Join Jill for the five-year anniversary of Be YOU - a special live podcast event celebrating 300 episodes of the podcast - on Saturday, October 25th from 1–5 p.m. in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Tickets are selling fast at jillherman.com/beyou, and discounted rooms are available at a boutique hotel right next door! Listen in this week as we revisit episode 93 of Be YOU. Given the devastating news about her father that Jill shared in her last episode, she felt that this episode's topic was a perfect one to revisit - the importance and the beauty of embracing whatever season of life that you're in, no matter how difficult that it may be. ​​This episode stresses the fact that each person's journey and the seasons that they go through in life will look different, but it's always important to keep in mind that there is divine purpose in every season and that regardless if things are progressing slowly or quickly, it's how they were meant to progress. Jill encourages listeners to surrender to and fully experience the season that they are in, rather than wishing it away or trying to spiritually bypass the difficult emotions. Jill clarifies, however, that this does not mean burying your head in the sand and giving up on your dreams or goals but rather embodying the vibration of what you desire while also honoring the present moment. She shares that learning to put yourself first without guilt or apology is one of the greatest acts of love you can give yourself and even those around you. This oldie but goodie from 2021 reminds listeners to avoid comparing their journey to others and to simply focus on swimming their own race, trusting that everything is unfolding as it should. Remember, your time will come! Show Notes: [00:07] - Jill announces that she is replaying a past episode due to her current struggle with grief. [05:47] - Each season of your life carries its own purpose, even when it feels unbearable. [08:17] - Jill argues that surrendering to difficulty may be the only way to align with your future goals. [11:00] - Your time will come, but it will happen even more slowly unless you embrace the season that you're in. [14:09] - Unapologetically prioritizing yourself without explanation is an act of self-love that ripples into every relationship. [17:11] - “Swimming” at your own pace is the quickest way to become whole.

Join Jill for the five-year anniversary of Be YOU - a special live podcast event celebrating 300 episodes of the podcast - on Saturday, October 25th from 1–5 p.m. in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Tickets are selling fast at jillherman.com/beyou, and discounted rooms are available at a boutique hotel right next door! Jill truly gets profoundly personal in this episode with a heartfelt discussion, sharing her recent and emotionally devastating discovery that her vibrant, health-conscious father has been diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer. Known for his athleticism, emotional openness, and joyful presence, her father has always been Jill's hero, and she is now facing the stark reality of having to say goodbye. What Jill shares in this episode of Be YOU, though, is more than a story about illness and grief. She reflects on the experience of witnessing death up close for the first time, despite a long career in nursing where she has comforted others through it. She explores the emotions of loss that she knows is coming, the resurfacing of old wounds, and the pressure that we sometimes feel to minimize our own pain in the face of others' suffering. This episode is also an honest and needed look at how we respond to people who are hurting, with Jill challenging some of the well-meaning phrases that we often default to such as “Keep me updated,” “Let me know if you need anything,” and “Thoughts and prayers,” explaining how even well-meaning words can unintentionally shift the burden to the person who is already struggling as it is. Instead, she offers practical, heartfelt alternatives that prioritize sincerity and tangible support. Listen in for a chance to reflect on how to show up for others and, of course, how to receive care, too. Whether you're in a season of grief, supporting someone who is, or simply want to communicate with more intention and love, this episode is one that you don't want to miss! Show Notes: [01:30] - Jill expresses that she looks up to her father because of his emotional openness, positivity, and self-care. [03:23] - We learn that Jill just discovered that her beloved dad is dying from silent, aggressive pancreatic cancer, her first deep loss. [05:32] - Jill stresses that our words carry weight, especially in grief, and deserve honesty but consideration. [07:27] - Saying "keep me updated" or "let me know" places the burden on the grieving, so check in and make specific offers. [08:40] - Jill offers some specific examples of what can be said instead. [10:14] - Asking someone the age of the person dying can minimize grief; every loss is valid, no matter the circumstances. [13:35] - Despite grief and exhaustion, Jill reminds listeners of the upcoming Be YOU event in October.

