1
Kosti, stress is part of the human experience.
2
No way.
3
Living in a fallen world.
4
No way.
5
I don't believe it.
6
From external to internal, we all have unique pressure points that we deal with.
7
But how are we to think and view those pressure points, stress, biblically?
8
Okay.
9
First, I will agree with you.
10
Work, stress.
11
Life, stress.
12
Stress is part of life.
13
Part of life.
14
Get to feel the strain.
15
Amen.
16
I would encourage somebody, if they were going through this,
17
in a few ways.
18
I jotted some key principles here.
19
Remember who you actually work for.
20
So if you're going to deal with work stress,
21
you've got to get to the root of why you work,
22
what you work for.
23
For a Christian, Colossians 3.23, my favorite passage.
24
Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart,
25
or some translations, do your work heartily as working for the Lord, not for man.
26
So first of all, I'm going to acknowledge work stress,
27
but then I'm going to remember who do I work for?
28
Who's my actual employer?
29
Who's the boss of my life?
30
God.
31
In that, I want to take the temperature of a few things.
32
The three H's.
33
We've talked about this before.
34
I want to take the temperature of my heart.
35
I want to take the temperature of my home.
36
And I want to take a temperature read on my head.
37
And what I mean by that is clarity.
38
Are you getting foggy brained?
39
Are you losing perspective?
40
That's connected to the heart,
41
but it's also connected to the head.
42
Sometimes you just got to get out of your head
43
and go play a round of golf or go on a walk or go hike.
44
Or for you, go to like an escape room,
45
your favorite thing to do.
46
Problem solving, putting puzzles together.
47
Come on.
48
Okay.
49
My wife is a puzzle person.
50
Her and the kids, like a few of our kids,
51
they just love puzzles.
52
And then, you know, me and some of the other kids,
53
we want to just go like chop wood or break stuff.
54
Like everyone has, I got to go be active.
55
And those are different.
56
My wife loves hiking.
57
I mean, walks.
58
You can do that any day.
59
You don't need a vacation to do some of these things.
60
But it'll take a temperature of your head,
61
your heart, and your home.
62
In that, also another helpful thing, trade anxiety for prayer.
63
I think sometimes we internalize the stress and we just get really anxious,
64
heart palpitations, and we just start getting in our head.
65
And then we have a heart issue and we got a home issue and all,
66
you know, literal people feel like the powers of hell are coming upon them.
67
So when I say all hell breaking loose,
68
I mean, literally, like, you just feel like I'm under demonic attack here.
69
Like, this is crazy.
70
Bible says, trade anxiety for prayer.
71
You know the passage, Philippians 4, verses 6 and 7.
72
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything,
73
with thanksgiving in our hearts,
74
we make our requests known to God through prayer and supplication.
75
That's what we do.
76
What do we get in exchange for that?
77
We trade our anxiety for peace.
78
It's the peace that surpasses all comprehension.
79
The Bible says it will guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus.
80
So we're going to pray.
81
I think a lot of people,
82
they carry the stress internally,
83
and they don't turn to prayer.
84
You may eat it, you medicate it,
85
you drink it, you do all sorts of things,
86
but you don't pray to deal with it.
87
People need to pray.
88
Another one, work hard, but just rest in the sovereignty of God.
89
I used to have a pastor friend,
90
you know him really well,
91
he used to say, work like it depends on you,
92
pray like it depends on God.
93
And his idea was, you know,
94
get after it, but, you know, trust the Lord.
95
In that, I would say, work hard.
96
Sometimes work stress is related to very real issues.
97
I've got to provide.
98
I've got to execute.
99
I got a boss.
100
I got people that depend on me.
101
And I do think there's kind of a dueling track here.
102
We have a generation, I'll just talk about men for now.
103
We have a generation of men that have been bubble wrapped,
104
coddled, and we've had delayed adolescence.
105
And by the way, I speak as one who was in that.
106
You know, I was getting into my mid twenties after college.
107
I'm still playing video games with a headset on yelling at some kid in Australia on call of duty.
108
And you know, it's like grow up,
109
cost to be a man, get a job.
110
I go into marriage and Christine's got a man boy on her hands for two years.
111
And it's like, okay, this kid needs to figure it out.
112
So in that I needed,
113
I didn't need to be coddled.
114
I need to be called out.
115
So there's that issue at the same time.
116
There's this element of like, yeah, life is hard.
117
And there is a lot of pressure and not every man needs to be told,
118
like quit sitting around waiting for somebody to coddle you.
119
Cause you're bubble wrapped man boy and you played.
120
That's not what every man needs to hear.
121
Some men need to be reminded,
122
listen, yeah, I know the pressure is high.
123
I know you're under the gun.
124
I know you're feeling the weight of being the provider,
125
the protector, the go-getter, the guide,
126
the shepherd of the home.
127
Work hard, my brother, but then rest in the sovereignty of God.
128
He is the one who's in control.
129
Think of Proverbs 16, verse 3,
130
commit your works to the Lord.
131
What does that look like?
132
Give it to Him.
133
Lay it at His feet.
134
Trust Him with the outcome.
135
The work is your part and mine.
136
The results, they're His.
137
Now, practically, I think you could probably speak to this as well.
138
I jotted down a few notes about how to put legs to this.
139
What I gave you is the theological framework.
140
But what do we do?
141
You're a pastor.
142
I'm a pastor.
143
We're dear friends.
144
We've been running together for well over a decade,
145
and we've been through some tough times.
146
You've seen me under stress and pressure.
147
I've seen you under stress and pressure up close.
