Explore what it truly means to practice Thanks-Living—a way of life rooted in gratitude no matter what circumstances we face. Drawing from Psalm 100:4, we'll discover how entering God's presence with thanksgiving can transform our perspective, deepen our faith, and help us recognize the blessings woven into our everyday moments. Learn how grateful living isn't just a response to good times, but a spiritual posture that brings joy, peace, and renewed hope each day.
Thanks-Living (Additional Message by Pastor Yow of Gahanna – “Go, and Make Disciples”) MESSAGE SUMMARY: Today's Message by Archbishop Beach -- ”Thanks-Living”: We need to develop a mindset of “Thanks-Living”, which includes a perspective of “thankfulness” based on God's faithfulness to His promises. God wants us to live with a fullness in our lives, but our lives should not be focused and consumed by “things”. Jesus tells us, in Matthew 6:33, to seek first His Righteousness and His Kingdom: “But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.". Additionally, Jesus tells us in Matthew 6:25a,27: “Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life . . . And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?”. Have faith; trust in God because He knows what we truly need, and God is faithful in His promises. Rather than worrying and being anxious about “things”, we need to view the “things” of the world with “thanksgiving” because God has promised to provide what we need – this perspective and focus on earthly “things God's faithfulness to His promises is “Thanks-Living”. We need to live in thanks for what God has promised to do for us. We should seek to form an “attitude of gratitude” to instill a perspective of thankfulness to God who has provided and will provide – “Thanks-Living”. If you have a need, thank God because He knows your need; and that, somehow and in some way, God will provide for your need. Paul promises in Philippians 4:19: “And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.". When you enter a life focused on “Thanks-Living: 1) your life burden is lifted, and it is replaced by God's peace; 2) God becomes your partner is the life issue that you are facing; 3) you are provided with a spirit of anticipation for what God is going to do; 4) you will find that God is always faithful; and 5) your faith will increase. During the week of America's declared holiday of Thanksgiving, practice living your life in “Thanks-Living”. Today's Added Message by Pastor Yow of Gahanna – “Go, and Make Disciples”: Pastor Yow's focus is to take the Gospel and his witness into those places in which God and Jesus are unknown; and the practice of “religion” in these places is, often, through “witch doctors”. Also, those in America, who are supporting missions, must “believe” themselves: “American Christians must believe because there are too many unbelievers in America”. In order to fulfill Jesus' Great Commission to make disciples in America as well as beyond America, those professing to be Christians must be a witness to the Gospel by proclaiming, publicly and often, our faith in Jesus and His Gospel to the world. TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, Sabbath rest is truly an unbelievable gift! Thank you that there is nothing I can do to earn your love; it comes without any strings attached. As I close my eyes for these few minutes before you, all I can say is, thank you! In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 133). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM FORGIVEN. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. (1 John 1:9).

Happy Thanksgiving! These days, most folks don't remember what Thanksgiving is all about - other than big sales all over Amazon. The Pilgrims celebrated the first Thanksgiving after a successful harvest in October 1621. The feast lasted three days. The federal holiday began in 1863 when President Abraham Lincoln proclaimed a national day of "Thanksgiving." Thanksgiving is about being grateful. I think a statement from Stoic Philosopher Epictetus is fitting, "He is a wise man who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has." Today and every day, let's make it "Thanks-Living" day. Eat well, nap, watch football, and embrace your family and friends. Joi and I are thankful that you allow us into your life.

In this episode, Paige and Omar dive deep into thankfulness—not just as a polite gesture, but as a powerful spiritual practice. Exploring the approach of David in the Psalms, they unpack how genuine gratitude can transform our perspective, even when life feels challenging. Discover how embracing thankfulness can shift our focus from temporary struggles to eternal truths, ultimately opening our hearts to God's grace and peace.
Generosity is about far more than money. Generosity is about taking your entire life - everything you are and everything you own - and using it to bless the people around you. Generosity is for everyone. You don't have to be rich to be a giver. You don't have to be a multi-millionaire to be generous—the requirements for generosity center on Identifying an opportunity, taking action, and trusting God to bless the act of generosity.

Thanksgiving is an amazing Holiday. Unfortunately, many see it as a Holiday to skip over. For some, it's just the Holiday to get the "real" Holiday season started (Christmas Eve, Christmas and New Years). Thanksgiving is the Godfather of The Holidays. Being thankful is not only what makes all the other Holidays so great, it's what makes life great. When our thankful level is up, our Happy level is up. Tune in to this brand new podcast we are hosting called the MODERN DAY ALCHEMISTS with Kristen Brown, Joseph MoJOE McCarthy and myself.

In the hustle and bustle of the holiday season, we can sometimes lose sight of the reason for our celebration. On today's edition of Family Talk, the late Pastor Adrian Rogers continues his presentation on the subject of biblical thankfulness. He highlights ancient Israel's approach to gratefulness in the Tabernacle, and how Christians today can honor God. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/707/29
According to the late Pastor Adrian Rogers, There is no other sin quite like the sin of ingratitude. On today's classic edition of Family Talk, we'll hear a special message from Pastor Rogers on the word sacrifice, and how it is used in Scripture. Psalm 107:21-22 states, Let them give thanks to the Lord for His unfailing love and His wonderful deeds for mankind. Let them sacrifice thank offerings and tell of His works with songs of joy. Be reminded that we must not take the Word of God lightly! We need to be grateful for all we have, especially as we prepare to celebrate Thanksgiving Day here in America.

Have you ever felt the pressure, or the letdown, from wanting the holidays to be perfect? But the holidays can come alive more as feelings in one's heart, rather than outer events. Build upon the foundation of sentiments that make a holiday real. The universal language of gratitude is contagious and life giving! Rather than one day on the calendar, live a life of Thanks-living, thinking of specific things from boogers to moo-cows, and the family you were given and the family you've chosen and gained. You won't look at things the same way when you see life through the lens of gratitude.
