Can you actually change someone's mind about abortion? In a culture where conversations about abortion often become heated and divisive, how can Christians engage people who disagree with them? And what does Gen Z really believe about the value of human life?

In this episode of Truth Changes Everything, Dr. Jeff Myers sits down with Ava Calhoun, an 18-year-old graduate of Summit Ministries' Student Conference and Gap Year program, now working with Justice for All, a pro-life organization dedicated to helping people have thoughtful conversations about abortion.

Ava shares what she's learned from approaching strangers with a simple question: "When do you think life begins?" From discovering surprising attitudes among Gen Z to witnessing people change their minds about abortion, Ava explains why asking good questions, listening carefully, and treating others with genuine compassion can be more effective than winning arguments.

Together, they explore how Christians can confidently engage difficult cultural issues, why meaningful conversations require both conviction and kindness, and how following Jesus should shape the way we speak with people who hold different beliefs.

Did the Bible shape America's founding? As the United States celebrates its 250th anniversary, questions about the Bible's influence on American history are more relevant than ever. While some argue that America was founded on biblical principles, others minimize Scripture's influence altogether. But what do the historical documents and artifacts actually reveal?

In this episode of Truth Changes Everything, Dr. Jeff Myers sits down with Dr. Anthony Schmidt, Director of Collections and Curatorial at Museum of the Bible, to explore the Bible's role in America's founding and development. Drawing from the museum's Sacred Liberty exhibit, Dr. Schmidt shares fascinating stories from the American Revolution, including a firsthand account of the battles of Lexington and Concord, the surprising history of America's first English-language Bible, and Benjamin Franklin's proposal to incorporate biblical imagery into the Great Seal of the United States.

Together, they examine how Scripture shaped the thinking of America's founders and everyday citizens, why religious liberty became central to the American experiment, and what we can learn from the successes and struggles of previous generations.

As America reflects on 250 years of history, how can a better understanding of the Bible's influence on our past help Christians live faithfully today?
