Stress Point Thriving Through Your Twenties in a Decade of Drama is a book by Sarah Francis Martin. I choose to read this book when the deadline at work was stressing me out to the extreme, as well as some other things in my life as well. Unfortunately for me, this book was not what I needed. (A little bit too reliant on the Bible for me) So I skipped the majority of the Bible related items to see if I could get anything out of it at face value.
However, this book may be what you need. The book has an area for a journal at the end of each chapter which asks you questions about your own life based on the situations you just read in the chapter. I do like when books have things like this because it makes it a lot easier to put things into perspective with my own life.
Then each chapter also has “Worshiping at the Throne of the King”, with more journal questions based on items that it instructs you to read in the Bible. The next part is “Waiting at the Throne of the King” and a 3rd area of Journal questions, again based on Bible readings. Finally – “Finding Focus in Him Alone” and another journal area. Then we have “Stress diverted” which includes prayer prompts for your journal.