What is it that God is calling us to when He says, “Come and worship”? Let's seek to answer that question by looking first at some… Biblical Examples of Worship.The first example is found in Psalm 95. It gives us not only a call to worship, it also provides a pattern for worship. Celebration (v. 1-5) Notice the phrases “sing for joy,” “shout aloud,” and “let us extol Him.” Worship is a time for God's people to celebrate their Lord. Adoration (v. 6-7) Here we're called to “bow down,” to “kneel” before the Lord. It is a quieter, more intimate response.Instruction (v. 8-11) The psalmist says, “Today if you hear His voice, do not harden your hearts.” Part of worship is hearing God's Word. Psalm 96 provides us with a few additional insights. The very first word in this psalm is “sing.” Three times in the first two verses, we are told to “sing to the Lord.” This is one of the most common commands in Scripture. This is why singing is such an integral part of our corporate worship gatherings. As you worship the Lord…Sing boldly.Sing thoughtfully.Sing wholeheartedly.Sing skillfully.Something else we see in Psalm 96 is the call to “bring an offering.” (v. 7-9) Giving to God is an act of worship. As such, when we give, we should…Be intentional.Be thoughtful.Be cheerful.Next, let's look at some…Biblical Expressions of Worship.Here are eight Hebrew words, often translated as “praise,” that may revolutionize your worship.1.     Halal: to boast; to celebrate; to be vigorously joyful; to be clamorously foolish (Ps. 35:18) Halal is the more common word for “praise” in the Psalms. It's the root from which we get the term “hallelujah.” It's is an explosion of enthusiasm in the act of praising. 2.     Tehilla: to sing; to laud (Ps. 33:1) Literally, this is the singing of one's halals. 3.     Zamar: to touch the strings; to make music (Ps. 104:33) This is why we use instruments in our worship.4.     Shabach: to address in a loud tone; to triumph; to glory (Ps. 145:4) This is a loud verbalization of praise—a shout. 5.     Shachah: to bow down; to pay homage; to prostrate oneself; to have the arrogance knocked out (Ps. 96:9) This refers to lying prostrate, flat on your face before the Lord.6.     Barak: to kneel down expecting a blessing from God; to bless God as an act of adoration (Ps. 34:1) This is kneeling before God in humility and surrender, but also expectation. 7.     Yada: to acknowledge God's character; to make a declaration of worship; to throw out the hand enjoying God (Ps. 63:3-4) This involves lifting our hands to the Lord in worship.8.     Todah: to extend hands in thanksgiving and acceptance; to offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving (Ps. 116:17) This also involves the lifting of hands to the Lord, but it more specifically has to do with offering a sacrifice of praise.  Text: Psalm 95, 96Originally recorded on January 24, 1999, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN

What is worship? Here are a few definitions:Worship is the total adoring response of man to the Eternal God. Worship is responding to all that God is with all that I have.Worship is an active response to God whereby we declare His worth.Do you see some common threads? First of all, worship is an active response. There is no such thing as passive worship. Secondly, worship is to God. It's not “me”-focused. It is ever and always a God-centered activity. But what happens when worship deteriorates into something else? And how does that happen?To help us answer those questions, we're going to look at one of the darkest chapters in the Old Testament— a time when the worship of God's people totally unraveled. In Exodus 32, Moses had gone up Mt. Sinai to receive the law from God and had been gone for many days. The people started getting restless, so they went to Aaron (Moses' brother) and asked him to “make us gods” to worship. So, Aaron created a golden calf and invited the people to worship it. The people's worship of this “god” devolved into drunkenness and revelry. When God saw this, He was angry and ready to destroy them. How did this happen? How did their worship so utterly deteriorate and what observations can we make related to our own worship? 1.     Worship deteriorates when it becomes casual.These people did not abandon worship or forget God altogether. They simply wanted to make Him more palatable, more controllable. You might be wondering, “Did they know any better? What had their encounters with God been like before this?”  