Plus, a practical call to stop merely trying and start training.

What happens when the work God calls you to begins to face resistance? In Nehemiah 4, the rebuilding of Jerusalem's wall is met with mockery, threats, and fear. Yet instead of stopping the work, Nehemiah leads the people with courage, prayer, and perseverance. The call is not to retreat, but to remember who God is and continue the work He has given us.
In a world marked by brokenness, setbacks, and uncertainty, the book of Nehemiah offers a powerful roadmap for restoration.

In this episode of War Docs, we speak with retired Army Colonel Dr. Robert Mabry, a figure whose career trajectory from an 18 Delta Special Forces medic to a senior physician-leader has shaped the face of modern military medicine. Dr. Mabry recounts his harrowing experience during the Battle of Mogadishu, where he provided care for 15 hours under intense fire. He reflects on how those "blood-written" lessons exposed the flaws of applying civilian EMS standards to the battlefield, eventually leading to his involvement as a founding member of the Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC). The conversation moves from the tactical to the systemic, as Dr.Mabry discusses his pivotal role in upgrading Army flight medics to critical care paramedics and his advocacy for the "Mission Zero Act," which integrates military surgical teams into civilian trauma centers to maintain clinical readiness during the interwar period. Dr. Mabry also addresses the looming challenges of Large-Scale Combat Operations (LSCO). He warns that the "Golden Hour" luxury enjoyed in Iraq and Afghanistan will likely vanish in future peer-on-peer conflicts due to the lack of air superiority and the threat of mass casualties from advanced weaponry. To prepare, he proposes a radical overhaul of the medical career pathway, advocating for a "Battlefield Medical Specialist" track that allows medics to advance into high-level operational roles without losing their tactical expertise. By embedding military teams into a nationalized mesh network of civilian hospitals, Mabry envisions a "Team America" approach that ensures the military is never again forced to relearn life-saving lessons at the start of a new conflict. This episode is a masterclass in operational medicine, leadership, and the persistent need for innovation within the military health system bureaucracy. Chapters (00:00-01:30) Introduction to Retired Colonel Dr. Robert Mabry (01:30-05:37) From Small-Town Oklahoma to Army Ranger (05:37-10:51) The Path to Special Forces Medic and 18 Delta Training (10:51-18:54) 15 Hours Under Fire: The Battle of Mogadishu (18:54-25:03) Transitioning from NCO to Physician at USUHS (25:03-31:15) Founding TCCC and the Joint Trauma System (31:15-39:54) Revolutionizing Flight Medic Training and Evidence-Based Reform (39:54-48:00) Prolonged Field Care and the Reality of Future Conflict (LSCO) (48:00-56:17) Mission Zero and Embedding Military Teams in Civilian Centers (56:17-1:03:40) Designing the Future Battlefield Medical Specialist Career Track (1:03:40-1:05:42) Legacy and Closing Remarks Chapter Summaries (00:00-01:30) Introduction to Retired Colonel Dr. Robert Mabry Host Dr. Doug Soderdahl introduces Dr. Robert Mabry, highlighting his journey from the Battle of Mogadishu to his role as a founding member of the Committee on TCCC. The introduction sets the stage for a discussion on overhauling military medical training and preparing for future high-casualty conflicts. (01:30-05:37) From Small-Town Oklahoma to Army Ranger Dr. Mabry shares his early motivations for enlisting, citing a family tradition of military service and a desire to escape his small town. He explains how a recruiter's pitch led him to the Army over the Marine Corps, eventually landing him in the newly formed 3rd Ranger Battalion. (05:37-10:51) The Path to Special Forces Medic and 18 Delta Training Inspired by a mentor, Mabry pursued the rigorous Special Forces Medic (18 Delta) pathway, known for its high attrition rate and intense training. He discusses the 1.5-year pipeline and how his early marriage provided the stability needed to succeed in the academically and physically demanding course. (10:51-18:54) 15 Hours Under Fire: The Battle of Mogadishu Mabry provides a first-hand account of the "Black Hawk Down" mission, detailing the chaos of the crash site and the makeshift bunker he used to treat casualties overnight. He reflects