Thankful

Believe it or not, we are only a few weeks away from Thanksgiving. Thankfulness holds a special place in the Christian tradition, and this seems like a good time to explore how we can give thanks in all things: big or small, happy or sad.

Message line-up:

Gifts Great and Small

Pastor Scott Austin

Listen

Sometimes it is easier to start out small with a spiritual practice. Before we can even begin to think about giving thanks in the midst of suffering, we must learn to recognize God’s small gifts in ordinary life, and to give thanks as our gift back to God.

1 Thessalonians 5:12–18

11/14

Thanksgiving in Suffering

Pastor Scott Austin

Listen

Giving thanks even in the midst of our suffering is easily one of the most difficult concepts for Christians to practice, or even accept. We will take a gentle look at the idea and see how we might be able to apply it in our time.

Ephesians 5:15–20
