Session 6: Conquering Stress Before It Conquers You

Objectives:

1. To view stress in your life as a symptom of a deeper problem

2. To respond biblicall to stress in your life.

3. to know God's objective for you is Christlike character.

Doug Sherman lays out the acrostic T-R-I-A-L-S

Thank God for what you have, rather than complain about what you lack!

Remember God's Previous Faithfulness To You.

Implore God for his help today, and keep your focus on one day at a time.

Accept God's right to direct the events of your life.

Leave the future to God.

Seek Christlike character more than comfort and convenience.

The lesson ends with "when comfort and convenience matter most..." vs. " when have a Christlike character matters most..."

To that end - don't forget about the forgotten God.
