Celebrating Thanksgiving (Lev 23 & Psalm 118)
- We start with the origins of our Thanksgiving Day,
- work through the kind of things Jesus gave thanks for,
- and look briefly at modern discoveries of how thanksgiving changes your brain.
- Then we do it!
Compelling reasons why you should develop a habit of giving thanks (Col 3 & 4)
- Why does the Bible have such an emphasis on being thankful?
- Remarkable studies have shown that gratitude makes us happier, less likely to be depressed and even live longer.
- But much more than any of that, God loves us to be thankful and takes great pleasure in our expression of it.
