Summary

It’s Witness Wednesday!

What happens when brilliant students cling to broken views of truth, religion, and identity? Todd heads to Georgia Tech to ask hard questions—and expose just how far people will go to avoid the real Jesus.

Segment 1: The physics student who says truth is whatever you believe

• Can logic shake his postmodern foundation?

• What does he say when confronted with objective reality?

Segment 2: The aerospace major who claims to be a Christian

• His faith feels “right,” but is it real?

• Can science and Scripture both be trusted?

Segment 3: The agnostic who grew up in church

• Admits he’s broken God’s law—but does he care?

• Faces the uncomfortable truth about sin and judgment

Segment 4: A final challenge to every false religion

• Why Christianity can’t be just “one of many”

• The one thing no other religion offers

0:00.0	Richard Radio begins in three, two, one.
0:09.3	Religion would not even be an issue except for the Bible.
0:13.3	Before we get carried away, let's read our Bibles now.
0:15.7	I can assure you there are millions of Christians who did not take parts of the Bible literally.
0:20.4	Forfeit all claims to your own authority.
0:22.8	Stand without apology on the only authority that matters, which is the authority of God himself, entrusted to us in his word.
0:30.6	It's time for Wretched Radio with Todd Freel.
0:34.4	This is Wretched Radio.
0:36.1	It is Witness Wednesday here at Georgia Tech. Sitting in my car.
0:41.5	I'm a Georgia Tech. And I'm getting ready to walk out into the campus. And I've got that feeling again.
0:50.9	What is that feeling? It seems to be that feeling that this is a difficult thing to do,
1:00.9	an unpleasant thing to do even, dare I say, because witnessing to people can be hard.
1:10.2	Now, here's the interesting thing about the way I'm feeling.
1:13.6	Thanks for asking. I have done this. I don't know how many times. And over the years where I've been doing this,
1:20.6	I can't think of one time. Do you mind if I get out of my car, it's starting to get hot?
1:24.6	The worst thing that could happen today, which is about the
1:27.6	worst thing that has ever happened to me, is that I'll ask somebody, hey, will you talk to me?
1:32.3	And they're going to say, no, I don't have time. I got to go take a test. You know, that excuse.
1:38.2	Really? That's the worst. And yet, for some reason, the feeling of going and doing this again is really the same feeling
1:47.3	that I've probably had every single time that I have done this. You kind of get a little bit.
1:57.1	And so it is, as we go out to witness, or you are even at the grocery store and you have the opportunity to witness,
