Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable–if anything is excellent or praiseworthy–think about such things (Philippians 4:8)
Instead of watching the latest music videos and viral marketing broadcasts, why not check out something edifying on Youtube for a change?
Wretched Radio is a Christian video/radio series that has been running since 2005 on streaming radio and video with Todd Friel as its frontsman and spokesperson.
The program covers just about every salient topic pertinent to Christian life today, from salvation to marriage to death to thinking correctly about current events, with a focus on providing godly, Biblical bases for our beliefs while pointing out error in a loving way. Best of all, most (video) episodes are only 5-10 minutes long, perfect for a quick watch when you want to brush up on a certain topic. Todd Friel is always amusing and lovable to watch while never compromising on the truth of God’s Word.
But don’t take my word for it, try some episodes from their official Youtube channel here: Wretched Network. Browse through their uploads and you’re bound to find something that piques your interest or addresses a situation you may be dealing with. Topics like these:
- How did the early church decide which books should be in the Bible?
- Do miracles happen today? Hint: NO.
- Do Christians have to submit to a rotten government?
- Christianity does not need motivational speakers (*cough* Otabil *cough*)
- Do NOT tithe.
And all that is just from a cursory glance at their page. As you can see some of the topics are fairly controversial in Christian circles today, but what I like about Wretched is that they don’t run from even the touchiest of topics – all backed by scripture. Even if you don’t agree with everything Friel says, the Biblical basis makes Wretched videos a good place to start when gathering info on any subject. Highly recommended whenever you have the time, and at under 12 minutes for most videos, you have no excuse!
