I might, as I have probably done in other parts of this series, focus on the ways in which God has woven this into the earth, and to some extent, those mechanisms will....

No man has more friends than when his star is in ascendance, when his hand is on the scepter, when his paycheck is freshly cashed. A ‘fair-weather friend’ is a common sight. The halls of power....

When we hit our rock bottom, we will do anything except admit that we’re to blame. This talent we inherited from Adam, and this talent we pass along to our children. Everybody can be to blame, except....

Our children carry the effects of our stress into their bodies as we prepare them for the world.  A Yale study suggests that better stress management can lower our children’s risk of obesity and its poor health outcomes.  As parents, we strive for our children to have a better life than we have lived, whether in terms of health and wealth, or peace and joy.  Striving for our own well-being and theirs can be stressful in our crazy world.  This study shows that stress and how w

The road to hell, they say, is paved with good intentions. It’s a dangerous thing to desire without knowing what we desire, a recipe for folly, destruction, and disaster. Yet we’re all too prone to the error. We’re all too prone....

Mold toxicity receives little attention from conventional medicine, whether you’re going through medical school, visiting a primary care provider, or running to a specialist. As a result, not only is this common condition ignored, but many myths have grown up around it.  Such myths are propagated because no one takes the time to read the actual studies from clinical medicine or the agricultural world.  Taking time to read this blog or the article it is based on will dispel ma

Above all else, men desire to be rulers of themselves. This statement holds for the righteous and the wicked- except that these two understand rulership in very different ways. The righteous man would rule....

As anyone caring for children with autism would tell you, there are many forms and triggers for this distressingly common condition. Today’s focus article used computer modeling creatively in order to tease out four main subtypes of autism which might allow researchers to better identify both predisposing factors (like genetics) and external contributors to the condition. Without a relevant organization of the problem, pinpointing the genetics that predispose these children t

The Unseen Consequences of COVID While few of us want to think about COVID again, recent research suggests it may be stealing more from us than just energy and daily function. Long COVID might be weakening our immune defenses, creating openings for new infections or reactivating latent infections. Many of us have wondered why we seem to be getting sick more often than before having COVID. This concern is shared by those who had COVID and those who received the preventive mRNA

He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord. [ Proverbs 18:22 ]   The two great passions of mankind are marriage and death. In ‘marriage’ is gathered not merely itself but family, sex, and all relationship with our fellow man, all authority and cooperation, the smallest thing which society is an outworking of; in ‘death’ is gathered not only itself but sin, violence, and all relationship with God, in relationship to whom all righteousness and unrigh

While the conventional world of medicine continue to deny the effects of mold toxins on our human health, articles like today’s remind us that conventional medicine is not always reading the research. Obafemi et al lays out the details of what we know about fumonisin B1 neurotoxicity with references to multiple studies and explanations of mechanisms. Despite such solid proof, your average medical provider in the system will dismiss many patients’ symptoms and look for any ex

For many years now, both medical professionals and parents of children diagnosed with ADHD have assumed that the primary mechanism of action for most ADHD medications are its effects in the brain areas responsible for attention.  Now a study suggests that the medications work in other parts of the brain, those involved with reward and wakefulness.  This new information not only proves that science is rarely settled, but that we need to reexamine how we treat ADHD. Researchers

The Importance of Thyroid Health During Pregnancy In functional medicine, we often describe our bodies as interconnected systems, much like a web. This interconnectedness becomes even more significant during pregnancy. The health of a mother directly influences her developing baby. Whether through natural hormones or harmful toxins, a mother’s health can leave lasting effects on her child, extending into adulthood. Recent research highlights a concerning link between uncontro

Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruits. [ Proverbs 18:21 ]   James 2 is the standard passage for pressing home the power and danger of the tongue, but God didn’t wait till the New Testament’s latter half to give us that knowledge. In the Garden, God’s tongue brought life and the potential of death (Gen. 2:17; Rom. 6:23, 7:7-10). In the Garden, Adam ordered the world with his tongue (Gen. 2:19). Then, in the Garden Adam and Eve
