“Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.” ~ Colossians 3:2 (NIV) ~ People who watch just three minutes of negative news in the morning have a 27 percent greater likelihood of describing their day as unhappy or depressing, according to a study reported in Harvard Business Review. The study was performed by psychology researchers Shawn Achor and his wife Michelle Gielan. The study determined that workers who consume negative news — even as little as 3 minutes — potentially bring an unhappy and sluggish work ethic to the office, preventing both individual and company goals from being met.

For your convenience, Diaper Changing Stations are available in both Women’s and Men’s Restrooms in the foyer. Also, we have provided Children’s Worship Bulletins and boxed crayon sets for your little ones at the Welcome Desk. Any greeter is happy to assist you.

We believe that negative news influences how we approach our work and the challenges we encounter at the office because it shows us a picture of life in which our behavior does not matter. The majority of news stories showcase problems in our world that we can do little or nothing about. In psychology, believing our behavior is irrelevant in the face of challenges is called ‘learned helplessness,’ which has been connected with low performance and higher likelihood of depression.” Instead, they say that we should seek out “solution-focused news” — stories of resilience and accomplishment that reinforce the belief that our behavior matters; stories that inspire us to take action and work toward resolving the challenges we face. continued


with our activities.

Solution-focused stories inspire optimism. Optimism, Dr. Achor asserts, is the greatest predictor of entrepreneurial (or any kind of) success. This is because optimism allows the brain to actually see possibilities where no one else does. A good habit for believers to adapt is to begin the day not with CNN, nor mindlessly scrolling the headlines on your cell phone, but to immerse yourself in Scripture, listening to music and/or teaching that inspires and empowers you to live out your faith boldly. The most urgent news will certainly find its way to you, without your having to seek it out. The remainder of the drivel that fills your newsfeed can most often be ignored. Focus instead on the empowering truth of God’s Word. Blessings on your week as you take time to consider and put into practice ways to begin each of your days with habits that will enhance your life. I look forward to seeing you in-person or online in worship this Sunday morning as we continue my sermon series: APPROVED. Pastor Terrell
