Welcome to June, it's Pride Month! We encourage our listeners to RSVP to Citizen Action's Annual Meeting this Saturday, at 10am. Robert gives us the latest tick report amid national concern about tick-borne illnesses. Spurred by global warming, tick activity continues to surge in Wisconsin while the national media descends on Martha Vineyard as the island is beset by ticks, and victims are forced to avoid red meat. Trump visits Western Wisconsin, the home of Wisconsin's pivotal Congressional District 3. Is he an anchor on embattled MAGA incumbent Derrick Van Orden and other Republicans on the ballot or does Trump know how to generate a massive turnout of MAGA voters? We dive into a critically important Wisconsin Health Assessment, a periodic report mandated by the State Legislature.Rarely do such radical findings come from an official state government report. This year's report finds that a stunning 1 in 10 Wisconsinites skipped needed health care due to cost. The report also contains shocking revelations on low wages, the growing unaffordability of housing, massive under investment in public education (especially in low income BIPOC majority schools), and a chronic under investment in public health. Will the next legislature act on this searing indictment of status quo policies or kick the can down the road? MASH union president Peter Rickman joins us to discuss the state health assessment, building worker power, and to update us on newly scheduled $20 Wage Town Halls in Fond du Lac, Madison, Milwaukee, Sheboygan, and more locations. We close with news that Boss Vos vows to try again on the failed surplus budget deal. With Governor Evers continuing to complain about the failure of the first effort, will they get another kick at the cat?

Faith, Doubt, and The A Team Pastor Mark Havel Matthew 28:16-20Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. When they saw him, they worshiped him but some doubted. Jesus said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore, and baptize all nations in the name of the Father, the +Son, and the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I've commanded you. And remember, I am with you always to the end of the age.” “I love it when a plan comes together.” (Does anyone else remember the A-Team? Murdock … Hannibal … Mr. T as B.A. Baracus? It was a show from way back in the 1900's.) John Hannibal, was the leader of The A-Team who coined that phrase, or at least made it a pop-culture thing at the time – “I love it when a plan comes together.” I watched the show faithfully, but had to look it up to remember that the A-Team was a group of special forces, military guys, who had been wrongly accused and imprisoned for war-crimes they didn't commit. After breaking out of prison, these good guys were simultaneously on the run from the military police AND finding ways to help people in need, as benevolent vigilantes.Anyway, the phrase, “I love it when a plan comes together,” was funny because, The A-Team was this motley crew of mismatched misfits who joked and argued and got into all sorts of trouble and fights and shenanigans as they did their thing. They achieved their goals, rescued their people, accomplished their missions, made their escapes … barely … by the skin of their teeth … every time. And, at the end of every successful mission, their leader, John Hannibal, sucking on a log-sized cigar, would declare – as though it was his design and strategy all along – “I love it when a plan comes together.”This phrase came to mind because our plans have been all over the place the last couple of months where this building project is concerned. Securing reliable bids, getting a loan approved, scheduling congregational meetings, then re-scheduling congregational meetings, and all the rest have landed us here on May 31st – which for all sorts of practical, logistical reasons – was the last best option for all that's on our plate for today's Annual Meeting.Which led to the practical, holy need for this Unified Worship service – where we can all be together in one place at the same time – which just so happened to be Holy Trinity Sunday, which is the Church's invitation to wrestle with and wonder about and celebrate the unity of God's nature – the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; the Triune God; three persons, equal in majesty; three in one and all the rest.“I love it when a plan comes together.” (For a preaching pastor, this is kismet, serendipity, or it might just be the work of the Holy Spirit.)And there's also this Gospel reading where Jesus gives “The Great Commission” to “go and baptize and make disciples and remember.” But before all of that, what grabs my attention every time, is the notion that when the disciples showed up in Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go, “they worshiped him,” we're told, “but some doubted.” They all worshiped him, but some doubted.For my money, there's not a more accurate description of what the church is up to, generally, in the world these days, and what we're up to, very particularly as Partners in Mission at Cross of Grace, at this moment in time. They all worship, but some doubted.“I love it when a plan comes together.”I mean I'm glad we're all here today – and that we show up week after week to worship. (… and to learn and to serve, too.) And I'm grateful to be reminded that, even with Jesus standing among his disciples, having done all that he'd promised he would do – up to and including rising from the dead – some of them still doubted. Some of them still weren't sure. Some of them were still skeptical, cynical, afraid, maybe. Because that means we can be all of those things, too – and still be faithful. Because I'm right there with the doubters, more often than I'd like to admit.I worry every year that General Fund commitments – never mind actual offerings – are going to show up in a way that supports and grows this ministry. I worry every year that Time and Talent offerings may or may not meet the needs of our nursery, a mowed lawn, a cleaned building, a Grace Quest program, and all the rest. And every time we've engaged a building project over the last 25 years at Cross of Grace – and this will be our fourth – I've worried that we are building too much, too soon, of the right spaces, for the right about amount of money.And I worry most about you – and about whose doubts, discouragement, and disappointments are going to get the best of them.But in spite of my doubts and my worries and my misgivings and concerns, I just keep showing up to this mountain I feel God has called us to. Maybe it's foolish. Maybe it's faith. I don't know. But I just keep doing my best to worship and learn and serve, I mean. I doubt and I worship. I doubt and I learn. I doubt and I serve. And I do it all over and over and over again. And I'm grateful that so many of you join me for it, too.Because I love it when a plan comes together … a plan only God can design, dictate, and deliver.It's a plan that looks like a wide welcome of love and affirmation for LGBTQ+ children of God – in a world and a faith that still doesn't get it.It's plan that has helped to build over 100 houses in Fondwa, Haiti, right along with every square foot of facility we've built for ourselves around here.It's a plan that includes a voice for racial justice and equity that would otherwise be silent in a community that hasn't heard all we have to say on the matter.It's a plan that has called us – as Partners in Mission – to baptize and confirm, to marry and bury, to feed and nourish, to party, pray, and otherwise walk together – by faith – through a world that can be so lonely and lost and without meaningful connection so much of the time. It's a plan that's still in the making … a plan that's still coming together … a plan that is messy and risky and cobbled together by an A Team of mismatched misfits and sinners, but full of beautiful things I doubt would happen otherwise, if Cross of Grace weren't here continuing to grow, still building, and still sharing grace in the unique, bold, faithful ways God has called us to do.And it's a plan that will only come together if and when we seek to accomplish it BY God's grace, FOR God's glory, and GROUNDED in God's love revealed in Jesus Christ, crucified and risen for the sake of the world we're called to serve.Amen

