Overcoming Missionary Stress
Stress is a natural part of even a healthy life. But too much stress can damage relationships, hamper productivity, even ruin lives. Living in alien, often hostile cultures, typically without normal support networks, missionaries are especially vulnerable to stress.
Drawing from years of experience as a missionoary doctor and psychiatric counselor, Dr. Marjory Foyle outlines the causes and effects of missionary stress. Topics include: missionary marriage; dealing with singleness; relationships with co-workers; raising children' culture shock' handling burnout; mental health.