Exodus 19 gives us a snapshot. God has given Moses instructions to gather the people to encounter Him. God's presence was displayed through fire, smoke, thunder, lightning, and the sound of a trumpet. The holiness and fearsomeness of God filled the people with awe. Could you imagine anyone in that crowd picking their fingernails or chatting with their neighbor? Would anyone dare critique the presentation? No! They trembled with holy fear because they realized they were in the presence of the Living God!Friends, when we gather for worship, the same God is here! But all too easily we can lose our sense of awe and trivialize God by making worship casual.Here are three ways you can begin to challenge the drift to casual worship.Come prepared. We prepare for what matters. Come on time. We prioritize what matters.Come with a sense of commitment. Commit to worship with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength.2.     Worship deterioriates when it becomes consumer-oriented.The Israelites asked Aaron to “make us gods to go before us.” They focus was on them. Consumer-oriented worship has its emphasis on what I want, what I get out of it. It sits back with arms folded and says, “Wow me.”  It critiques worship as one might a show.But real worship focuses on God and responding to Him as He deserves, not as we prefer.  3.     Worship deteriorates when it becomes compartmentalized.That is, it becomes disconnected from life.  In Ex. 32, the people went straight from “worship” to behavior that was disgusting and dishonoring to God. If our worship is simply going through motions, God is not impressed. Worship is meaningful to God only to the extent that it is the reflection of the authentic desires of my heart and an extension of my lifestyle on a day by day basis.  Text: Exodus 32, 19Originally recorded on January 10, 1999, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN

Red-Hot South Bend Cubs Sweep Doubleheader, Extend Win Streak to Six The South Bend Cubs stayed scorching hot on Saturday, sweeping a road doubleheader against the Fort Wayne TinCaps with gritty, clutch performances to stretch their winning streak to six games—and five straight at Parkview Field this series. The Cubs took Game 1 by a score of 3–1 and followed it with a dominant 4–0 victory in Game 2. In the opener, the Cubs plated a run on a bases-loaded balk in the 5th, then broke a 1–1 tie in the top of the 7th. Carter Trice delivered a soft but perfectly placed fly ball single to center field, scoring Reginald Preciado and Drew Bowser. Starter Ryan Gallagher shined again, tossing 5.2 sharp innings, allowing just one run while striking out eight—his third consecutive strong outing. Joe Nahas slammed the door with a lockdown relief appearance. Game 2 belonged to South Bend’s starter, who pitched a brilliant, complete game shutout, scattering just four hits and fanning five. The offense ignited in the 3rd inning as Andy Garriola ripped a bases-clearing double. Brian Kalmer added an RBI double in the 4th to cap the scoring. The Cubs look to finish the series sweep Sunday afternoon. Pregame at 12:45, first pitch at 1:05 p.m. on Sports Radio WSBT.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Cubs Rally in 9th to Win 11–9 in Thriller over TinCaps In the top of the 9th, trailing by one, Carter Trice launched a two-run homer—his 7th of the season—to give the South Bend Cubs a 10–9 lead over the Fort Wayne TinCaps. Felix Stevens, on a rehab assignment, followed with a solo blast to center, capping a thrilling three-run rally and securing an 11–9 Cubs victory—their second straight 11-run performance. South Bend out-hit Fort Wayne 14–12 in the back-and-forth slugfest. Catcher Ariel Armas had a standout game, going 3-for-5 with two doubles, four RBIs, and a stolen base. Edward Alvarez added three hits and two RBIs, while Stevens chipped in with two hits of his own. The Cubs offense struck in bunches, scoring four in the 3rd, and one run each in the 4th and 5th. They plated two more in the 6th before their ninth-inning heroics. Despite giving up nine runs in the first five innings, South Bend’s bullpen dominated late. Chase Watkins threw 2.1 scoreless innings, and Johzan Oquendo closed the door with five strikeouts in two hitless innings to earn the win. An electric, comeback-filled win in this battle of Indiana’s minor league rivals. Next Game: Wednesday at 6:45 PM on Sports Radio WSBT.