In this episode, Dr. Jim Van Gelderen recounts a week when every vehicle he relied on broke down at once, leaving him overwhelmed and unsure how to move forward. While wrestling with the pressure of unmet needs, God used Colossians 2:6–7 to redirect his heart: the life of faith isn't powered by human problem-solving but by abounding with thanksgiving. As Dr. Jim began thanking God for the very things that were weighing him down, peace replaced panic and God provided in unmistakable ways. His story shows that genuine faith doesn't start when circumstances improve. Faith begins with “Thank You.”Topics DiscussedAn avalanche of vehicle breakdowns and impossible logisticsThe human tendency to try to figure everything out instead of walk by faithHow Colossians 2:6–7 ties faith and thanksgiving togetherThe difference between thanking God for blessings and thanking Him for burdensWhy thanksgiving is an act of faith, not a feelingHow choosing gratitude transforms your spirit in the middle of difficultyGod's surprising provision of a truck and SuburbanWhy the spiritual breakthrough mattered more than the material answersKey TakeawaysYou received Christ by faith, and you walk in Him the same way: by trusting Him enough to thank Him even before the answers come.Thanksgiving is not a reaction to good circumstances; it is the expression of faith that God is working when you cannot see how.When you choose to say “thank You” in the middle of pressure, God lifts the weight and gives grace that changes everything.Referenced ResourcesShort Clip: “Abounding Faith”The brief clip Dr. Jim saw on WhatsApp status from Bobby Bosler.Youtube Short, Instagram Reel, Facebook Reel, TikTok ShortFull Sermon: “Abounding with Thanksgiving”The full message Dr. Jim mentioned, unpacking Colossians 2:6–7 and the connection between faith and gratitude.Listen on Spotify, Listen on Apple Podcasts If you've been encouraged by this podcast, please take the time to give us a five-star rating and write a brief review.

November 25, 2025 Daily Devotional: “Living by Faith” 2 Corinthians 5:7 "For we walk by faith, not by sight." Every day presents unknown decisions we have to make, people we have to interact with, and outcomes we cannot control. This devotional today reminds us that we are called to walk through this world not based on what is clearly visible orguaranteed, but on the unshakeable character of God. "Sight" represents our human perspective, our senses, and our immediate circumstances. It is limited by what we can see, feel, and rationally understand. When we rely only on sight, we become anxious when the future is unclear, or discouraged when a problem looks too big."Faith" however, is a spiritual vision; it looks past the immediate circumstances and rests on the promises and presence of God. Faith doesn't mean we deny the problem, but it means we believe God's power is bigger than the problem. It istrusting that God is good and in control even when the path ahead is dark. The verse says "we walk by faith." Walking is a continuous, daily action. Every morning, you have a choice: Will you be led by the fear of the unknown, by sight or by the certainty of God's Word, our faith? Choose to take one step at a time, trusting the Lord will light the very next step, even if you can'tsee the whole road. Take a moment to bring this truth into your day. What is an area in your life today, may it be a relationship, a financial worry, or a decision that feels uncertain, stressful, or foggy? How can you take one small step today that demonstrates your trust in God's character, rather than waiting until the entire situation is clear? Write down or say aloud one attribute of God that counters that uncertainty. If I'm worried about provision, I declare that God is my Provider; if I'm worried about a relationship, I declare that God is Love. If I am worried about a health crisis, I declare that God is my Healer. May your day be filled with peace as you trust in the unseen Hand that guides you!

Sometimes the stories we tell ourselves can get in the way of what is actually possible. We sometimes assume our problems are not big enough compared to what else is happening in the world. Or, we may believe we're not worthy or deserving of God's love and care. Maybe you think if you're honest about what you've been struggling with others will judge you or think you're weak. These kinds of stories keep us at arm's length from the help and care we need. They can become barriers that keep us from experiencing a good and loving God and the care and compassion of those who love and care for us. The stories we see in Mark 5 paint illustrate that Jairus and the woman who touched the hem of Jesus' garment did not let their circumstances keep them from God. They chose to believe the stories they had heard about Jesus—that he could bring them good news.

In the light of recent and tragic events, believers around the world are choosing to take a bolder stand on their faith in ways they have never done before. On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week we spoke with a pastor whose experience during the COVID church restrictions in California led to a deeper understanding of what it means to defy authority to take an unwavering stand to be bold for the gospel. He shared the transformative lessons that seem particularly timely in the light of impact of the killing of Charlie Kirk and the backlash that has come as a result of it. Our guest explained how the presence of faithful believers is a reminder of judgment and the need for salvation to a fallen world. The veil between our world and the supernatural one is very thin and therefore elicits many questions and confusions for believers. Our guest, who has been led by the Lord to minister in this very specific area of service, cut through the confusion on this topic and offered us clear, grounded biblical insight. Many people are faithful in prayer but not so much in another important Christian discipline, fasting. Our guest, a highly respected pastor and teacher explained the importance of both of these spiritual practices to the life of the believer and how important they are to the strengthening of the Christian’s faith walk and deeper relationship with God. What if financial investing could have a great purpose than just the accumulation of wealth? We spoke to a man who says that aligning your financial decisions with your faith can yield unexpected and eternal benefits through transformative and healing change in the lives of others for the kingdom of Christ. Our favorite husband and wife team are at it again! They invite you to another though provoking discussion of the news of the week as they guide us to more faithful living by examining that news through the unflinching light of scripture.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
