Ep 20 | Answers for Life

As we approach the Holidays, now is a great time to begin reflecting on all that you are thankful for, but what is your thankfulness tied to? Is your thankfulness dependent upon your circumstance? Your material possessions? Your friends or family? Or is your thankfulness tied to the eternal gospel? This week, Pastor Shelly and Noah explore what the Bible says about being truly thankful.

  1. True thankfulness is not tied to circumstance (Job 1:21; Phil 4:11-13; 1 these 5:15-18)

  2. True thankfulness is not tied to material blessings (Phil 3:14-19; Matt 6:19-21, 24)

  3. True thankfulness is not tied to people (Phil 1:3; 1 Corinthians 1:4; Romans 3:23; Romans 3:10)

  4. True thankfulness is tied to the eternal gospel (Romans 5:8; Romans 6:23; 1 John 4:9; 1 John 3:1; Hebrews 12:28-29; Hebrew 13:15-16)
