True gratitude is more than a warm feeling—it’s a God-designed response that reshapes how we see Him, ourselves, and the people around us. Scripture shows that real thankfulness flows from the heart, is rooted in God’s Word, and grows stronger in every circumstance. When we recognize gratitude as a divine gift rather than a human habit, we begin to see how it transforms our faith, our relationships, and our daily mindset. Highlights Gratitude begins in the heart and naturally overflows into worship (Psalm 9:1). Scripture calls us to give thanks in all circumstances—not just the pleasant ones (1 Thessalonians 5:18). True gratitude doesn’t pick favorites; it thanks God for everything, trusting His goodness (Ephesians 5:20). We thank Jesus for His strength, His calling, and His constant work in our lives (1 Timothy 1:12). Genuine gratitude includes thanking God for fellow believers who walk beside us (Colossians 1:3). Remembering God’s past deeds fuels present praise and future confidence (Psalm 9:1). Gratitude celebrates the grace God pours out on others (1 Corinthians 1:4). We give thanks for the faith growing in believers around the world (Romans 1:8). Gratitude honors the love God cultivates in His people (Ephesians 1:15–16). Remembering others in prayer is itself an act of gratitude (Philippians 1:3). Gift Inspiration: Crosswalk's Holiday Gift Guide Looking for a meaningful way to celebrate the season?

Full Transcript Below: What the Bible Teaches about True Gratitude By Lynette Kittle Bible Reading: “And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as a human word, but as it actually is, the word of God, which is indeed at work in you who believe.” - 1 Thessalonians 2:13 In looking to learn about gratitude, the Bible is our teacher, with God being the author and creator of gratitude. It isn’t a human invention but a God-given response that rises up within us because He created us to express gratitude to Him. In learning to thank Him, it’s where thankfulness spills over to expressing gratitude to those we love and even strangers we interact with on a daily basis. Gratitude isn’t by any means a product of human nature or our fallen world, but rather a divine gift from God above who stirs it up deep within our hearts. Throughout the Bible, God encourages us to give thanks and to show true gratitude. The following are ten true characteristics the Bible teaches about true gratitude. True biblical gratitude comes from the heart. If anyone knew how to express gratitude to God, it’s David. Whether shepherd boy or king, his heart seemed to overflow with it. David teaches us that gratitude is a heart issue, writing in Psalm 9:1, “I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.” True biblical gratitude is for all circumstances. Gratitude has no boundaries, meaning it isn’t reserved for happy times only, which the Apostle Paul knew all too well, experiencing many circumstances in his life, difficult ones. So, if anyone knew how to give thanks in all circumstances, it was him. In 1 Thessalonians 5:18, he shares his wisdom, writing, “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” True biblical gratitude is for everything. Whether good, bad, or ugly, the Bible teaches that true gratitude makes no exceptions in life. No matter if life is empty or full, we’re called to give thanks to God, focusing on Him and not what’s going on in our lives. As Ephesians 5:20 urges, “Always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.” True biblical gratitude is given to Jesus for all He does for us. For all the benefits and blessings we receive from Christ Jesus, the Bible teaches us to give thanks. Paul models how in 1 Timothy 1:12, “I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has given me strength, that He considered me trustworthy, appointing me to His service.” True biblical gratitude thanks the Father for fellow believers. True gratitude thanks God for our brothers and sisters in Christ, as Colossians 1:3 encourages. “We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you.” True biblical gratitude remembers God’s wonderful deeds. In Psalm 9:1, David points out the importance of remembering and telling others every wonderful deed God has performed. True biblical gratitude includes thanking God for the grace He gives to others. As 1 Corinthians 1:4 encourages us, “I always thank my God for you because of His grace given to you in Christ Jesus.” True biblical gratitude offers thanks for the faith of others. Paul teaches us how true gratitude thanks God for the faith He gives to those around us, as he wrote in Romans 1:8. “First, “I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being reported all over the world.” True biblical gratitude honors love in others. Paul, again, in Ephesians 1:15-16 explains, “For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers.” True biblical gratitude is expressed in remembering others. As Philippians 1:3 reminds us to give thanks in remembering others. “I thank my God every time I remember you.” Intersecting Faith & Life: Our best teacher when it comes to learning about true gratitude is found in the Bible. As the author of gratitude, no one knows or can teach us more about it than God. He is our authority on how, when, where, and why to express it.

