Session One: Whispers of Relief
Hearing and discerning God’s voice is the most important part of our prayer and fellowship with God, especially when it comes to dealing with the overwhelming stress that life brings. Most Christians long to hear God’s voice thundering through the air with the answers to their problems and the stress relief they long for. However, God’s voice is more like a gentle whisper, requiring an intimate relationship in order to hear it. You will be reminded of how God speaks intimately and personally, how He is the answer to our stress, and how to be more aware of His voice as you:
• Recognize how to hear God’s voice in the unique ways He chooses to speak
• Embrace the importance of prayer and fellowship with God
• Discover the things that may be causing a disconnect between you and God
• Learn how to apply God’s stress-less biblical principles to the top 5 stressors of today
Session Two: Staying Afloat In A Sea of Stress
Millions of women feel overwhelmed in life as a result of being bombarded with relentless stress from everyday life, and sometimes many women feel like jumping overboard. Sadly, most of us are looking for stress relief in the all the wrong places, and the worldly relief we may find is only a temporary band-aid. Through this empowering session, you will experience a stress-makeover in heart, mind and soul as you
• Understand the negative consequences of ignoring stress
• Recognize the physical and spiritual benefits of looking to God for stress relief
• Learn to tap into the power and presence of God to regain a life of peace
• Discover how to live a life of joy despite your circumstances through learning that Jesus dealt with stress and understands what we are going through
Session Three: Jumping Overboard in Faith
God often calls us to do things that seem beyond our comfort zone or capabilities, possibly causing us to hesitate in our obedience and question our calling. This session will help you realize that God has been equipping you throughout your lifetime for the purpose He destined just for you. You will be motivated to put your stress and fears aside, and embrace your passion for Christ while developing a new perspective on how God has called you to serve. This session will empower you to go overboard in your faith, as you:
• Understand how to cultivate a true servants heart
• Replace the fear of failure with God inspired confidence and enthusiasm for purpose
• Recognize how procrastination results in missing God’s best
• Build your desire to faithfully and passionately seek God’s will for your life
Session Four: Embracing The Stressed-Less Life
The Bible is packed with tips for finding stress relief in today’s modern chaotic world, if only we seek them out. This session reviews the top five stressors of our nation today (money, economy, marriage, parenting, and work) and applies biblical principles for handling those stressors in positive ways. This session will encourage women to take the information that have learned about listening for God in today’s noisy world, keeping our focused on Christ, and being willing to trust God in all circumstances, and help them apply His truths to their own personal lives. Women will leave this session with:
• A fresh perspective on how God’s Word applies to every aspect of our lives
• A renewed desire to make Christ a priority in their life
• Motivated to surrender their stress to Christ, and embrace a less stressed life
