In this episode we talk about why gratitude is such an important topic for this moment in history.Biblical ideas of gratitude and why its more than the mumbled grace at the dinner table or the forced thank you cards we make the kids write.We think about what stops us from being grateful including affliction, doubt and busyness. Finally we talk about how we can show gratitude/make the choice to be grateful despite our circumstances.We go to a few places in the Bible in this episode, here are the verses from Habakuk;Hab 3 17-19. 'Though the fig tree does not bd and there are no grapes on the vines….yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will be joyful in God my Saviour. The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to tread on the heights.'We talk about a few books we have enjoyed reading on this topic:Peter Maiden 'Radical Gratitude'Mary Moehler 'Growing in Gratitude'Paul Mallard 'The Grace of Gratitude'

I'm sure we've all had those conversations with friends and family which ultimately come down to this issue: “But if God exists, and he is all-loving, then why am I experiencing this suffering?” Maybe it's one we are currently wrestling with ourselves. It's one of the most-quoted arguments against the existence of God. So, “Why do we suffer?”
Ros and Amanda are discussing the #1 Bestseller at Word Alive 2018: Invest Your Disappointments by Paul Mallard.
26/Mar/2017: Paul Mallard speaks from Romans 12 on (i) our relationship with God v.1-2 'Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will', (ii) our relationship with one another v.3-16 'think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the faith God has distributed to each of you. For just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others. We have different gifts, according to the grace given to each of us', (iii) our relationship with the world v.17-21 'Be careful to do what is right in the eyes of everyone. If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone'