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tickets are selling fast at jillherman.com/beyou, and discounted rooms are available at a boutique hotel right next door! Jill spends some time this episode reflecting on her recent move from a large country home to a downtown apartment, candidly sharing how she broke free from her lifelong pattern of procrastination and stress around big projects. By embracing help, delegating tasks, and staying in her "zone of genius" for project management, Jill is happy to announce that the move went remarkably smoothly. However, she also acknowledges a lingering blind spot - neglecting her own personal space which has triggered a discussion around her tendency to prioritize others' needs over her own. Drawing on the wisdom of a psychologist friend, Jill unpacks the deeper significance of the physical symptoms that she experienced around this transition, including a UTI, yeast infection, and a burn on her arm. Through this lens of mind-body-spirit connection, she shares some powerful revelations about releasing control, honoring feminine intuition, and allowing herself to fully feel and process the complex emotions stirred up by major life changes. Jill also stresses the importance of self-compassion over self-judgment and invites listeners to be open to the potential messages that their own bodies and experiences may be trying to convey to you. This episode of Be YOU offers listeners a raw, relatable, and insightful glimpse into Jill's world, encouraging you to approach your own life with curiosity and courage! Show Notes: [01:32] - Jill recently moved into her new apartment, overcoming her lifelong stress pattern. [03:21] - By planning early and delegating, Jill managed the move efficiently and used her strengths.

Worship is basic to everything else in the walk of faith. Seeing God for who He really is and responding to Him as he truly deserves is at the center of everything the church believes, practices, and seeks to accomplish. It is so important, that if it gets off track, it is disastrous for the people of God.When the people lost their awe of God and let their worship deteriorate, everything else fell apart. They began to compromise and fall into sin. They lost their passion for the lost around them. They stopped giving sacrificially and dissension arose within their ranks.  When worship got fuzzy it led to cold hearts, hard spirits, and the death of love.The Bible gives us three reasons why worship matters both personally and corporately. 1.     Worship is the dividing line of all humanity. Essentially, all human beings can be divided into two groups: those who willingly bow their knee to the true and Living God, and those who do not…and will not. This line was first seen back in the book of Genesis with the first two people ever born—Cain and Abel. Abel gave God his first and his best, and God was pleased. But Cain only gave “some” of his crops. His worship was careless and mindless, and God was displeased. In the end, Cain's hardened heart led him to murder his brother. (Gen. 4:1-12)  A failure to worship wholeheartedly not only dishonors God, it removes you from God's blessing, and is the first step toward sin gaining a foothold in your life.  2.     Worship is the destiny of the redeemed.We were made to worship. We were saved so that we might “declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light.” (1 Pet. 2:9) And one day, when we see Him face to face, we will worship Him fully, an eternal celebration of the wonders and glories of God.But we don't have to wait until then to experience His presence.  You can know the firstfruits of that here and now as you provide Him a throne in your worship. 3.     Worship is the one disctinctive that God cannot give Himself. God is completely self-existent. He depends no one and no thing for anything. And yet, there is one thing He cannot give Himself: people who will worship Him. Indeed, He longs for this. In John 4:23, Jesus said that the Father is seeking those who will worship Him in Spirit and in truth.Will you be one who says, “I will be that kind of worshipper. I will respond to all that You are with all that I have.” Text: Genesis 4:1-12; 1 Peter 2:9; Revelation 19:5-10; John 4:23 Originally recorded on January 3, 1999, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN

