Brian From is joined by author and speaker Arlene Pellicane to talk about National Marriage Week and why intentionality matters so much in long-term relationships. Arlene shares practical, hopeful ways couples can move beyond simply coexisting and rediscover connection, purpose, and joy—especially in seasons like parenting transitions and empty nesting. The conversation encourages couples to take small, meaningful steps toward growth and reminds listeners that strong marriages don’t happen by accident, but by choice.

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.
