Hi, my name is Pete Scazzaro. I want to welcome you today to the Emotionally Healthy Leader

podcast. And our title is Finding Rest While Under Pressure, Finding Rest While Under Pressure.

I'm so glad you're here. There's a lot of pressure right now with the pandemic of COVID-19 around the world, having so many of us

shelter in place. And there's really two primary areas that were under great pressure. The first,

of course, is our relationship with God. The second is our relationships with people. And so we've

tried to do a number of podcasts, uh, connected to our relationship

with God. I've talked about four ways to flourish amidst continual chaos, talked about a rule of life,

journeying through the collective dark night of the soul leading through loss. Uh, and last

week, we did one on relations with people, which is another huge issue of stress in our

spiritual lives, because we're living in tight quarters.

And a lot of cracks are being revealed in our discipleship.

And I know we're in day 35 right now.

And we have at least another 25 plus where we're located here.

And so Jerry and I last week talked about clarifying expectations and why clarifying expectations will save your life and leadership. And the felt need was so great that it was actually our greatest download total of

any one day with the release of a podcast. So we will do a number of other podcasts related to

discipleship around relationships. And so again, let me encourage you to, as I launch into this, to get yourself at our website,

Emotionally Healthy.org and get that training on level one of the Emotionally Healthy discipleship

course.

It's all free for you, the videos as well.

And it's just a critical time right now for formation in him, learning to

be still before him. And we want to utilize this time, I believe it's the people of God,

to get ourselves more deeply equipped in Jesus so we can be a gift to the world around us.