As in the Days of Noah: Living Prepared in Ordinary Times Jesus warns his disciples that the coming of the Son of Man will be sudden and unexpected, . . . . . . just as in the days of Noah and Lot, when people were absorbed in ordinary activities and unprepared for God's intervention. Jesus urges readiness, detachment from worldly attachments, and a willingness to surrender one's life to God. As the liturgical year nears its end, the Church's readings focus on the end times . . . not to inspire fear, but to remind believers that life is a journey toward God. The Homily explains that preparing for Christ's coming involves two essential steps: acknowledging the existence of God and allowing God to influence one's life. The first reading from Wisdom warns against admiring creation without recognizing the Creator. True wisdom is to see beauty in the world and let it lead us to God. What Does Being Ready Mean The Gospel adds that being ready means letting God shape our daily lives, rather than resisting His influence. Ordinary activities become spiritually empty when God is excluded from them. Preparation involves letting God's will challenge and transform us, trusting Him even in moments of doubt or suffering. Genuine trust requires a full surrender of the heart . . . not holding back parts of our lives from God. The Homily concludes with an invitation to affirm love for Jesus from the heart and to let this love guide all actions and decisions.

This episode begins with the idea that all the troubles in the world at this time bring a great weight and pressure down upon, not just humanity as a whole, but also each individual soul. Since our souls are secretly tuned to the world, the widening divisions outside us tend to activate inner splits within us, specifically in the form of early life feelings of being abandoned, rejected and overwhelmed.     Fears of abandonment and overwhelm return each time we face great obstacles or the need to truly change, not because we are inherently bad or simply ill-fated. Rather, a genuine crisis will activate our early life experiences of rejection and loss in order that we find ways to heal our inner wounds and at the same time reveal our deepest gifts. Part of what seeks to become reclaimed as part of our natural inheritance used to be known as the child of joy, the source of natural buoyancy as well as inner resiliency.     Our innate connection to joy can be a meaningful antidote to the weight of the world and the increasing anxieties that entrap us. However, finding again this kind of soul connection requires that we work through the exact wounds that keep us from feeling fully alive to begin with. The problem turns out to be not simply that there was an original betrayal that leaves us wounded, but also that we keep betraying ourselves in the same way. Eventually, the issue is not simply who did what to us and why, but rather how we manage to stop abandoning ourselves each time we feel fearful, on the edge of overwhelm or stuck in life again.     Genuine change and renewal, on both individual and collective levels, require that we touch the original splits again and heal the wounds that separate us from the inner source of existence and the innate sense of joy that naturally attends the gift of life. For it is this soul connection and inner resilience that seeks to be found, that waits to be felt again and that wishes to be nourished, despite and because of the troubles that now plague the world.     Thank you for listening to and supporting Living Myth.

If you are interested in the Daily Bible Devotional, you can find it at the links below:Amazon - (paperback, hardcover, and Kindle)YouTube Video Introducing the ContentFeel free to reach out with any questions: emersonk78@me.comI Peter 4 Peter urges believers to adopt the same mindset as Christ, who suffered in the flesh. Those who endure suffering are finished with sin and should live the remainder of their lives according to God's will, not driven by human desires. He reminds them that they have already spent enough time in the past indulging in sin, and although others may be taken aback by their new lifestyle, they must remain steadfast in their obedience. They are challenged to love one another sincerely, practice hospitality without complaint, and utilize their gifts to serve as diligent stewards of God's grace. He encourages them not to be astonished by trials but to rejoice in sharing Christ's sufferings. They are blessed when insulted for His name and should continue to glorify God while doing good.  Christ calls us to live with a mindset that prioritizes obedience over comfort. We choose to turn from sin and follow God's will, even when it leads to suffering. Although others may question our choices, we remain steadfast in our purity. Genuine love for one another becomes our priority, covering many sins and fostering a strong community. We are encouraged to be hospitable without complaint and to use our unique gifts to serve others with joy and care. When hardship arises, we do not view it as meaningless. Instead, we rejoice in sharing in Christ's sufferings, knowing He is with us. Through every trial, we continue to do what is good, trusting that God sees, strengthens, and sustains us.  Glorious Lord, help us live for Your will rather than our desires. Grant us the strength to flee from immorality and idolatry, even when it leads to mistreatment by others. Fill our hearts with deep love and support for one another and teach us to serve with joy and humility. May we offer hospitality with a willing spirit and use our gifts to bring You glory. When trials come, help us rejoice in sharing in the sufferings of Christ. Let us not be ashamed, but praise You in all things. Keep us faithful and steadfast as we do what is good.  Thought Questions: -       Explain why the time already passed is sufficient for sinful living. Why will you now live the rest of your life in the likeness of Jesus? -       Why does the world often malign Christians for their lifestyle? Why is it essential to have a fervent relationship with believers? -       Are you surprised when people in the world revile you for your faith? How do you prepare yourself to suffer courageously in Jesus' name?

