Brain Games
The human brain is a beautiful and intentional gift—uniquely designed by God and unlike anything else in creation. And yet, in today’s world, we’re seeing a heartbreaking rise in memory loss, developmental disorders, and neurological struggles—affecting everyone from the very young to the very old. But it doesn’t have to stay that way.
At this month’s Teach 'n Preach, we’ll explore how to support the brain through every season of life. Whether it’s understanding brain development in children, navigating the shifts that happen during menopause, or guarding against Alzheimer’s and dementia, you’ll discover that there are practical, powerful ways to bolster your brain at every stage. We'll talk about spectrum and neurodivergence, how toxins like microplastics and heavy metals impact cognitive function, and what brain fog is really telling you. You’ll learn about the role of nutrition—especially healthy fats—in supporting memory, attention, and focus, as well as the deep connection between your gut and your brain. And of course, we’ll highlight why restful sleep is one of the most healing things you can give your brain.
No matter where you are on the journey, there are steps you can take to protect and strengthen this amazing organ. Come be encouraged, equipped, and reminded that your brain was made with purpose—and that healing and clarity are possible.

Nutrition 102: Fueling the Body God Gave You
Your body is a masterpiece—fearfully and wonderfully made by God, designed to heal, grow, and thrive when given the right support. But in a world full of fad diets, toxic food culture, and overwhelming nutrition advice, it’s easy to feel confused, defeated, or stuck in survival mode.
At this month’s Teach ’n Preach, we’re going deeper than the basics. “Nutrition 102: Fueling the Body God Gave You” is about reclaiming the purpose of food as fuel—not punishment, not perfection. We’ll unpack the power of a healthy mindset, the dangers of diet myths, and why your goals—whether it’s fat loss, muscle gain, hormone balance, or better energy—deserve a personalized and grace-filled approach.
Together, we’ll explore what body composition really means, how to eat for your specific needs, and how to break free from all-or-nothing thinking. You’ll learn how to read labels without fear, discover the value of whole-food swaps and nourishing brands, and walk away with real tools for meal planning and prep that work whether you’re cooking for one or feeding a family.
Most importantly, you’ll be reminded that your body is not a project—it’s a temple. Come be equipped to fuel it with intention, encouraged to ditch shame for grace, and inspired to move forward—one meal, one step, one day at a time.

Rethinking Cancer: A Hope-Filled, Holistic Approach
Cancer is one of the most feared words in healthcare. But what if the conversation around cancer didn’t have to begin with fear? This month, we’re diving deep into what cancer actually is, why we're seeing it on the rise, and how to pursue a lifestyle of prevention and healing—rooted in faith, not fear.
At this powerful evening session, we’ll explore common myths about cancer, holistic treatment options, alternative screening methods, and how our environment, lifestyle, and mindset all play a role. Whether you have a family history of cancer, are navigating a diagnosis, or simply want to be informed and proactive, you’ll leave feeling encouraged and equipped. Plus, we’ll hear a personal story of healing from our own community.
Come discover a better way to approach the conversation around cancer—one that honors the body’s ability to heal, brings clarity to confusing topics, and empowers you to take action for yourself and those you love.

Teach n' Preach: Don't Guess, Test!
Is it just expensive pee or a healthier me? Do you know if your supplements are truly helping? Supplements are essential for optimal health and function, but not all are created equal. Quality matters! Poor absorption and unnecessary supplements can waste money and miss key nutrients. Testing takes the guesswork out, ensuring you get exactly what your body needs. Unlike meds, supplements support your body’s natural function—not force it. Learn how to choose high-quality supplements and address nutrient deficiencies with precision!
