The stress of a complex, uncertain, fast-paced world inevitably takes its toll. Right? Wrong. This myth about stress is, according to the author, as incorrect as it is widespread. The strains of life do not have to make us casualties. Incorrect definitions, he contends, have made the prevention of stress seem impossible thus, many people mistakenly emphasize stress intervention. But prevention is the key. It begins with a correct perspective on life, circumstances and who we are in relation to God. Ecker also helps us understand how unwanted stress affects our relationships at home & at work giving sound counsel on how we can avoid problems.
