The US Food and Drug Administration approved Rasonque (daraxonrasib) for patients suffering from advanced pancreatic cancer. [^1]

Acting FDA Commissioner Kyle Diamantras stated that the approval provides a critical new option for patients facing an extraordinarily difficult and historically hard-to-treat cancer. [^2]

Patients who choose to take Rasonque have been found to live an average of 13.2 months, while those choosing chemotherapy only live for an average of about 6.7 months. [^3]

Tommy Brown teaches four rhythms for a quiet life: loving deeply, living quietly, minding your own affairs, and working with your hands. [^4]

Tommy Brown's book 'The Speed of the Soul' will officially release in October 2025 and can be preordered. [^5]

Country Music icon Dolly Parton reportedly died from cancer, though the specific type of cancer has not been specified. [^6]

Brown attributes most people's inability to mind their own affairs to either enjoyment of getting entangled in others' affairs or never learning to invite God into their own affairs. [^7]

Brown connects these rhythms to 1 Thessalonians 4:9-12 and uses a 'wisdom circle' illustration representing a boundary that protects from distractions. [^8]