Our words serve as spiritual health monitors, revealing the true condition of our hearts. Jesus teaches that just as a tree is known by its fruit, our inner spiritual condition is revealed through our outward words and actions. The Pharisees focused on external appearances while neglecting internal transformation, living an outside-in faith rather than inside-out. Genuine character isn't about trying harder but training wisely and becoming a Yes, Lord person who surrenders completely to God. Our words don't just slip out - they overflow from what's stored in our hearts, and we'll be held accountable for every careless word we speak.

This is a talk I was invited to provide to the inaugural 2021 Stoicon-X Military conference, held online. I chose as my topic the scope of genuine courage, a topic of considerable importance but also frequent misunderstandings within professions like that of the military. In this talk I discuss what courage is and what it is for, the scope of courage, including its constituent virtues, and finally the relationship between courage and the other virtues.

Do you know these Scriptural principles? Genuine works will be rewarded by God. In the epistles, exhortations to live godly are based on what God has done and plans to do in the Christian's life and not based on fear of losing salvation.

Max Kringen from TellWell Story Co. shows listeners how to use story in their job interview process to stand out from a sea of candidates and make authentic connection. As Simon Simek suggests, start with why. Your why is your differentiator. The how is probably similar to other applicants and the organization will want you to buy into their how. For job seekers to set themselves apart: have stories that align with the point you're making. People remember how they feel more than they will remember stats. Use narrative transportation to help make connection. This sounds like, “do you remember when…”And when asked the inevitable…Tell me about yourself. Get real. Start by sharing something not included in your resume or application materials. Be authentic. It could include the first time you realized this mission or organization was important. It may be the heartbeat of your professional life or the moral conviction that drives your work. The interview process allows many opportunities to build trust. Use the Trust Framework to develop a strong rapport with the hiring team:Introduce: where curiosity is sparked, each party thinks, “there may be something here for me”Educate: build reliability; articulate your skills and experience that align with the job at handEngage: call to action; ask the interviewer for the opportunity to address any beige or red flags they see in your candidacy; Remind: this one is simple but often overlooked, remind people that you love them, if you're grateful for the opportunity to interview, share it with the hiring teamLooking beyond the job search, we hear from Max where the nonprofit industry is headed. With attention spans getting shorter and shorter, it's not about getting louder and louder: Cut the jargon because clarity is kindness. Do NOT copy and paste out of AI. **Genuine human connection is going to win.**The nonprofit sector needs to approach communication with our boards, supporters, beneficiaries and the public at-large aiming to create community and connection. We can apply this same approach in the interview process, lead with authenticity with the goal of making connection.TellWell Story Co. is a creative studio that helps nonprofits tell more human stories that build trust through film design and web experiences. ABOUT OUR GUESTMax Kringen is the Founder and Chief Storyteller at Tellwell Story Co., a creative studio based in Fargo, North Dakota, that partners with mission-driven organizations to craft human-first stories that don't just inspire—they drive action. With a decade of experience helping nonprofits, higher education institutions, and community-based businesses share their stories, Max has become a trusted guide for organizations seeking authentic connection in a noisy world.

