Most LCMS congregations offer some kind of adult education—but is it actually forming mature disciples? Dr. Mark Blanke joins Tim to unpack decades of research showing why quality matters far more than quantity, the eight best practices of effective adult education, and why small, intentional shifts could radically change faith formation across our Synod. They explore how Jesus' question-based teaching style outperforms lecture-heavy models, why evaluation is essential, and how congregations can create a clear vision for what a “maturing disciple” looks like. This is a practical, Spirit-led conversation every church leader should hear.Support the showWatch Us On Youtube!

Welcome back to Ditch the Lab Coat with Dr. Mark Bonta—a podcast where we cut through health hype with evidence, curiosity, and a good dose of scientific skepticism. In this special solo episode, Dr. Bonta takes a step back to reflect on what he's learned after recording over 70 episodes with experts across medicine, wellness, and psychology.Instead of chasing the latest biohacks and trendy do's, Dr. Bonta shares his take on the “don'ts” that could make the biggest difference to our health: don't load your pantry with ultra-processed foods, don't rely on fad diets without respecting your biology, don't ignore your mental resilience, don't keep screens in your bedroom, and don't underestimate the lifelong dangers of substance use—especially alcohol. Drawing from fascinating past guests and peppered with real-life anecdotes, this episode is packed with practical, evidence-based advice that's more about avoiding pitfalls than perfecting routines.So plug in as Dr. Bonta looks back, revisits his birthday reflections, and gives us a no-nonsense breakdown of the habits (and substances) to ditch for a healthier, happier life.Episode Highlights1. Courage to Lead Change — Courage is essential to make necessary healthcare changes; everyone knows what to do, but few are willing to go first. 2. Unlearning as Growth — Success requires letting go of outdated practices, even those we've clung to for decades. 3. Nurses Leading Change — Nurses are often the ones who recognize and push for better patient care, even in the face of resistance. 4. The Role of Clinical Experts — Real-time support from experts can turn ideas into action and prevent regression under pressure. 5. Listening to the Team — Culture change starts with listening to those on the frontlines and empowering their voice. 6. A Better Way to Wean Ventilators — Traditional weaning methods can fail; a spontaneous breathing trial may be more effective. 7. The Importance of Protocols — A clear process protects patients from inconsistency and ensures evidence-based care. 8. Sedation's Downside — Sedation can cause harm; it's time to shift from automatic comfort to mindful, minimal use. 9. The Awakening Moment — A pivotal story about witnessing patients walking while intubated—and the shift it sparked. 10. Belief Before Buy-In — Seeing isn't always believing. Sometimes you must believe there's a better way before you ever see it. 11. What's Possible in Patient Recovery — Awake and mobile patients can achieve more than we think—even while critically ill. 12. Learning From Others — Growth often begins by learning from those who've already done what we thought was impossible. 13. Walking While Intubated — Real-world proof that mobility while ventilated isn't just a theory—it's being done. 14. Staff Impact and Transformation — Watching patients improve has a lasting impact on the staff and the culture of care. 15. Changing ICU Culture — Creating an awake and walking ICU demands a mindset shift and persistent leadership. 16. Making It the New Normal — What was once considered extraordinary can become standard with the right support and structure. 17. The Ripple Effect — Positive change in one unit can influence an entire hospital—and beyond.Episode Timestamps01:00 — Podcast Reflections on Lifespan and Healthcare 04:59 — Living Well: Do's vs. Don'ts 08:33 — Avoid Junk, Embrace Healthy Eating 11:51 — Hormones, Dieting, and Healthy Habits 16:45 — Dangers of Ultra-Processed Foods 18:56 — Prioritize Sleep: Limit Bedroom Screens 23:43 — Breath Work and CBT for Anxiety 27:26 — Optimal Health: Focus on Don'ts 28:38 — Alcohol and Substance Use Dangers 31:43 — Reflections on Healthier LivingDISCLAMER >>>>>>    The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

Unemployment is one of the most disorienting, painful seasons a person can face—yet the church often overlooks it. In this episode, Tim Ahlman sits down with Dale Kreienkamp, author of "How Long, Lord, How Long?", to talk about the emotional and spiritual toll of losing a job, why many believers suffer in silence, and how congregations can be a lifeline in these moments.Dale shares his own unexpected job loss stories, the lies we believe during unemployment, and practical ways pastors and church members can walk alongside those in transition. This isn't just about finding the next job—it's about restoring dignity, hope, and trust in God's provision.Whether you've been through job loss yourself or want to better care for others in your church, this conversation will open your eyes to a ministry opportunity hiding in plain sight.Support the showWatch Us On Youtube!

In this episode, I'm joined by Michele, a 52-year-old teacher and grandmother from Melbourne, who has achieved an incredible 16 kg weight loss transformation with the 3 Week Body Reset and Health with Bec Tribe! Michele's story is particularly powerful for women navigating health challenges like insulin resistance and joint pain and stubborn weight. After entering early menopause at just 35 following a hysterectomy, Michele struggled with weight gain and health issues for 17 years. At her heaviest weight, she was on medication for insulin resistance and unable to walk for more than 15 minutes, she felt like she'd given up hope, until she discovered my program and everything changed. Her timeline is remarkable: Michele lost over 5 kg in her first 3 weeks on the 3 Week Body Reset, then 8 kg within the first 2 months. She reached her goal of losing 16 kg by month 5, and has successfully maintained that loss for 8 months. Michele opens up about: Her surprise early menopause and her 8-month fight for answers Gaining 10 kg in a year without changing her diet or exercise Losing 5 kg, getting instant energy and confidence boosts on the 3 Week Body Reset How eliminating sugar and gluten helped her lose weight and reduce inflammation Coming off insulin resistance meds Her dramatic reduction in arthritis pain – she now walks 30–40 mins pain-free Her two game-changing habits to staying on track: motivational phone reminders and pantry prep How she's able to still eat cake and drink wine - and still lost 16 kgs (and continues to keep the weight off!)  How she's finally putting herself first, and inspiring words to help you do the same Michele's journey proves that even after 17 years of menopause struggles and hormonal shifts it's absolutely possible to transform your health and feel amazing, even in your 50s. Her story is living proof that when you address the root causes like inflammation from sugar and gluten, the results can be life-changing. This episode is packed with practical strategies and incredible inspiration for any woman who thinks lasting change isn't possible at their age or stage of life!