Join Jill for the five-year anniversary of Be YOU - a special live podcast event celebrating 300 episodes of the podcast - on Saturday, October 25th from 1–5 p.m. in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Tickets are selling fast at jillherman.com/beyou, and discounted rooms are available at a boutique hotel right next door! Join Jill this week as she shares some fresh insights from her recent coaching group for moms - Plot Twist: Only Moms Edition - and offers ten tips for how to be a well-resourced person! She invites listeners to embrace a simple daily rhythm, like starting the day with a glass of water or a favorite song that instantly shifts your mood, and she challenges the overwhelming amount of nervous system “tools” out there and instead encourages accessible, low-key practices like standing barefoot outside or using box breathing while waiting in line. Jill also reflects on the range of emotions that many moms face, introducing the concept of the “window of tolerance,” or that delicate space where we can feel all our emotions without spiraling, shutting down, or melting down. She explores how being “well-resourced” means building your own toolkit that helps you stay inside that safe emotional space, even when life gets messy. She stresses that this toolkit is not just about physical preparedness (like having batteries and paper products at home) but also about emotional resources, such as having one supportive person who truly holds space for you without judgment. You can also expect to hear Jill get real about phone boundaries. Yes, that's definitely a tough one, but Jill reflects on her own struggles and practical strategies to build a much healthier relationship with digital distractions, encouraging listeners to put your phone on airplane mode for chunks of the day or setting timers to avoid “scroll holes.” If you are someone who struggles with any of what Jill talks about here and feel like you could use some insights into how to be better resourced, then this is an episode of Be YOU that you will not want to miss! Show Notes: [01:43] - Jill reveals that there is no more group coaching until November, but there will be quick-question support launching via Telegram in July. [04:12] - Jill reminds listeners that a live podcast event celebrating 300 episodes is set for October 25 in Fort Wayne, Indiana! [05:21] - Learn about the “window of tolerance” and the importance of being well-resourced. [08:11] - Jill's first suggestion for staying well-resourced is to have a simple, daily rhythm such as morning water or music. [09:12] - Secondly, grounding exercises like barefoot standing or breathwork to soothe the nervous system are important. [10:08] - #3 is to have one person who listens and supports you without trying to fix you. [10:57] - For her fourth tip, Jill recommends having a connection to something larger like the universe, the cosmos, or a god. [11:50] - The fifth tip is to try limiting phone use to avoid unconscious, time-draining scrolling. [13:07] - #6: When you're overwhelmed or detached, return to your personal anchor via breath, movement, and/or nature. [14:58] - #7 is to allow yourself to feel your emotions and to not apologize for them. [16:00] - For her eighth tip, Jill stresses nourishment, which includes not just food but also pleasure, sunlight, music, etc. [16:53] - The ninth tip is to get comfortable with saying “no” to protect your energy and self-respect. [18:04] - Jill's tenth and final tip is to use reminders of who you are such as mantras, playlists, or videos. [19:32] - Jill offers a recap of the ten tips. [22:04] - Staying within your window of tolerance depends on how resourced, rested, and nourished you are!

Blind Spots Part 11- Talking Too Much | Dr. Khalid Griffin | Redemption Church Fort WayneSometimes, the problem isn't silence—it's saying too much at the wrong time. In this week's message, Pastor Khalid teaches from Ecclesiastes 3:1,7 and Matthew 16:13–23, showing us that talking too much isn't just about oversharing, but about lacking discernment.Knowing when, how, and to whom to speak—and when to be silent—is key to spiritual maturity.Big Idea Reflection: What drives my decision to speak up or be silent?Watch now and learn how to let wisdom guide your words.

