5.0 out of 5 stars Finally!, May 12, 2004

By 

Dale W. Hill (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: God's Stress Management Plan (Paperback)

Finally a realistic book about stress with biblical principles on how to manage it! As Christians, we are often in denial about stress because we think we are not walking in faith if we have stress. I am so grateful with how Dr. Mendes first explains what stress is, then how to assess the stress in our lives, and finally how to manage it. The ten principles she recommends to avoid, reduce, or manage stress are simple yet profound, and very doable. Thank you Dr. Mendes! Christian or not, anyone can benefit from this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars This Book Is A Must Have..., March 29, 2004

By 

Theresa Key (CA , USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: God's Stress Management Plan (Paperback)

God's Stress Management Plan (GSMP) is a must have for those seeking freedom from the chains of stress, anxiety and depression. For both Christians and the not-so-Christian, this book provides a step-by-step plan for personal development and self help.

The book is a brilliant blend of biblical principles, psychotherapy and "good old common sense". Dr. Mendes guides the reader through an often dark and murky subject matter - towards a bright & hopeful future. Though the book is only 146 pages, each chapter contains very powerful tools, to be used again and again. God's Stress Management Plan clearly equips the reader for a lifetime. Get one for your self-give one to those you love.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must read, January 23, 2007

By 

SC "SC" (Altadena, CA.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: God's Stress Management Plan (Paperback)

God's Stress Management is a must read for all Christians and anyone trying to make sense of life and its challenges. The book reminded me that a a get out of life's trouble free card does not come with faith. Indeed when we choose to follow the right path, we face more challenges. Everyone interested in improving their spiritual well-being should read this book.
