • Is birth control okay for Christians—and what about permanent options? • Does the pastor’s wife deserve the title “First Lady” of the church? • How can I overcome fear and laziness to share the gospel boldly? Segment 3 • Is it biblical for a man to attend a Bible study led by a woman? • If apostles must see the resurrected Christ, why is Paul considered an apostle? • How can I lovingly guide family away from a church with false teaching? • Should Christians use the word "toxic," or is it too worldly? • What’s the best way to share the gospel at work when your boss forbids it? Segment 4 • Are church signs like “Life without Jesus is cray cray” effective—or cringy? • Can clever signs like “God is our wireless provider” spark real conversations? • What’s the balance between humor and reverence in church messaging? ___ 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.
