People are showing up to Walking on Water Bible Church in Westland, Michigan and texting their pastor afterward to say: "I've been in church for 10 years and no one has ever pushed me to learn the books of the Bible." Pastor Mike Holloway joins Brian From to talk about what happens when a church decides to make the Word of God — not inspiration, not entertainment — the foundation of everything it does. That means Christian education before Sunday service, 26-week certificate programs working through systematic theology and the essentials of the faith, challenges for members of every age to memorize the books of the Bible, and formal debates with atheists, Muslims, and other false teachers in the public square. Pastor Mike's simple conviction: the right information brings about the right transformation. He also speaks directly to anyone who hasn't opened their Bible in a while and doesn't know where to start — and closes with a word for anyone who feels like hope is out of reach.

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.