Podcast: Light on Life Season 12 Episode Forty-Two. We're living in a time when truth is questioned, convictions are mocked, and following Jesus often means swimming against the current. Yet this is exactly what genuine believers are called to do—to stand firm and contend for the faith. Authentic believers aren't spectators in the fight for truth; they're servants—called, kept, and empowered by Jesus.

This stand-alone message explores what true, biblical friendship looks like through the example of Jesus and his closest friends—Peter, James, and John. Deep friendships go beyond fun memories to shared spiritual experiences, vulnerability, and loyalty. These three friends witnessed Jesus in his highest moments—the Transfiguration, where they experienced his divinity together—and in his lowest moments, like Gethsemane, where they shared in his grief. Genuine friendships are marked by depth, honesty, celebration without jealousy, and faithfulness through both joy and pain.

Genuine faith always bears fruit in obedience and love because Christ's life in us naturally produces what our effort never could.

On this Healthy Mind, Healthy Life episode, certified sexologist Mandy Hart explains why play and pleasure are not extras—they're core to mental health, nervous-system regulation, and intimate connection. We dig into trauma responses, shame, authenticity vs. performance, and simple ways to lower stress, reboot desire, and rebuild self-trust. If you want a clear, trauma-informed blueprint to bring curiosity, laughter, and embodied presence back into daily life and relationships, this conversation gives you practical steps you can use today.   About the guest  : Mandy Hart is a certified sexologist and founder of Heart's Desire: Intimacy & Relationship Coaching. She blends behavioral science with trauma-informed, somatic coaching to help clients release shame, reconnect with the body, and build honest, enjoyable intimacy.   Key takeaways: Play shifts the brain out of protection and into exploration, reducing walls that block intimacy and self-connection. Genuine fun lowers cortisol and calms the nervous system, supporting mood, energy, and healthier choices. Shame thrives on self-consciousness; small, safe acts of silliness (dancing alone, laughing at awkward moments) rebuild confidence. Laughter during imperfect moments can transform embarrassment into bonding and positive sexual experiences. Authenticity over performance: performing is fine if you enjoy it; it becomes harmful when it's a “should” that disconnects you from yourself. Start tiny: make a “feel-good” list (music, baths, nature, reading) and schedule one micro-dose of joy daily. Protect decompression time after work; short rituals (e.g., music on the commute) can reset the body before hard conversations. Presence fuels desire: think “pilot light” at your core—fun and permission help it burn brighter. Balance matters: use fun to fulfill, not to avoid; if life tasks suffer, recalibrate without moralizing. A quick practice: breathe into your belly, recall something that gives you butterflies, notice sensations, accept them without judgment.   Connect with the guest   Website: https://harts-desire.com/  (free consultation via the Scheduling tab) Email: mandy@harts-desire.com Instagram: DM via Mandy's profile   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

How can we hold both joy and struggle—and still feel grateful? In this episode of Chasing Brighter, hosts Jessica Colarco and Kelly discuss the importance of finding gratitude amidst life's chaos. They explore how gratitude can shift our focus from negativity to appreciation, emphasizing that it doesn't erase pain but rather widens our perspective. The conversation includes personal anecdotes, practical tips for cultivating gratitude, and the significance of embracing both joy and struggle in our lives. The hosts encourage listeners to practice gratitude daily, highlighting its role in emotional flexibility and personal growth.   Inside This Conversation:  Gratitude shifts our focus from what's missing to what's meaningful. Our brains are wired to scan for danger, leading to negativity bias. Gratitude doesn't erase pain; it widens our perspective. Genuine gratitude acknowledges both the good and the hard. Practicing gratitude can lead to biological changes in our brain. Finding gratitude in small moments can help us feel more content. Gratitude is a practice that can be developed over time. It's important to balance gratitude with acknowledging our struggles. Gratitude can be cultivated through simple daily practices. Embracing imperfections allows for growth and grace.   Chapters 00:00 Embracing Gratitude in Chaos 05:07 The Balance of Gratitude and Pain 10:04 Practical Ways to Cultivate Gratitude 15:00 Micro Moments of Gratitude 18:44 Reframing Daily Annoyances 21:00 NEWCHAPTER gratitude, grace, emotional flexibility, positivity, mindfulness, parenting, self-care, mental health, personal growth, resilience Connect With Us:

This episode of Living Myth is about blindness, both individual and collective, and about the need for genuine visions and visionaries. Western culture, enthralled with the heroic and trapped in the limits of egotism, continues to turn a blind eye to the deeper sense of self and soul that alone can give a renewed sense of vision that can see beyond modern ideas that have come to threaten the future of the Earth.   As long as we see through the lens of the heroic ego, we are likely to remain stuck in the territory of the same old willfulness and predictable blindness that cannot see ways to arrive at a deeper ground of understanding or a greater way to envision the living world. As the philosopher and humanist Erasmus said: "In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king." As the naturalist and poet Thoreau once stated: "I would give all the wealth of the world and all the deeds of all the heroes for one genuine vision."   Genuine change requires that we open our inner eyes and see from a deeper place. For, the new shape of the world only comes into view and becomes conscious to us when a vision arises from the darkness around us and from the unseen depths of our own unconscious. It is this kind of transformative vision that breaks through the blindness that both binds and polarizes us.   Something ancient and knowing is trying to catch up to us. And if our souls can stand deeply enough in the river of time, we can receive lost truths and wisdom from the deep well of memory as well as visions of the mostly unseen future. This combination of imaginative vision and deep memory has been the ongoing source of vitality and renewal that visionaries, seers and wounded healers throughout time have drawn upon to give us our true bearings even when the world itself seems to have lost its way.     Thank you for listening to and supporting Living Myth.

Not every relationship can—or should—be salvaged. In this solo episode, Corey shares a personal story and outlines five unmistakable red flags that tell you it's time to step back to protect your peace. Sometimes, staying in the conversation means knowing when to step away. In this raw and introspective solo episode, host Corey Nathan opens up about a deeply personal encounter that pushed him to confront a painful question: When is it time to “unfriend” someone—really unfriend them? With vulnerability and clarity, Corey unpacks a recent experience with someone who crossed multiple emotional and ideological lines. What begins as a story about a text thread gone wrong unfolds into a thoughtful reflection on the emotional cost of dialogue, the importance of mutual respect, and the red lines we all must define for ourselves if we're to stay sane and whole in polarized times. If you've ever wrestled with staying true to your values while trying to build bridges, this episode will resonate deeply.

How can you create something so authentic that your customers become your loudest advocates?

I have to admit, I was nervous to do this interview. I met Ruchika Malhotra by chance years ago, and have been in awe of her work ever since. She is the visionary author behind the new book, Uncompete. Building on her viral conversation about imposter syndrome, Ruchika delves into the core thesis of her latest work: the necessity of rejecting a destructive culture of competition to unlock true, sustainable success. She challenges the ingrained notion that scarcity and cutthroat individualism are the only paths to achievement, arguing instead that collaboration, abundance, radical generosity, inclusion, and solidarity are the keys to professional and personal fulfillment. Ruchika shares powerful insights on how modern, profit-driven systems push us toward fear-based competition—a behavior that fundamentally runs counter to our human need for community and connection. The conversation explores how this cultural "default" impacts everything from the workplace to personal health and even major life decisions like starting a family. Here are my favorite takeaways: Competition is a Short-Term Fix, Collaboration is the Long-Term Strategy: The current societal and corporate default toward competition often stems from a fear-based, scarcity mindset, but this approach only yields short-term gains. True, sustained success comes from moving away from a "winner-take-all" mentality and intentionally fostering environments built on collaboration, where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. Micro-validations matter: Genuine allyship is not a passive title but an active, conscious effort to uplift others, especially those who have been historically overlooked. Ruchika emphasizes that simple "micro-validations" of support, such as personally advocating for someone or giving credit where it's due, can significantly change the trajectory of a person's life and foster meaningful connections. Redefine Success: It's About Connection, Not Capital: When asked to look back on their lives, people's measures of success overwhelmingly center on the time they spent with people they love and the strength of their community, not their financial accumulation. The practice of Uncompete challenges listeners to redefine what success means to them, prioritizing community and well-being over the pressure to constantly compete for money or status.