on the realization that contemporary medical protocols, like C-spine immobilization under fire, were dangerously ill-suited for combat. (18:54-25:03) Transitioning from NCO to Physician at USUHS Inspired by clinical encounters as a medic, Mabry discusses the arduous process of completing medical school prerequisites while on active duty, including retaking organic chemistry after returning from Somalia. He details his experience at USUHS, balancing family life with the challenges of the basic science curriculum. (25:03-31:15) Founding TCCC and the Joint Trauma System Mabry explains the "grassroots" origins of the Committee on Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) and the later development of the Joint Trauma System (JTS). He critiques the military's initial lack of a data-driven trauma system and the years it took to improve survivability during the Global War on Terror. (31:15-39:54) Revolutionizing Flight Medic Training and Evidence-Based Reform Mabry recounts the struggle to convince the Army to upgrade flight medics from EMT-Basics to Critical Care Paramedics. He highlights a landmark study that proved a 15% improvement in survival for the most critically injured patients when treated by higher-trained providers. (39:54-48:00) Prolonged Field Care and the Reality of Future Conflict (LSCO) Drawing from experiences on the Afghan-Pakistan border, Mabry demystifies prolonged field care as essential nursing care. He warns that future conflicts (LSCO) will lack air superiority, requiring medics to manage mass casualties at the point of injury for days rather than hours. (48:00-56:17) Mission Zero and Embedding Military Teams in Civilian Centers Mabry advocates for a nationalized "Team America" strategy to embed military surgical teams in busy civilian level-one trauma centers. He discusses his work on the Mission Zero Act to ensure military providers maintain their trauma skills during periods of peace. (56:17-1:03:40) Designing the Future Battlefield Medical Specialist Career Track Mabry proposes a new career pathway for operational medicine that allows experienced medics to transition into specialized Physician Assistant roles. This track would keep tactical expertise in the field and provide a long-term career for those dedicated to battlefield care. (1:03:40-1:05:42) Legacy and Closing Remarks In the final segment, Mabry reflects on his legacy, hoping his work inspires future medical leaders to have the courage to innovate. The episode concludes with a tribute to his contributions to saving lives on and off the battlefield. Take Home Messages Combat Medicine Requires Tactical Adaptation: Medical protocols designed for civilian settings, such as C-spine immobilization or the avoidance of tourniquets, are often counterproductive in high-threat environments. True innovation in combat casualty care comes from acknowledging that the tactical situation dictates the medical intervention, a realization that led to the birth of TCCC. Data Drives Survival in Trauma Systems: The military health system cannot rely on luck or anecdotal evidence to improve clinical outcomes. Establishing a robust trauma registry and a continuous quality improvement process, as seen with the Joint Trauma System, is essential to bending the survival curve and preventing the repetition of past mistakes. Advanced Training is Non-Negotiable for Flight Medics: Moving from an "evacuation only" mindset to a "critical care in the air" model significantly improves survival rates for the most severely injured. Investing in high-level paramedic and nursing certification for flight crews ensures that the aircraft serves as a mobile ICU rather than just a transport vehicle. Preparing for Large-Scale Combat Requires Triage Mastery: In future peer-on-peer conflicts where medical evacuation may be delayed for days, military providers must be trained to manage expecting casualties and perform complex triage. This requires a shift in focus toward prolonged field care and the psychological readiness to make difficult resource-allocation decisions. Civilian-Military Integration is Essential for Readiness: To maintain the surgical skills necessary for war, military teams must be permanently embedded in high-volume civilian trauma centers. A nationalized strategy like the Mission Zero Act ensures that the nation's medical assets are integrated and ready to handle a sudden surge of casualties in a "Team America" approach.

