Public School Can Be a Training Ground for Faith

Christianity Today on X: "With their massive campuses and thousands of congregants, megachurches are a symbol of evangelicalism in Dallas. And crises within them can impact a significant portion of the Christian community https://t.co/nw9QAleZtS"

Matt Smethurst on X: "The only perfect church is the heavenly assembly, which does not meet at 10:30 a.m. on Sundays a short drive from your house.

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.
