One day, a man in his late forty's asked me what I thought about the results of his prostate specific antigen test (PSA). With a broad smile, he told me that the results were within normal range.

Looking at his smile, I could tell he felt good about having the test. I didn’t want to say anything that could spoil the joy. But, I felt obligated to make him aware of the usefulness of the PSA test over time.

Searching for just the right words, I told him. “Congratulation on taking the test! It’s a big step toward protecting your health and I’m delighted to hear that the results are within normal range. But it’s important to have the PSA test annually.” I went on to explain that even a normal PSA level can be an indication of prostate cancer. It's important to look at how the PSA changes over time.

In this episode of Minding the Temple Podcast, I go deep into explaining the PSA and how to use the test for screening, monitoring an established diagnosis, or determining if more is needed.

Recently a friend had a prostate biopsy. The biopsy was done through the sc***um and not the re**um. This approach was new to me and probably to some of you. So, let's take a look at current options for the evaluation of prostate lesions.

Let's go!
Prostate Biopsy 101: What You Need to Know About Old & New Techniques

If your doctor suspects prostate cancer, the only way to confirm the diagnosis is through a prostate biopsy—a procedure to take small tissue samples for testing.

The Traditional Method: Transre**al Ultrasound-Guided Biopsy (TRUS)

How it works: A small ultrasound probe is inserted into the re**um to guide a needle that collects samples from the prostate.

Benefits: Quick (about 10–15 minutes) and widely available.

Shortcomings: Slightly higher risk of infection since the needle passes through re**al tissue, and may miss cancer in certain areas of the prostate.

The Newer Method: Transperineal Biopsy

How it works: The needle enters through the skin between the sc***um and re**um (the perineum) using ultrasound or MRI guidance.

Benefits: Lower infection risk, better access to hard-to-reach areas of the prostate, and potentially more accurate detection.

Shortcomings: May require local or general anesthesia and can take a bit longer.

Advanced Option: MRI-Guided Biopsy (or MRI/Ultrasound Fusion Biopsy)

How it works: An MRI scan first identifies suspicious areas in the prostate. During the biopsy, MRI images (or MRI combined with ultrasound) guide the needle directly to those areas.

Benefits: Higher accuracy in targeting suspicious spots, reduces the chance of missing aggressive cancers, and may require fewer samples.

Shortcomings: More expensive, not available everywhere, and may take longer than standard approaches.

I miss your mom too. When I lost my mobility, a friend, Dr Victoria Grady , sent me a copy of your mom’s book on surviving liver cancer and healing through prayer. For nearly three years almost every night I’ve listened to April’s recording of mama Dodie reading healing scriptures. I am healing although health professional said I wouldn’t. I’m so thankful Mama Dodie took the time to share her testimony. May she dance with God forever.

It is with a heavy heart that Victoria and I, along with our family, announce the passing of our cherished mother and grandmother, Dolores “Dodie” Osteen. She was the beloved matriarch of Lakewood Church, an inspiration to millions of people around the world, and a faithful servant of God. Known as ‘Mama Dodie’ to the entire Lakewood family, together, we celebrate her amazing life and lasting legacy. She passed of natural causes, peacefully at her home. She was 91 years old.

Lowering the risk for heart attacks is one reason we continue to offer health dducation about sugar and how sugar impacts the body.

This summer’s extreme heat isn’t just uncomfortable—it can be dangerous. When your body overheats, it works overtime to keep you cool. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can lead to serious health risks, including:
• Heat exhaustion – fatigue, dizziness, and nausea
• Heatstroke – a medical emergency
• Dehydration – losing more fluids than you replace
• Heat cramps – painful spasms
• Worsening of chronic conditions

Heat can intensify heart, kidney, and breathing problems
But you can stay safe and strong.