There are certain passages in this book that are downright stunning to me. For instance, Paul doesn't just tell the Philippians to “rejoice in the Lord,” he tells them to “rejoice in the Lord always” (Phil. 4:4). He doesn't just say, “don't worry,” he says, “don't worry about anything” (Phil. 4:6) Now in today's passage, Paul says, “I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation” (Phil. 4:12)Remember, Paul isn't able to say these things because his life has been easy. Just the opposite! He faced life-threatening circumstances over and over again, all for the sake of Christ. Indeed, at the very moment he penned these words he was chained to a guard in a Roman prison. Even so, Paul had “learned the secret” of being content. What can we learn from Paul that can help us learn to be content no matter what comes our way?The Greek word Paul uses for contentment means “satisfaction with what one has; independence from all things and all people.” It's the idea of not needing anything, anyone, or any change in the circumstances in order to be at peace.But how do you get there?  In Paul's day, as in ours, there were two philosophies that people followed to ease their discontent. Counterfeit contentment, you could say. Contentment isn't a matter of giving in to stoicism. Stoicism believes the goal is to get rid of desire, to eliminate emotion. In other words, to simply not care. In today's parlance, the watchword would be “whatever.” “My job's been eliminated. Whatever. I don't care.”But this is not what Paul is talking about.Contentment isn't a matter of turning in to self-sufficiency. This is the philosophy of the Cynics. One of their beliefs is to trust no one but yourself. The problem with that is, the only resources you have are the ones you can muster up, and when those run out, you're out of luck. That's why Cynics are seldom content; they're bitter.So, what's Paul's secret? It's found in verse 13. “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."This is one of the most popular verses in the Bible, used as motivation by athletes and millions of others facing challenging situations. But we would do well to understand that the original context of these words has to do with learning to be content.  What they remind us is that…Contentment is a matter of leaning in to divine sovereignty. Paul's contentment was anchored in His awareness that Christ was enough and that his life was controlled by a sovereign God who worked all things together for our good and His glory.Here are some actions steps that can help us when discontentment creeps in.Ponder: thank God for all that you do have. Discontentment is largely triggered by ingratitude. Instead of focusing on what isn't, thank God for what is. One of the secrets of contentment is gratitude.Wonder: ask yourself what God might be up to. God is always at work. What might He want you to learn about Him, about you? How might He use these circumstances for the greater progress of the gospel?Surrender: trust God's heart rather than your understanding.  There will be times when God's actions baffle us. In those moments, we much surrender our need to understand the situation and fall back on what you know is true about God – His character and love for you.  Text: Philippians 4:10-13, 2 Corinthians 11:23-28; 12:7-12Originally recorded on February 1, 2009, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN

Coming up next on Police Pod Talk a heartfelt tribute to one of Fort Wayne's finest. Over the next four episodes, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday Police Pod Talk is proud to honor the life and legacy of retired Fort Wayne Police Officer and beloved Detective, Tim Russell—a man whose badge carried weight, but whose smile carried more. Tim wasn't just a well-known name in the Fort Wayne Police Department. He was a respected Detective, a familiar face in the community, and a friend to students, teachers, and neighbors alike. From the streets to the schools, everyone knew Officer Russell. But more than his titles or his tenure, Tim will always be remembered for one simple thing—his heart. He was the kind of Officer who could walk into a squad meeting, say almost nothing, and still have the whole room in tears laughing—just by being there. His presence alone brought lightness to the job and comfort to those around him. In a world of tension, Tim Russell was relief. He was real. He was funny. And somehow, he always got the job done. These next four episodes are never-before-aired conversations that were once left on the cutting room floor. But in light of Tim's passing, our host felt it was only right to dust them off and play them—in honor of one of Fort Wayne's finest, and certainly one of its funniest. Join us as we remember a man who didn't just wear the badge—he wore the respect and love of an entire city. This is for you, Detective Tim Russell.

