The idea of “the common good” has a rich history within the Christian church. It’s the notion that, as we pursue Jesus in our lives and in the lives of others, we are fulfilling God’s purposes for His creation. This pursuit can be messy. It means rolling up our sleeves and creating space for hard conversations about real issues that impact our lives. Things like parenting, marriage, finances, politics, art, and culture. On The Common Good, Brian From creates space to have these conversations, to sit with the big questions that we all have, to sometimes disagree, but to always look for the chance to create common good, by following after Jesus. Brian welcome listeners to join them in these conversations, to bring their own questions, hopes, and struggles, and to ultimately share in a journey to see God’s design for all of us fulfilled.

Becky Harling talks about her book "Cultivating Deeper Connections in a Lonely World"

Bob Smietana on X: "Thanks to the sources who talked to me on the Friday before a holiday for this story https://t.co/DUtcYU8coz"

Wall Street Apes on X: "I can’t even describe how insane this is, you just have to watch it Going through the ingredients of the New Pumpkin Swirl Frozen Coffee at Dunkin Donuts Someone needs to explain how this is actually legal to serve to people https://t.co/OI0Gx20Rd5"

Timothy Keller (1950-2023) on X: "When Jesus Christ was in the garden of Gethsemane and the ultimate darkness was coming down on him and he knew it was coming, he didn’t abandon you-he died for you. If Jesus Christ didn’t abandon you in his darkness, the ultimate darkness, why would he abandon you now, in yours?"

Drew on X: "I wish just one presidential candidate would say, "Here's why my positions changed. I said one thing in the primaries to appeal to my radical base. But it's a general election and now I have to swing to the middle to pick up moderates. I have no values but I am super duper"

Dr. Derwin L. Gray on X: "Pastors, we are in stormy seas of political idolatry, malicious progressivism, destructive populism, and anemic discipleship; our rootedness in King Jesus, His Gospel, His kingdom, and His mission is essential. Get back in Him."

challies on X: "Flashback: When we hear a sermon that stimulates our minds, we owe praise to God, not the preacher. When we hear a new song that provokes our hearts to worship, we ought to praise God long before the songwriter. https://t.co/M4y5cY7pH4"
