What we believe didn’t appear overnight—it was inherited.
Inherited Ideas explores how ideas from the past continue to shape faith and culture today. Through solo deep dives and thoughtful comparisons between then and now, host Todd Hixenbaugh traces modern assumptions back to their historical, biblical, and philosophical roots—whether in the early church, the languages of Scripture, ancient Greece and Rome, or key moments in American history.
Along the way, Todd is joined by authors and subject-matter experts for conversations that deepen and challenge the discussion. These episodes aren’t academic lectures or nostalgia tours—they’re careful, accessible explorations designed to bring clarity to today’s debates by learning from the past.
If you’re curious, historically minded, and convinced that modern conversations make more sense when we understand where they came from, Inherited Ideas invites you to slow down, think more carefully, and see the present in light of the past.
