      Begun in 2010, The Common Good Podcast is hosted by Lee Van Ham and Ed Lucas and features conversations with people who are living what we call jubilee values in their own way, either in their workplace, congregation, organization, or personal lives.

      We’re interested in talking to people who live and act according to such values. Our conversations encompass how the spiritual/transcendent is seen in the daily transactions of life.
