You’re probably pretty stressed right now, aren’t you? You’re not alone:
Researchers say they quizzed 3,000 people about stress levels and discovered that half pin-pointed mid-morning on Tuesday as their ‘stress peak’.The majority of workers said they coast through Monday getting their brain in gear and catch up with gossip from the weekend and discussing TV shows they’ve watched.
But on Tuesday reality sets in and staff spend the very first part of the day going through emails they ignored on Monday before planning the week ahead.
Eh, reality can wait until Wednesday. Why not take a break and read some articles from the archives of First Things . We’ve opened up the archives for non-subscribers, so you can read twenty years worth of the magazine’s content for free online. You can also get access to the last ten issues by signing up for a digital subscription . A yearly digital subscription is only $15 (print subscribers get free access to the online edition).
We launched the First Things 2023 Year-End Campaign to keep articles like the one you just read free of charge to everyone.
Measured in dollars and cents, this doesn't make sense. But consider who is able to read First Things: pastors and priests, college students and professors, young professionals and families. Last year, we had more than three million unique readers on firstthings.com.
Informing and inspiring these people is why First Things doesn't only think in terms of dollars and cents. And it's why we urgently need your year-end support.
Will you give today?
