Marriage and Money: Building Unity Instead of a Tinderbox with Glenn Lutjens
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.

Brian From talks with Focus on the Family counselor Glenn Lutjens about why money can become such a flashpoint in marriage—and how couples can move from tension to teamwork. They explore practical tools like creating a “spending plan,” setting regular money conversations, teaching kids biblical financial principles, and cultivating generosity together. It’s a candid, grace-filled discussion about protecting unity, pursuing peace, and putting Christ at the center of your finances.
