Why aren’t you happier than you currently are? Even with freedom, friends, and future plans—something still feels off. Why?

Join Dr. Greg Gifford (counselor, professor, author) and Todd Friel (host of Wretched TV & Radio) as they reveal three surprising reasons Gen Z is struggling with happiness—and how the oldest path in the world just might be the one that leads you back to joy.

Whether you’re skeptical, spiritual, or just searching, this free event is designed to challenge your assumptions, respect your intelligence, and introduce you to a better way of living.

Ready to take your joy back?
You might be closer than you think.

Meet Todd Friel

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). 
 
Currently, Todd is the Executive Director of Fortis Institute, and hosts the nationally syndicated “Wretched” television show and radio  program/podcast. Todd has authored four books, and has written over twenty Bible studies.

Meet GREG GIFFORD

Greg Gifford served as a U.S. Army Captain before God led him into ministry. He earned degrees in Pastoral Ministry, Biblical Counseling, and a PhD from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.

Currently, Greg is Assistant Professor of Biblical Counseling at The Master’s University and a Fortis Fellow. He hosts the Transformed podcast, counsels with 180 Ministries, serves as an elder in his local church, and has authored three books: Lies My Therapist Told Me, Heart and Habits, and Helping Your Family Through PTSD.
