We're living in a stressed-out world.

According to a poll from the American Psychological Association more than a quarter of U.S. adults say they're so stressed they can't function. But it's not just adults. Teenagers and children are also experiencing the negative effects of stress. Blending brain science, biblical truth, and best practices, Stress Less provides hope and healing. From his PhD research, pastor Charles Stone presents nine actionable insights for those battling stress or who have friends or family with fear and anxiety. Stone writes about biblical characters who successfully and unsuccessfully navigated stress and shares how he's responded to the stresses in his life, including a cancer diagnoses, heart issue, pre-diabetes diagnosis, and depression.

Stone answers the questions: What is stress? What does stress do to the body and brain? How do we build resistance to stress? He shows how changes in thinking, feeling, sleep, spiritual practices, and relationships can help us thrive through life's stresses. Readers learn how gratitude and soaking your soul in Jesus can cultivate a life of greater well-being and joy. While we can't eliminate the stressors of life, we can learn to navigate them with courage and grace. This timely resource is a practical guide for anyone who feels the creep of stress, who desires freedom and peace, and who wants to Stress Less.
