Whitepaper: In God We Trust

“In God We Trust”: a phrase that seems to symbolize trust in the state, in our economy, in politics. In reality, however, it is rather a cry for trust. We have lost trust in democracy, in the state, and in the economy, but also in the church and in Europe. Our sense of trust in general seems to have disappeared, which is why we often speak of a crisis of trust. How can religion and theology contribute to creating new narratives?

This whitepaper is based on the outcomes of two virtual round table meetings. We discussed not only the consequences and challenges of this crisis of trust, but also how religion can play a role in regaining trust.
