In this episode, we turn our hearts toward the powerful and often life-changing discipline of thanksgiving. As the Christmas season approaches and the year begins to draw to a close, we take intentional time to reflect on what it truly means to live with a grateful heart—not just in moments of abundance, but in every season of life. Together, we explore the spiritual, emotional, and relational benefits of thanksgiving, and how gratitude has the power to transform our perspective, deepen our faith, and strengthen our relationships with others.We discuss how thanksgiving shifts our focus from what we lack to what we already have, helping us to recognize God’s faithfulness in both the big victories and the quiet, everyday moments. We reflect on how gratitude softens our hearts, nurtures humility, encourages contentment, and brings healing to strained relationships as we learn to appreciate people more fully and extend grace more freely.Most importantly, we center our thanksgiving on Christ Jesus—remembering all that we have received through Him: salvation, forgiveness, new life, hope, and eternal promises. As we prepare to celebrate the birth of our Savior at Christmas, we pause to share personal moments of gratitude and to acknowledge the greatest gift of all—Jesus Himself.This episode is an invitation to slow down, reflect, and cultivate a lifestyle of thanksgiving that extends beyond a single season. Whether you are walking through a time of joy or carrying heavy burdens, this conversation will encourage you to lift your eyes, give thanks in all circumstances, and discover the peace and joy that flow from a truly grateful heart.