What is the goal of the mission? In Psalm 84, we are reminded that the mission of Jesus isn't just what we do—it's what we're invited into: the presence of God Himself. In a loud, busy, distracted world, God invites His people to rediscover the joy, strength, belonging, and hope found simply in being with Him—together.
Comedian Trent Mabry (album It's Good to Be Here) and I go over the 1977 syndicated special featuring Anson and his guests Lou Rawls, Tanya Tucker, The 5th Dimension, Marty Allen, and Skiles and Henderson
Drs. Mabry and Lee sit down with Jennifer Wilson, Account Manager for Blood Assurance in Cookeville, in honor of National Blood Donor Month. Jennifer explains her role with the local nonprofit, which serves as the sole blood provider for Cookeville Regional Medical Center, and highlights why blood donations are so critical to patients across the Upper Cumberland. She discusses seasonal blood shortages, the types of patients who rely most on donations, and how a single donation can save up to three lives. The conversation also walks listeners through the donation process—from eligibility and preparation to mobile blood drives—while busting common myths and sharing how local high school donors play a vital role in keeping the community's blood supply strong.

The mission of the church isn't optional or distant—it's urgent and right in front of us. In the final message of The Mission series, we look at Jesus' words in John 4 as he calls his disciples to lift their eyes and see that “the fields are white for harvest.” We, the church, are also called to join the harvest and faithfully step into what God is already doing right now.
What does it mean to be sent by Jesus with the gospel and the Holy Spirit? In John 20, Pastor Adam Mabry shows that mission doesn't begin with pressure or performance, but with peace, purpose, people, and the power of the Spirit. As Jesus sends his disciples just as the Father sent him, we too are sent with God's pleasure, shaped by God's purpose, surrounded by God's people, and empowered by God's Spirit.
Founded by Michael Mabry and John Rothenberger nearly five years ago, One Play Development “saw the brokenness in the youth sports space and an opportunity to serve families and players in a really impactful way.”They say transformational coaching is at the heart of everything they do and they want to help people get to where they want to be. So, in order to achieve that goal, they tapped former Gonzaga (D.C.) head coach Casey O'Neill, Director of Mental Performance Alec Wortman and Marquette head coach Andrew Stimmel.Over the past year, One Play has taken a significant step forward, welcoming former Virginia assistant Kip Turner, former Rutgers assistant Eric Seremet, former High Point assistant Pat Tracy, former Hampton head coach Chazz Woodson, former Denver assistant Trevor Tierney, former Virginia Tech and William & Mary Head Coach Brooke Ireland, current PLL Whipsnakes midfielder Roman Puglise and development specialists Mugs Mickum and Dr. Abby Latona.To learn more about what One Play is, Mabry, O'Neill, Stimmel and Turner join the IL Podcast to discuss.
At the center of God's mission stands the cross. In John 12, Jesus reveals that his suffering, death, and exaltation are not a detour from God's plan, but the very means by which God's love and holiness meet. In this sermon, we see how the cross glorifies God, defeats Satan, judges sin, and draws the world to Jesus—calling us to see the cross not as tragedy, but as the centerpiece of God's saving mission.
Do you ever wonder what cards other people have, how they use them, and exactly how many points they're earning each year? I'll be honest—I'm nosy when it comes to other people's points, and I love getting a peek inside someone else's points earning strategies. In this first part of a two-part year-in-review series, I've invited Dr. Andrea Mabry back to the show to break down everything that shaped our points earning in 2025. This has become one of my favorite Point Me to First Class traditions, and this year marks the third installment of this annual series. We're pulling back the curtain on the credit cards we opened, the unexpected opportunities we seized, and the total number of points we earned across all our points ecosystems, from Chase and Amex to Capital One, Citi, and beyond. Andrea and I each share our total points earned for the year, then break those numbers down by transferable versus airline-specific currencies, welcome bonuses versus organic spend, and the earning methods that delivered the most value. We talk about why this was an unusually busy year for new card acquisitions, what happened when an entire points program collapsed overnight, and what's on our radar for 2026. Whether you're mapping out your own points strategy or just curious how two points enthusiasts approach earning at scale, this conversation offers real numbers, honest reflections, and the lessons we're taking into the new year.

Through the story of Simeon and Anna's encounter with the Christ child in the temple, we explore the four pillars of a hope that sustains us through every season. Learn why biblical hope isn't just a sunny disposition—it is rooted in God's Word, animated by his Spirit, perpetuated by his presence, and fulfilled by his provision.
In this sermon, we look at Mary and Joseph—two regular people caught up in a plan far bigger than themselves. Through their story of obedience, we discover how God's love for sinners transforms our palpable fear into courageous strength and why your own weakness is actually the perfect canvas for his grace.
Isaiah 7 shows us that God doesn't wait for life to settle before giving peace—he steps into the chaos with us. Instead of offering quick fixes, he gives us something better: Immanuel. This message is an invitation to stop scrambling, breathe, and receive the peace only God can give, and then bring that peace into the world around us.
As we begin our Advent series, we look at Isaiah 9 and Micah 5 where the prophets show us what God does in the darkest moments: He gives a promise. A Son. A King. A Light the darkness cannot overcome. We are invited to trust God's promises, turn toward his light, and hold onto real hope this season. Darkness doesn't get the last word—Jesus does.
As we conclude our journey through the Gospel of Matthew, Pastor Adam Mabry unpacks how the death and resurrection of Jesus fulfill every covenant promise God made throughout Scripture. From the Passover meal to the cross to the empty tomb, Jesus becomes the Lamb, the curse-bearer, and the risen King who launches new creation. This is the greatest moment in history—and it demands our response.
In Matthew 23–25, Jesus confronts his disciples with the truth about judgment, the end of the age, and the choice every person must make. Pastor Adam Mabry walks through Jesus' warnings, exposing our illusions of control and self-righteousness, and calling us to endurance, clarity, and wholehearted allegiance to Christ. The gospel isn't something to admire from a distance—it demands a response.
In Matthew 19–21, Jesus overturns what we think we need—achievement, power, and self-made goodness—and shows us what we truly need: Him. Following Jesus means releasing lesser loves to receive the only King who can save and satisfy.
