Why Did So Many Civilizations Sacrifice Their Children?
In this episode of In God We Trusted, Will and Sam explore the disturbing history of child sacrifice across every continent and century, from the Canaanites and Romans to the Aztecs and beyond. They examine what Genesis 22 teaches about how the God of the Bible is fundamentally different from the false gods that demanded child sacrifice. The Bible repeatedly calls God's people to choose life over death, and wherever Christianity has spread throughout history, these horrific practices have been abolished. The episode also addresses abortion as a modern form of child sacrifice and why the gospel remains the only proven solution to ending it. Whether you are new to the Bible or exploring the Christian faith, this episode will challenge you to understand why God values every human life and what that means for us today.

What Happened When a Bishop Confronted the Roman Emperor?
In this episode of God We Trusted, hosts Will and Sam explore the incredible true story of St. Ambrose, the Bishop of Milan who boldly confronted Emperor Theodosius of the Roman Empire. You'll learn how Christianity transformed Western civilization through human dignity, literacy, universities, and civil rights. Discover how Ambrose went from provincial governor to one of the most influential church leaders in history, and how his teaching even led Augustine to faith. The episode covers two dramatic confrontations between Ambrose and the emperor, including the aftermath of the Massacre of Thessalonica, where 7,000 people were killed. This story shows why the church needs leaders who combine pastoral compassion with prophetic boldness to speak truth to power. If you want to understand how one courageous bishop changed the course of history and what that means for faith today, this episode is for you.

Why Are So Many Churches Abandoning the Bible?
In this episode of In God We Trust, Sam and Will trace the history of progressive Christianity and how major denominations drifted away from the Bible. From the Christian founding of America's top universities to the rise of liberal theology in Germany, they explore how figures like Friedrich Schleiermacher redefined faith as feeling rather than truth. We cover key turning points like the Andover Seminary controversy, the Social Gospel movement, the Five Fundamentals of 1910, and the Scopes Monkey Trial. You'll learn what the six mainline denominations believe today and why churches that abandoned biblical authority have lost more than half their membership. Whether you're new to faith or wondering why some churches look nothing like historic Christianity, this episode gives you the history you need. If this blessed you, share it with a friend who needs to hear it.
