Set some intentions now for how to lead your family this holiday season
Podcasts > The Common Good
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.

Holidays get busy. Before they start, take a moment to carve out some priorities for discipling your kids this year, as Melissa Swain writes about in her book. Or choose a charity to support as a family: locally, there’s the Thanksgiving campaign at Living Grace Church to provide Thanksgiving baskets to nearly 2,000 people. And if you’ve ever put together shoebox for Operation Christmas Child, don’t miss Brian and Aubrey’s interview with a shoebox recipient from Rwanda.