This chapter unfolds like a domestic battlefield. The Holy Spirit makes us witnesses of envy, rivalry, superstition, and even more deceptive schemes within the Patriarch Jacob's household. Rachel and Leah are locked in competition for children; they even barter mandrakes and offer up their maidservants in an effort to prevail as the most honored wife and mother. And Jacob? He's caught in the middle, but he's not without sin. He willingly participates in this baby battle and succeeds in multiplying sons, but not peace. However, behind it all YHWH is still at work fulfilling his promises.   The Rev. Dr. Walter Maier, III, professor of exegetical theology at Concordia Theological Seminary in Fort Wayne, IN, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Genesis 30.  Genesis isn't just the start of the Bible; it's the foundation of everything. Creation, sin, judgment, grace, covenant, and promise all take root in this remarkable book. The stories are ancient, but their truths are eternal. In this new series from Thy Strong Word, Pastor Phil Booe and his guests walk verse by verse through Genesis, exploring how God reveals Himself as Creator, Judge, and Redeemer. From the grandeur of the cosmos to the struggles of ordinary families, Genesis introduces us to a God who speaks, acts, and keeps His promises. So, whether you've read it a hundred times or are just now cracking it open for a serious look, this series will help you see Genesis with fresh eyes—and a deeper faith. Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

This episode was recorded in Fort Wayne, Indiana, during the 2025 Tri-State Dairy Conference. Dr. Laporta gives an overview of her presentation, focusing on the impact of heat stress during the dry period on the cow, her daughters and her granddaughters. She covers heat stress impacts on mammary gland involution, as well as fetal programming effects on the daughter and granddaughter. (3:37)Daughters of heat-stressed cows have fewer sweat glands located deeper in the skin, thicker skin and more sebaceous glands. This was observed at birth, weaning and puberty. They sweat more than heifers who weren't heat stressed in utero, but have higher rectal temperatures during the preweaning phase. Dr. Laporta hypothesizes that if those calves were exposed to additional stress, they would be more susceptible to illness because of the higher core temperature.  (6:34)The panel discusses heat stress impacts on male fetuses and the potential for epigenetic changes to be transmitted through semen. Dr. Gerloff asks about differences in the impacts of heat stress on first-calf heifers compared to older cows. Dr. Laporta describes the survival rates of heifers who were heat-stressed in utero. Heifers are lost from the herd even before first calving, with more following in first and second lactation.  (11:00)Dr. Laporta outlines the differences between heat-stressed and cooled treatments in her experiments. They measure respiration rates and rectal temperatures to assess the physiological impacts of heat stress in the cows. Scott asks how long the heat stress period needs to be in order to observe negative effects. Dr. Gerloff asks about calf mortality rates between the two groups. Dr. Laporta estimates a 12% death loss in the heat stress groups, who seem to be more susceptible to the usual calf illnesses. It appears that gut closure might occur earlier in heat-stressed calves - maybe even before birth, which does not bode well for their immune systems. (16:49)Dr. Laporta details how heat stress impacts mammary gland involution. Early in the dry period, you want a spike in cell death to build new cells for the next lactation. In heat-stressed cows, the spike in cell death early in the dry period is diminished, not allowing those cells to die. This results in less proliferation of the mammary gland, and the cow starts her next lactation with older cells that weren't renewed in full. Thus, producing less milk. Dr. Gerloff shares some of his experiences with heat stress in his area of Illinois. (22:17)Heat stress has negative impacts on other organs as well. Heifers who experienced heat stress in utero are born with larger adrenal glands with altered microstructure. Dr. Laporta describes some of the DNA methylation that has been observed in these heifers. The panel discusses whether the response would be similar for other types of stressors, like cold stress or social stress. (26:19)What can we do to mitigate these impacts? Cooling dry cows so they can thermoregulate during gestation is critical. Altering diets to account for heat stress is also an important strategy. Unfortunately, there is no magic bullet to “fix” cows who were exposed to heat stress in utero, but these negative implications can be prevented. Dr. Laporta has also focused on what she calls perinatal programming - after the calf is born, what can we do? She has been working to develop cooling mechanisms for calves and is interested in further investigating early life mammary development. (33:41)When a dry cow experiences heat stress, she has fewer and smaller alveoli. Daughters of those cows have smaller udders with altered tissue growth. Granddaughters of those cows have fewer estrogen receptors in their udders and negative impacts on mammary proliferation. (44:30)Panelists share their take-home thoughts.
