GRATITUDE | Giving Thanks | November 24, 2024

 
 
 

Sermon Description:

As we approach Thanksgiving, we’re reminded of our culture’s annual rhythm.  But if we’re honest, most of modern Thanksgiving is more about making food and travel and watching the Detroit Lions than it is taking time to really let gratitude flow out of us.  But gratitude isn’t just something we do to be polite - it’s a deeply formative practice.  But it’s also one that’s fleeting in our fast-paced culture.  But it’s more than simply taking time to slow down.  The Scriptures tell us that gratitude isn’t merely thanking God for the good things we have in our lives, but a deep, settled peace that we can trust and accept from God’s hands anything and everything that comes our way - even very bad stuff - because in God’s hands, even very bad things can be turned into very good things.

SPEAKERS:

David Kim (Saratoga), David Tieche (South Hills)

Bible Passage(s):
