Book Review: Stress Point, by Sarah Francis Martin


There’s nothing like starting out on a 2,000 mile road trip, getting 200 miles in, and realizing there’s a gas-shortage that spans three states due to storms.

My boy and I… we’re not great planners.

Which results in a lot of stress. Which is why I need books like Sarah Martin’s Stress Point. And if you’re anything like me…

Sarah F. Martin
In Stress Point, my new friend (Really! Sarah lives in the same town as I do!) outlines different “stress points” young women face. Some stresses are self-inflicted, some are just a part of life in your twenties.

I particularly loved the self-image chapter, because Sarah so aptly describes her own walk through an eating disorder. She is so real. And self-image is definitely my biggest battle! You are going to relate to every word that comes out of her mouth. (Er… fingers!)

So if you find yourself overwhelmed by different life-stresses, this book might just be for you.

And it’s a two-fer! When you buy the book now, you can jump into the LIVE Stress Point study Sarah is also leading on her blog this summer.

You can also WIN a copy of the book Sarah gave to me! Just leave a reply to this post and I will randomly choose one winner (announced August 4th) to receive the grand prize!! (Thanks for providing this, Sarah!)

That definitely sounds like a book we should all read. I get stressed out far too easily. I know God's in control, though, and that's what matters.
