Every year, I always write about Thanksgiving and offer new ways to make your holiday more filled with Jesus’ presence. And as such, I wanted to present to you all of our resources, both from the past and some new ones for this Thanksgiving, so you can really make the most of this holiday.
And even though Thanksgiving isn’t a traditional Church holiday, it is a time for celebrating a virtue important for our Christian faith.
In this issue:
Start off by measuring how well you are doing in living a life of thanksgiving with our free Gratitude Quiz. Another great resource is our free gratitude journal that will help you prayerful reflect on how much there is to be thankful for to God.
Learn how to letter Grateful, Thankful, & Blessed with this free resource.
Get your guests and family sharing their gratitude through these great ideas: Thankful Conversation Placecards, How to Create an Easy Gratitude Board For The Big Turkey Day.
I have also put together a wonderful Christian worship playlist for you to play on Thanksgiving or really anytime to create an atmosphere of gratitude towards God.
