Dafür macht sich Matthias auf die Suche nach dem Mann, der damals die Ermittler auf das rote Sofa brachte. Tatsächlich findet Matthias den Zeugen. Und der Zeuge erzählt ihm die kuriose Geschichte hinter dieser Spur.HINWEIS: „Luchterhandt“ erscheint ab dem 23. Mai überall, wo es Podcasts gibt. Jede Woche erscheint eine neue Folge.

In Folge 5 von "Luchterhandt" geht es um den Mann, den der stern-Informant für den Mörder von Alexander Luchterhandt hält. Der Mann heißt Bernd S. Er ist vor einigen Jahren gestorben.Dieser Bernd S. stand tatsächlich schon damals im Fokus der Mordermittler. Er galt als Freund von Luchterhandt, hatte sich aber nach dessen Verschwinden verdächtig verhalten. stern-Reporter Matthias Bolsinger begibt sich auf die Spuren von Bernd S. Er erfährt, dass der eine richtige Unterweltgröße war. Er galt als gefährlich. Nicht weil er besonders gewalttätig war, sondern vor allem, weil er schlau gewesen sein muss.Matthias zeichnet nach, wie Bernd S. damals vom Zeugen zum Hauptverdächtigen im Fall Luchterhandt wurde. Und wie der Mord an Alexander Luchterhandt abgelaufen sein könnte. Eines wird dabei klar: Allein kann Bernd S. es nicht gewesen sein, das zeigen die Spuren, die die Ermittler sichern konnten. Es geht um Telefonate und um Funksignale – und plötzlich taucht ein kurioses Beweismittel auf.HINWEIS: „Luchterhandt“ erscheint ab dem 23. Mai überall, wo es Podcasts gibt.

stern-Reporter Matthias Bolsinger rekonstruiert das Verschwinden von Alexander Luchterhandt: Er findet einen Mann, der mit Luchterhandt noch an dem Abend verabredet war, an dem er getötet worden sein soll.Anfangs glauben Freunde und Bekannte noch, dass Luchterhandt nur deswegen nicht mehr auftaucht, weil er sich ein paar Tage Auszeit genommen hat. Aber dann mehren sich die Hinweise darauf, dass etwas passiert sein könnte. Luchterhandts Freunde sind alarmiert, trauen sich aber nicht, die Polizei zu informieren, weil sie fürchten, dass dann Luchterhandts geheimes Geschäft, das Funkabhören, auffliegen könnte. Sie suchen ihn auf eigene Faust, steigen sogar in seine Wohnung ein – und finden Spuren, die ihnen noch mehr Sorgen machen.Matthias gelingt es schließlich, Einsicht in die wichtigsten Teile der Ermittlungsakten zu nehmen. Darin macht er eine verblüffende Entdeckung.HINWEIS: „Luchterhandt“ erscheint ab dem 23. Mai überall, wo es Podcasts gibt. Jede Woche erscheint eine neue Folge.

Ein Mann meldet sich bei stern-Reporter Matthias Bolsinger. Er sagt ihm, er könne helfen, einen ungeklärten Mordfall aufzuklären. Und zwar nicht irgendeinen, sondern einen der rätselhaftesten Cold Cases Berlins – den Mord an Alexander Luchterhandt. Der Informant sagt, er kenne nicht nur den Mörder, den die Kripo bis heute sucht – sondern auch den Ort, an dem die Leiche liege. Der Informant heißt Klaus Witt und saß selbst 30 Jahre lang im Gefängnis. Er führt den stern-Reporter zu einem Grundstück in Berlin. Er behauptet, dass hier, unter einem Schuppen, Alexander Luchterhandt begraben sei. Luchterhandt war eine schillernde Figur in der Berliner Medienwelt. Er lebte in einem der höchsten Häuser der Hauptstadt und hatte auf seinem Dach eine Antennenanlage installiert, mit der er illegal den Polizei- und Feuerwehrfunk abhörte. Die Informationen verkaufte er an zahlreiche Redaktionen, so wurde er zur wichtigsten Quelle für viele Berliner Polizeireporter. Bis er im Mai 2005 plötzlich verschwunden ist.Und nun, 20 Jahre später, behauptet der Informant, er kenne die Hintergründe. Kann das sein? Kann dieser neue Zeuge dem Fall wirklich eine Wendung geben?HINWEIS: „Luchterhandt“ erscheint ab dem 23. Mai überall, wo es Podcasts gibt. Jede Woche erscheint eine neue Folge.

