Snow Days, Eternal Hope, and Living on Mission
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 reflects on the joy of a classic snow day, celebrates Team USA’s Winter Olympic success, and wrestles with a cultural shift toward radical self-focus and independence. He shares a moving meditation on Christian funerals after attending the service of a young mother, exploring how believers hold grief and resurrection hope in tension. Brian also challenges listeners to break out of the “Christian bubble,” embrace their God-given calling like Bezalel, and live on mission with clarity, courage, and kingdom purpose.
