In our journey through Ecclesiastes, we're confronted with the stark reality of life's challenges and the seeming futility of our pursuits. The teacher reminds us that without God, our efforts are merely 'chasing after the wind.' But amidst this sobering message, we find a powerful truth: we're not meant to face life alone. The passage emphasizes that 'two are better than one,' highlighting the importance of community in our faith walk. This echoes throughout Scripture, with the concept of 'one another' appearing over 75 times. As we reflect on this, let's consider how we can deepen our connections within our church family, supporting each other through life's trials. Are we truly living out the radically social nature of Christianity, or are we trying to navigate our faith in isolation?

I'm joined by Katie “Wildy” Brown—former Arizona Trail self-supported record holder and fresh off the Millwood 100, a 102-mile Wasatch linkup with ~37,000 feet of vert designed by Jared Campbell. We break down what Millwood actually is (route, not race), why she started at night, when the wheels got wobbly on night two, and how crew and pacers changed the game. Katie talks RUFA, Salt Lake's inversion (and why you literally run through it), and lessons from the mostly self-supported Plains 100—moon dust, SAR checkpoints, and an asthma scare at mile 100. We get into toughness vs. speed, route finding with cliff-band consequences, French-fry aid, ER-nurse night shifts, trail names (Wildy!), and why the Wasatch keeps calling her back.

In this episode, Avik Kandas engages in a heartfelt conversation with Leif Gregersen, a mental health advocate who shares his personal journey with bipolar disorder. They discuss the complexities of mental health, the importance of breaking the stigma surrounding mental illness, and how helping others can be a powerful tool for healing. Leif emphasizes the need for education and understanding in mental health, offering advice for families supporting loved ones and encouragement for those struggling with their mental health. The episode serves as a reminder that recovery is possible and that sharing our stories can foster compassion and connection. Takeaways Mental health journeys are deeply personal and often non-linear. Leif Gregersen's story highlights the importance of sharing experiences to educate others. Helping others can be a form of healing for oneself. Stigma surrounding mental illness needs to be addressed through open conversations. Education about mental health should be integrated into school curriculums. Companionship with others who understand mental illness is crucial for support. Recovery is a gradual process that requires persistence and support. Families should connect with support groups to better assist their loved ones. Compassion and understanding can bridge the gap between fear and acceptance. Mental health advocacy is essential for creating awareness and reducing stigma.

BUFFALO, NY — October 9, 2025 — A new #research paper was #published in Volume 17, Issue 9 of Aging-US on August 22, 2025, titled, “The impact of long-term social housing on biconditional association task performance and neuron ensembles in the anterior cingulate cortex and the hippocampal CA3 region of aged rats.” The research team led by Anne M. Dankert from Providence College and University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, showed that aged rats who lived in socially enriched environments throughout life retained better memory and cognitive flexibility than those housed alone. This study highlights the importance of social interaction in protecting the aging brain. Cognitive decline, such as memory loss and reduced problem-solving ability, affects many people over the age of 65. While many factors contribute to age-related cognitive decline, this study suggests that one key factor may be surprisingly simple: long-term social connection. To explore how social interaction might influence memory performance and brain activity, the researchers designed a study using rats as a model for aging in humans. “Cognitive decline and changes in neuronal activity are hallmarks of aging.” They compared three groups of rats: young adults, aged rats housed alone, and aged rats housed socially in groups. All groups had access to the same physical enrichment, such as exercise and stimulating objects, but only some experienced lifelong social companionship. The team tested these animals on a complex memory challenge known as the biconditional association task, which requires animals to make context-based decisions—an ability that typically declines with age. The results showed that aged rats living in social groups performed just as well as young adults on the memory task, while those housed alone showed significant impairments. Socially housed rats also made fewer working memory errors and required less effort to complete cognitive tasks, suggesting not only better performance but more efficient brain function. These benefits were not observed in aged rats who received only environmental enrichment without social interaction. Brain imaging revealed additional differences between the groups. Socially housed aged rats showed increased activity in the hippocampus, particularly in the CA3 region, which plays a key role in forming and separating memories. In contrast, aged rats that lived alone had lower activity in this region, which may explain their poorer performance. Interestingly, socially housed rats also showed reduced overactivity in the anterior cingulate cortex—a brain area involved in attention and decision-making—suggesting a more balanced and efficient neural response. This research provides new insight into how lifelong social experiences shape brain health during aging. While earlier studies have shown that physical activity and cognitive stimulation help preserve cognitive function, this study identifies social interaction as an independent and powerful protective factor. The findings are consistent with human studies showing that older adults who remain socially active tend to experience slower cognitive decline and stronger brain function. Overall, these results emphasize that brain aging is not inevitable but may be influenced by our social environments. This research suggests that fostering lifelong social connections could be a critical, low-cost strategy to protect memory and mental flexibility in older adults.

