Let’s be honest… 2020 has been an incredibly difficult year for many people and a strange time to encourage people to be thankful. Yet when we come to understand genuine thanksgiving, we realize that the ability to practice gratitude regardless of our circumstances is a sign of spiritual maturity. Genuine thanksgiving is not blind to our struggles, loss, or trauma, but rather is a choice to reorient our perspective. Join us this series as unpack the foundations of genuine thanksgiving.

Thankful (11-07-2020)

As we are heading towards Thanksgiving later this month and towards the end of 2020, we can’t think of a better way to end the month and head towards a new year than to investigate what it means to be genuinely thankful.

Fruit of the Wilderness Part I (11-14-2020)

Let's be honest, it feels weird to be giving thanks with everything that is going on in our country right now. Based on Jeff Manion's The Land Between, this week's message helps us recognize that we can find fruit even in the wilderness, and that that fruit can help us practice genuine thankfulness.

Fruit of the Wilderness Part II (11-21-2020)

When we find ourselves in extended periods of transition and instability, this "land between" is fertile ground for both positive and negative things. As we pick up the message from last week, we take a look at how leaning into community can help us avoid the negative fruit and see more of the positive as we navigate the wilderness.

How We Stand (11-28-2020)
