In this Thanksgiving episode, Jenny and Lee explore gratitude through an unexpected lens: how living in gratitude prepares us for the Second Coming of Jesus Christ.

They dive deep into the distinction between being grateful in our circumstances rather than for them, drawing on insights from scripture, Elder Uchtdorf, President Nelson, and decades of their own lived experience. Together they discuss holy vs. hard seasons, how gratitude strengthens our relationship with the Savior, and why expressing gratitude daily becomes a spiritual tool—not a toxic demand.

Filled with warmth, testimony, science, and humor, this episode is an invitation to walk with Christ today, not someday.
