Episode 8– Gospel Echo USA | Featuring Bill Federer | Hosted by Mike Steiner
In this powerful and timely episode of the Gospel Echo podcast, host Mike Steiner—also known for his work on the Salt and Light Podcast—welcomes renowned author, speaker, and historian Bill Federer. With over 30 books to his name and decades of research on American and church history, Federer joins the show to discuss the deep spiritual roots of America, the miracle stories that shaped its founding, and the cultural crossroads we face today.
Bill begins by sharing his personal testimony—how a simple invitation to church from his fiancée at age 23 led him into a life-transforming relationship with Jesus. From there, he became deeply involved in ministry and dedicated himself to uncovering and teaching the Christian history of America that is so often forgotten or dismissed in modern discourse.
This episode dives deep into some of the most important themes facing our nation:
• The Christian foundation of the United States and the role different denominations played in the original colonies
• The biblical model of “covenant government,” where each citizen is seen as a co-ruler under God’s authority
• The rise of secularism in public education and the alarming ideological shifts that have infiltrated the classroom
• The strategic spread of cultural Marxism and its targeting of younger generations to undermine traditional values
• Miraculous events in American history—such as the role of Squanto—that reveal God’s providence over the nation’s formation
Through it all, Bill and Mike make the case that understanding our spiritual and historical heritage is key to restoring what has been lost. They call on believers to stay vigilant, speak truth boldly, and re-engage with both history and Scripture to defend freedom, faith, and family in today’s world.
Whether you’re passionate about American history, concerned about the state of our culture, or simply looking to deepen your faith, this episode will challenge and inspire you.
