November 23rd, 2025 | Standalone | Luke 17:11-19

As we step into Thanksgiving week, Pastor Daniel Norris invites us to shift our hearts into a posture of gratitude—one that recognizes God’s mercy, returns to Jesus in worship, and ultimately leads to a transformed life.

Drawing from Luke 17:11–19, this message unpacks the story of ten lepers who encounter Jesus, yet only one returns in gratitude. Through vivid storytelling and personal reflection, Pastor Daniel explores how easy it is to become familiar with God’s grace—so familiar that we forget to marvel at it. But a grateful heart remembers where Jesus was headed, recognizes the mercy we’ve received, and comes back to the feet of the One who gave it.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• How gratitude begins when we remember the mercy Jesus extended long before we ever moved toward Him.

• Why obedience often precedes breakthrough, just as the lepers were healed “as they went.”

• What sets true gratitude apart—not just receiving God’s blessings, but returning to the Blesser.

• How gratitude transforms us, making us whole from the inside out.

Whether you feel like one of the nine who walked away or the one who returned, this message calls you to slow down, remember God’s grace, and respond with a heart full of worship.

Join us as we prepare for Thanksgiving by cultivating A Grateful Heart.