148
And we deal with a staff,
149
we have people, organizations, all that.
150
I think it's important for us to think through a few practical things here.
151
Number one, if you're experiencing a lot of work stress,
152
talk to your boss or your team.
153
Lean on each other.
154
We're a team.
155
That's right.
156
Lock arms.
157
There's times I've needed to come to you, talk with our elders.
158
At times you come to me,
159
we go to each other,
160
we talk as a team.
161
And that alleviates two things.
162
One, you're going to get support.
163
And when you go to people who really love you and you work with people who love you,
164
you're going to get support.
165
Or two, and I've had this happen to me,
166
it was early on, I went to my boss and complained and was looking to be coddled.
167
And what I got told is like, oh, I'm sorry.
168
You know, I didn't realize,
169
you know, this is where we're at,
170
but now let me speak to it.
171
Life is hard.
172
You have deadlines.
173
this is normal work pressure go get it done this isn't like you can't keep getting extensions
174
you got to get this done that's what we're paying you to do
175
and you're like oh ouchie you know yeah
176
and my my college coach used to use that illustration
177
and it applies in ministry
178
and in life he said what you need for the most
179
part is teammates not friends friends are gonna now i know
180
what he's speaking from a kind of a team perspective college baseball
181
but he would say teammates are going to tell you the truth,
182
even though they're hard, because it's going to motivate you to get your work done.
183
Friends are going to leave you in the same position.
184
You may feel better, but they're not pushing you in the right ways,
185
in the good ways, the truthful ways sometimes.
186
I would say that that's a great illustration.
187
On a team, that's the idea.
188
That's right.
189
I actually, as you were talking,
190
I'm like, oh, faithful are the wounds of a friend,
191
deceitful are the kisses of an enemy.
192
The idea is you know, coddling friends.
193
People are like, oh, it's okay, bro.
194
It's okay.
195
That's usually the definition on a team.
196
Usually it's like, he's my friend.
197
Being a good teammate though,
198
is saying, hey brother, actually.
199
That's right.
200
I'm going to wound you.
201
I need to shoot you straight.
202
That's right.
203
I had a buddy one time.
204
A story just came to mind as you were talking.
205
I was playing first base and the pitcher kept picking off over and I dropped the ball like twice.
206
Second baseman looks over at me and I'll never forget it.
207
He's like, catch the ball.
208
like at me, like very aggressive.
209
And I was just like,
210
you know, back at him, something like that.
211
Pitcher picks over a few more times.
212
I caught every one of them.
213
And afterwards he came up to me and,
214
and buddy JT, never forget it.
215
And he was, he ends up being,
216
he's a coach, like pretty high level coach,
217
even now I'm coaching D one, great guy.
218
And he comes over and he's like, Hey, relax.
219
I was like, well, why you got to come at me like that?
220
He's like, you didn't drop any more balls.
221
Did you?
222
And I was like, he was like, come on, big guy.
223
I needed to get kind of called out a bit.
224
So sometimes you apply that to work stress,
225
teammates, friendships, all of those relationships and you realize,
226
you know what you need in your life?
227
People to tell you what you need to hear,
228
not always what you want to hear.
229
It doesn't mean we won't minister to people,
230
but it does mean that sometimes you need to hear like,
231
hey, a job's a job.
232
Get it done.
233
Catch the ball.
234
Show up.
235
Another one, take a vacation.
236
This is not an anti-rest rant right now.
237
Yes, yes.
238
You and I, we do this.
239
We go hard in seasons, and it's normal.
240
It's like, yeah.
241
And the home is aligned, our wives, our kids.
242
We're getting after it.
243
And then we rest hard.
244
And you got to know your patterns.
245
As a person, I would say that.
246
I know mine.
247
I know when I'm due for,
248
I need some mountain air.
249
I know when I need to go for a hike.
250
I know when I need,
251
you know, 18 holes on a golf course.
252
You know when you need to breathe in the ocean air of California.
253
That's right.
254
I know when I need a home-cooked meal.
255
I know when I need a date night, an extra date night.
256
We date anyway.
257
And sometimes, you know, your daddy just needs a walk.
258
I know when I just need to go to a Diamondbacks game or go,
259
we need to know our rhythms and those things can cost money.
260
Those things can be free.
261
It's not about having money.
262
It's about knowing yourself and your patterns.
263
So if you're experiencing a lot of work stress,
264
take a vacation, relax and come back ready to rock.
265
Another one, get counseling, get counseling.
266
If you have anxiety linked to work,
267
you might have deeper issues.
268
Past just, you know, get it done,
269
and work's not causing it,
270
but work's a symptom of something deeper in your heart.
271
And then finally, after all that, shift fields.
272
If you are experiencing constant stress,
273
a lack of joy, and we know that you've been dealt with,
274
you're not the issue, and we know that you're resting,
275
and we know that you've got a good work ethic,
276
but you're just downright unhappy,
277
and you see work as worship,
278
and you're like, I'm just going to do it, Lord.
279
Maybe it's time then for you to think,
280
you know what, this pressure,
281
I'm a square peg in a round hole,
282
and I should shift career fields.
283
But you know what you're always called to be?
284
A godly worker who's worshiping Christ,
285
no matter what field you're in,
286
trusting Him to align all those things.
287
Does that make sense?
288
Amen.

通过以上的练习方法,学习者将不仅能提升他们的英语口语能力,还能够有效面对生活和工作中的压力,从而更加自信地运用英语进行沟通。
什么是跟读法?
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧,最初开发用于专业口译员的培训,并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大:您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同,跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性,语调,节奏,连读,听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