Dave and Bethlie discuss the 4th book in this series. Solving Marriage Problems by Jay E. Adams. Chapter 1 p. 2. Husbands and wives must grow as individuals in conformity to Christ in order to be compatible with each other. What this book is all about? Marriage problems of all sorts. Causes of these problems Ways of detecting, categorizing, naming and describing problems in a biblical manner. Ways of reaching biblical solutions to marriage problems Chapter 3 - What causes Marriage Problems? The basic cause is always sin. But sin manifests itself in two ways: in erroneous concepts and in sinful attitudes or practices p 11 Wrong living will be changed only by rooting out the fundamental cause in a person's thinking. P. 12 Correcting organic problems do not make everything better. An organic problem may include bad attitudes to develop or cause a breakdown in communication. Correcting the problem does not automatically correct the attitude and the communication. Those have to be corrected separately. Chapter 4 - UnBiblical Concepts about Marriage The purpose of marriage is to meet man's need for companionship. Marriage was designed to defeat loneliness. Companionship, therefore, is the essence of marriage. This is why fornication, adultery and polygamy are wrong. They vitiate true companionship because they destroy the intimacy of a constant, close relationship. The Obligation of marriage is to vow to provide companionship for another for the rest of their lives. It is not about receiving companionship but about giving it.

How is love of money so evil? Ecclesiastes 4:7–12 looks forward to the call to worship in public worship on the coming Lord's Day. In these six verses of Holy Scripture, the Holy Spirit teaches us that love of money rejects both the fellowship of God and the fellowship of man. The family devotional lesson explores the vanity and misfortune of pursuing labor solely for personal gain, emphasizing the necessity of fellowship with God and with others for a meaningful life. Drawing from Ecclesiastes 4, it argues that true purpose and strength are found not in isolated striving but in relationships—both human and divine—where mutual support and God's presence provide comfort, resilience, and lasting significance. Ultimately, the message underscores that God's presence is the essential third strand that binds human connections, transforming individual efforts into a source of shared blessing and enduring purpose.

I have been incredibly blessed over the past several years to connect with other individuals who are doing similar work. Laura Howe is one of those people. Laura and I met as part of a mastermind we were both in. Where I focus on helping individual women come alongside their loved ones who are hurting, she focuses on equipping the church to support those in their congregations and communities. She does this through her organization, Hope Made Strong. Back in 2021, we were each other's podcasts, and today, I want to share an excerpt from my interview on her podcast. Laura and I talk about the power of companionship for those who are hurting, plus how your church can minister to the grieving during the Christmas season by offering a Blue Christmas service.

An anthropologist and a psychiatrist weigh in on “AI psychosis,” following several recent, high-profile cases of users losing touch with reality during conversations with bots. The summer COVID spike is here, but new FDA vaccine restrictions limit who can get a booster, and CDC turmoil impacts U.S. public health policy. Critics review the latest film releases: “Caught Stealing,” “The Roses,” “The Toxic Avenger,” and “A Little Prayer.” Finger clapping — touching your thumb and middle finger together in a form of silent applause — may seem like a hot new thing on TikTok. But the queer ballroom scene has been doing it for years.

In this Sermon, Apostle shared a powerful reminder about God's design for human connection. From the very beginning, in Genesis 2:18, God declared, “It is not good for the man to be alone.”This truth wasn't just about marriage, but about the broader danger of solitude.