Können wir unserem Informanten Klaus Witt trauen? Sagt er wirklich die Wahrheit, wenn er behauptet, dass er den Mörder von Alexander Luchterhandt kenne? Es gibt da ein paar Dinge, die uns an ihm zweifeln lassen. Klaus war kriminell. Er scheint nicht alles zu sagen, was er weiß. Und er wollte eigentlich viel Geld für die Story haben. Sucht er mit seiner ganzen Geschichte vielleicht nur Aufmerksamkeit? In dieser Folge gehen wir diesen Zweifeln nach.Klaus ist bereit, sich zu öffnen. Er zeigt stern-Reporter Matthias Bolsinger den Ort, an dem seine kriminelle Karriere angefangen hat. Und an dem er den Mann kennenlernte, der später im Fall Luchterhandt in den Fokus der Mordermittler geraten ist.HINWEIS: „Luchterhandt“ erscheint ab dem 23. Mai überall, wo es Podcasts gibt.

Dieser ganze mysteriöse Fall kreist um einen Mann: Alexander Luchterhandt. In dieser Folge stellen wir ihn vor. Und es ist keine Übertreibung, ihn als eine der schillerndsten Figuren der Berliner Medienwelt zu bezeichnen. Luchterhandt lebte in der obersten Etage eines Berliner Hochhauses. Auf dem Dach hatte er eine riesige Antennenanlage montiert, mit der er Tag und Nacht heimlich den Polizei- und Feuerwehrfunk abhörte. Die Informationen verkaufte an Medien – was ihn schnell reich machte.Sein damals engster Geschäftspartner Andreas Markus erzählt stern-Reporter Matthias Bolsinger, wie alles begonnen hat. Berliner Polizeireporter berichten in dieser Folge, wie Luchterhandt ihre Arbeit revolutionierte – aber sie erzählen auch von seiner düsteren Seite. Und dann erinnern sie sich, wie Luchterhandt eines Tages plötzlich verschwunden ist.HINWEIS: „Luchterhandt“ erscheint ab dem 23. Mai überall, wo es Podcasts gibt.

Send me a text! I'd love to know what you're thinking!Tod Bolsinger brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to this conversation, challenging us to resist nostalgia and the allure of a past era—like the 1960s, when the church thrived in a very different context. Reflecting on a quote from Miroslav Volf, Bolsinger, together with Markus Watson, contemplates the dangers of yearning for what no longer exists and the pressing need to adapt to a future we can't fully see yet.Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss this quote from MIroslav Volf in Episode 169, TThe Materiality of God's Mission:“We can't orient ourselves around the old world; it would be dumb for us to do that.  And we don't know how to orient ourselves with a world that hasn't yet been born.” THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:Many of our churches represent an "old world" paradigm, one led by experienced elders rather reminiscent of past church glories.Clinging to past success impedes churches from effectively engaging with and inhabiting the emerging world.Tod Bolsinger underscores the futility of solving new challenges with outdated solutions, advocating for a learning-oriented approach to leadership.Markus Watson acknowledges that navigating without a clear map of the future requires faith and adaptability.Bolsinger insists that the mission isn't to preserve the church but to pass the faith forward, adapting to the world's evolving needs.Did you know Spiritual Life and Leadership has been named the #1 Spiritual Leadership Podcast by the Feedspot Podcasters Database?

In this episode, Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson explore the concept of disequilibrium and its impact on systems, leadership, and organizational health. They discuss how prolonged equilibrium can be detrimental to a system's ability to adapt and innovate, and how crises and moments of disequilibrium can actually reveal underlying problems and present opportunities for growth and change. Drawing from experiences and examples, they highlight the potential for systems and individuals to become stronger, more resilient, and healthier due to the experience of disequilibrium.Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss this quote from Markus Watson in Episode 139: Disequilibrium and the Mission of God :"When a system experiences disequilibrium, the system has the opportunity to become stronger, to become more resilient, and even to become healthier." THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:Experiencing disequilibrium allows a system to become stronger, more resilient, and healthier.Prolonged equilibrium can lead to a loss of ability to adapt.Crises reveal opportunities to hit the organizational reset button and address underlying issues.Disequilibrium can lead to increased capacity and clarity in dealing with crisis and making hard decisions.Disequilibrium or crisis provides opportunities to make a system stronger.Download the FREE course, Becoming Leaders of Shalom.

Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson explore the technological challenges faced by congregations during the pandemic. They discuss a quote from Scott Thumma about the hybrid and customizable nature of the world and its implications for congregations. Tod shares insights on the importance of aligning values with technological adaptations, the decreasing willingness to change post-pandemic, and the need for enduring long-term adaptation. Together, they discuss practical strategies for pastors to navigate these challenges and ensure congregations reflect the ever-changing world.Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss this quote from Scott Thumma in Episode 198: Clergy, Congregations, and Hope After the Pandemic:“Our world is customizable. It is on demand.  It is hybrid.  It's virtual as much as it is in person. In the rest of our lives we've come to understand that's how the rest of the world works. So, we really have to think about how do we make our congregations reflect that.” THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:Scott Thumma suggests that our world has become customizable, on-demand, and virtual, and calls for congregations to reflect the changes in the wider world.Tod Bolsinger emphasizes that adaptive leadership is not just about technical solutions, but about values, behaviors, and attitudes.The decrease in people's willingness to adapt beyond the crisis is observed, signifying the tendency to revert to the familiar when the crisis has passed.Wise and enduring change requires self-reflection and a shift from short-term crisis adaptations to long-term adaptation in a changing environment.Tod Bolsinger recommends that congregations start by identifying their deepest values and then being willing to change everything else to align with those values.Download the FREE course, Becoming Leaders of Shalom.

As a matter of fact, sometimes it means they will let you be the proxy for their formation and what you must learn is how to figure out how to invest that trust in calling people toward genuine transformation. That's what adaptive leadership is.” – Tod Bolsinger “The most important thing about our fruitfulness is that we are faithful to our mission. So obviously, the mission always wins. It's the mission, not the pastor, not the congregants, not the people the path the voices of the past, not the people. It's the mission.” – Tod Bolsinger “The hardest thing for me today is owning that the group is smarter than I am. But I'm not here to impress anybody. I'm here to express what God wants to do.” – Tod Bolsinger When you're experiencing conflict, what so many try to do is stop the conflict when what we need to do is learn from the conflict.” – Tod Bolsinger “The most soul-sucking thing for most leaders is not the challenges of the world, it's the resistance of your own people in your own congregation. It's your own team.” – Tod Bolsinger “Leaders are formed in the leading. So, if you're having a challenge right now, it's not that you messed up, missed a class, or didn't read a book. This is normal. It's normal for you because you became a leader right after you were good at something that was not leading.” – Tod Bolsinger “You become a leader in the crisis of leadership and the crucible of leadership. You must develop honest, vulnerable self-reflection. If you are only defending yourself, you will never be able to be open enough to the shaping that God wants to do in your life.” – Tod Bolsinger “A leader asking for loyalty is a sign of dysfunction almost every time.” – Tod Bolsinger RECOMMENDED RESOURCES Tempered Resilience: How Leaders Are Formed in the Crucible of Change by Tod Bolsinger Canoeing the Mountains: Christian Leadership in Uncharted Territory by Tod Bolsinger Thriving through Ministry Conflict: A Parable on How Resistance Can Be Your Ally by James P.

Shockingly, he went on to kill two more women and attack another before being arrested again, this time serving only one year. But that's not where the story ends. After his second release, Bolsinger went on to commit his final, gruesome murder. It wasn't until 2022 that law enforcement finally connected him to the unsolved murders in Eugene.  Also, you will want to grab a beverage because we will be trying some delicious beer from Falling Sky Brewing in Eugene, Oregon.

Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss this quote from A Failure of Nerve, by Edwin Friedman.“In any type of institution whatsoever, when a self-directed, imaginative, energetic, or creative member is being consistently frustrated and sabotaged rather than encouraged and supported, what will turn out to be true one hundred percent of the time, regardless of whether the disrupters are supervisors, subordinates, or peers, is that the person at the very top of that institution is a peace-monger.”Learn how to lead your church into ministry that matters.

We're hosting an event with Tod, see episode notes to register! What do you do when plan A fails? In a fascinating comparison to Lewis and Clark's expedition, Tod Bolsinger, author of Canoeing the Mountains and vice president and chief of leadership formation at Fuller Theological Seminary, depicts leadership as an unpredictable journey that takes you off the map into uncharted territories.

This week, Chris and Eddie have an important conversation about leadership with Tod Bolsinger, senior congregational strategist and associate professor of leadership formation at Fuller Theological Seminary and author of Canoeing the Mountains, a book about adaptive leadership. Tod wants to help leaders--church leaders, community leaders, business leaders--understand how to lead in a world that is constantly changing. For a long time, leadership has been seen as solving technical problems with technical solutions. And while that aspect of leadership is incredibly important, especially in building trust, today's world is vastly different from the world of 20 years ago. Today, the answer to the question, “Now what do we do?” is often, “I don't know.” Today, leadership looks more like learning and less like exerting authority because of technical expertise.So how do we lead change in the changing world? There is no simple answer to this complex question, but Tod has a few ideas and a lot of hope for current and future leaders, where we embrace what we don't know and learn to lead the learning.Resources: Find books by Tod, including Canoeing the Mountains, on IVPressLearn more about AE Sloan Leadership