In the second episode of this series, Dr. Tesha Monteith and Dr. Peter Goadsby discuss the prediction of treatment responses for personalized medicine. Show transcript: Dr. Tesha Monteith: Hi, this is Tesha Monteith with The Neurology Minute. Today I'm speaking with Peter Goadsby from the Division of Biomedical Sciences at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology about key trends in headache medicine and some of the most impactful research presented at the AAN annual meeting. Can you talk a little bit about prediction of treatment response for personalized medicine? Dr. Peter Goadsby I hope that AI gives us some direction. I haven't seen anything yet, but I don't think we've done enough with it to make it stunning yet. I think that the AI systems ... I'd love to know, for example ... I've been using triptans for 30 years and apart from using sumatriptan first when [inaudible 00:00:51] had a triptan simply because it's the commonest triptan, which is generally what I do, that's a pretty naff rule when you think about it. I'd like to think that AI systems could work out where we should be going in terms of acute therapy, preventive therapy, whether there are particular red flags or amber flags you might say in a person's broad history. I don't think we've got there yet, but I actually think we will get there. I think we'll be surprised and we'll learn things about the biology of the disorder and about the pharmacology of these medicines, which must have subtle differences because we all see people who respond to one and don't respond to another, and you sort of scratch your head, but you're happy that it happens. Dr. Tesha Monteith: I agree with you, and I think the future is really bright for headache medicine and the potential of AI to move the needle. Peter, thank you again for joining us and sharing your insights. I really appreciate you being on. This is Tesha Monteith. Thank you for listening to The Neurology Minute.

"We don't live in a stable world anymore. We live in a rapidly changing, turbulent world. And in a dynamic environment, intelligence is not just your ability to think and learn, it's your capacity to rethink and unlearn."Adam Grant, organizational psychologist, podcaster, and author of the bestseller "Think Again", tells us why we are wrong in many of our assumptions about today's world, and why we would all benefit from tackling our own biases - not least the "I'm-not-biased" bias.And he explains why the wrong sorts of people too often get promoted or elected to positions of power.Adam spoke to Radio Davos at the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting 2026 in Davos, Switzerland.Links:Think Again: https://adamgrant.net/book/think-again/Books Adam mentions:Factfulness: https://www.gapminder.org/factfulness-book/The Better Angels of Our Nature: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Better_Angels_of_Our_NatureNot the End of the World: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/145624737-not-the-end-of-the-worldReThinking is produced by Cosmic Standard.
