Todd Friel studied to be a pastor for four years but neglected to actually get saved. He abandoned church ministry plans and did secular TV, radio and stand-up comedy for 6 years. Gratefully, God saved Todd (from hell and stand-up comedy). Since then, Todd has combined his pastoral training and media skills to host a daily Christian talk show.

Currently, Todd is host of “Wretched”, a daily television show on FamilyNet and radio program on Sirius FamilyNet 161 and many stations across the country. He has written for Christian Chronicle, Christian Worldview Network, has Debated Dan Barker (Pres. Freedom from Religion Foundation), Eddie Tabash (Council for Secular Humanism) and many others . Todd's projects include: The Case for Atheism (There Isn’t One), Herman Who? (A Hermeneutics Primer), Decisions, Decisions (Knowing God’s Will), Terrified (How to Witness to Anyone), Beyond the Shadow of a doubt (You can trust the Bible). He has spoken at churches, festivals, seminars and youth groups all over America.

Todd has three children, one wife and a dog.
