Sorrow looks back. Worry
looks around. Faith looks up.
– Ralph Waldo Emerson
Jodi Carlisle delivers is professional, compassionate narration
in the audio version of Overload.
In Overload, Joyce Meyer addresses stress and how
it affects us as Christians. First, she reminds us that Jesus
knew the pressures of stress, but he never stopped marching
toward the cross. This is a powerful statement and shines
a different light on our daily pressures, but it doesn’t
make them go away. Joyce wants to help us recognize the triggers
of stress and teach us how to avoid feeling overloaded. Joyce
addresses the spirit, mental and physical reactions to stress,
and how destressing can not only improve our lives but the
lives of those around us. She covers various subjects that
cause stress (medical, financial, etc.), how stress affects
us (mentally, physically) and the spiritual treatment to overcome
it (prayer, positive words, and scripture). Joyce uses stories,
personal examples and scriptures to guide us. She ends each
section with chapter insights under “Did You Know?”
and chapter recaps under “Things to Remember”.
She also includes vital thoughts in small boxes throughout
each chapter. Joyce’s research on stress is so thorough
that it’s impossible for you to walk away from this
teaching unchanged. I recommend Overload to anyone
and everyone suffering the effects of stress.
I recommend
pairing Overload with Meyer's Worry Free Living.
