Today author Tracy Wainwright shares about living a stress-free life. Leave a comment to enter a random drawing for a copy of her Bible Study.
Did the holidays stress you out? I hope not, but we all know stress comes in life, even with good events. That’s what led me to write the Living Stress Free Bible Study. Being nonfiction, this book had a very different writing process than does writing my fiction books. While I research small items here and there, writing a Bible study took hours and hours of pouring over the Bible and praying over the content. The outline began as a speech I gave at a women’s conference. I took those basic ideas and principles and expounded on them, adding in discussion questions and blanks to fill in to help readers interact with the text and take it to heart.
Some people may look at this 4-week Bible study and think it can’t have much to it, but I promise you it does! Plus, the study doesn’t have to be limited to four weeks. Since there’s multiple days of homework, the study could be completed at a slower pace, especially if someone wanted to meet with others to discuss the lessons. Either way, the timing is nothing to stress about! And that’s the point, after all.

A Peek inside...
Week 1
Evaluating & Surrendering
Section 1
Stress is a part of life. Have you noticed that? Everyone seems stressed these days. In a world where we have access to just about any information we want and have conveniences and helps to do our work in life more than any other time in history, we are more stressed than ever.
I haven’t taken any polls or researched the statistics to come to these conclusions, but simply observed life. Both my life and the lives of others.
A brief online search on “how to eliminate stress” brings up over 8,000,000 results. Yes, that’s 8 million! Obviously people are looking for ways to eliminate stress.
Under the results are topics like “How to Reduce Stress,” “Stress Management,” “Ways to Relieve Stress,” and “Natural Ways to Fight Stress.” I’m sure all of these websites have some great tips, tricks, and tools, but I didn’t go read them all. First, I didn’t want to stress myself out with an overload of information. Second, I really want this book to have something new. This is to be completely and totally biblically grounded and led by the Spirit.
By the way, a brief search on Amazon also shows the great hunger people have for dealing with stress. A search in books for “stress” provided over 58,000 results, with almost 5,000 in Religion and Spirituality.
There are a lot of resources out there! So why should you pick this one?
Because it doesn’t just offer pat answers or strategies. It offers insight to biblical wisdom that will radically change your life.
While we can do lots of things in this world to eliminate, alleviate, and handle stress better, God and His Word always offer wisdom that goes beyond what we can come up with or implement ourselves. It also lends to having external and eternal impacts, instead of just an internal impact most resources offer.
The goal is not to just offer you a way to live stress-free, but how to live in abundant peace – the complete opposite of living stressed.
