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.

Brian From talks with Gospel Coalition writer Sarah Zylstra about surprising signs of spiritual engagement among Gen Z. Though statistically the most secular generation, pockets of young adults are showing deeper curiosity about Christianity, filling chapels, memorizing Scripture, and pursuing serious faith. It’s a hopeful conversation about cultural shifts, quiet revival, and what this moment could mean for the future of the church.

Brian From reflects on encouraging financial news before reminding listeners that true security isn’t found in mortgage rates or markets, but in Christ who never fluctuates. He walks through the “money-back guarantees” of the gospel from Romans 5—peace with God, access to grace, hope, assurance, and reconciliation—celebrating the unshakable blessings believers receive in Jesus. The hour also offers pastoral encouragement on prayer, integrity in leadership, and finding God’s steady presence even in seasons of anxiety.
