Brian From reflects on a whirlwind of cultural moments—from Super Bowl outrage and social media fatigue to a sobering story of a faithful pastor who died suddenly after preaching the gospel. Along the way, he wrestles with big questions about urgency, suffering, contentment in a cost-of-living crisis, and a provocative Christianity Today debate over wine versus grape juice in communion. The episode closes with a reminder that while culture, technology, and circumstances change rapidly, God is the same yesterday, today, and forever—and still invites us to listen for His voice.

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.
