Finding Thanksgiving

“Thanksgiving is not about how much we have been given but about how much we have trusted.”

In the second week of this Thanksgiving miniseries we moved on to Colossians 3:15-17 and saw that gratitude is to permeate everything we do. When that happens it’s not about a list of things we’re thankful for but a life that produces thanksgiving in ourselves and others.

This has been one of those series where I feel like I have grown as much from the sermons as my listeners (maybe more). I’ve loved digging into these passages that have been familiar for years and finding something new–and new ways to share them.

I’ve also really enjoyed the email interactions about thankfulness. I feel like they’ve encouraged us all to think about thanksgiving in terms of being more than just a holiday.
