      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.

      Episode 24 :: Jubilee Economics for the Uninitiated

      Okay, we have to admit it. Jubilee Economics Ministries has a big idea that not everyone gets. When you’re trying (like we are) to take on a world class issue that encompasses a vast swath of history and attempts to deal with the microcosmic and macrocosmic concepts of economics, it gets a little hard to follow. It’s a big job trying to get the world to think another way, and while we’ve done a range of things and employed various media, sometimes we miss the forest for the trees, and things take a bit more explanation why things are how they are with JEM.

      Episode 21 :: JEM, The Common Good, and Reciprocity

      Now that The Common Good Podcast has been going on for about a year and a half now, and now that a new year is starting, Lee and Ed reflect on how JEM has worked reciprocally to serve content and to be shaped by our guests and friends who have left their feedback for either the podcast or the blog. We’d like to see more of that happening and we encourage listeners and readers to comment and add input that we can use within our blog and podcast.

      Episode 19 :: When a House is More Than a House

      Eventually the American Dream proves itself to be otherwise. For Sung and Myra Sohn, arriving in the States from their native Korea, what awaited them was getting established in architectural studies (Sung—quite a renaissance man) and starting a career in pharmacology (Myra) and then joining with the usual frantic and disjointed rhythms of American life. Eventually they found that life not to their liking as its demands took a toll on family identity and cohesion. Sung envisioned an alternative housing arrangement based on shared life and spiritual practice, not just for his own family but for other residents and guests.
