About this listen
Healthy tension: Jesus wants to help you find it and live in it.
Tension is tough. We don’t like it. We try to avoid it. Whether we feel it in a family relationship, a situation at work, or our online interactions, rarely do any of us walk away feeling like it was a win-win. Pastor Jeremy Yancey would like to change that. In his book Good in Tension, he proposes that tension is actually a good thing. It’s what makes a guitar sing and provides stable footing for a tightrope walker.
A lack of tension, or tension deficit, is where problems actually occur. Without healthy tension, we swing to extremes. On our own, we’re prone to extreme reactions to the storms and chaos of life. Let Jesus speak peace in the midst of your storm as you explore what it looks like to stand your ground and be:
- Focused yet Flexible
- Hopeful and Realistic
- Confident and Humble
- Candid yet Kind
Jesus is always inviting us back to a centered, surrendered trust in Him. Lean on Him and not your own understanding, and He’ll recalibrate your tension deficit.
