In God We Still Trust

The Eternal Values Behind the American Experiment

Struck into every U.S. coin are three enduring reminders of the ideals that shaped the American experiment:
 

• In God We Trust
• Liberty
• E Pluribus Unum

These words are more than patriotic mottos. They reflect the spiritual and moral convictions that helped form the character of the nation.
 

In God We Still Trust examines the timeless values behind these inscriptions by addressing questions many Americans are wrestling with today: Is America a secular nation? Is America defined by slavery? Does our strength lie in diversity? Drawing from Scripture, the writings of the Founders, and the sweep of American history, these pages explore how faith in God, God-given liberty, and unity around shared truths shaped the exceptional freedoms we enjoy.
 

At a time when America’s past is often misunderstood and its principles questioned, this book offers a thoughtful reminder of the ideas that built the nation—and why they still matter today.
