Today, we kick off a brand-new November series as we take a look at having an attitude of gratitude, and what it really means to be thankful in all things.

Considerable quote:

“When we aren’t intentional about pausing in gratitude, negative thinking and burnout often creep into our mind and heart. Gratitude, or a lack of it, colors our whole perspective. It impacts our time with God, the way we approach the tasks of the day, and our relationships with family, friends, students, the body of Christ and the unbelieving world. We are surrounded by a culture that breeds entitlement instead of gratitude. Some have never even been around people who exude joy and thankfulness. When they are around someone who genuinely exudes gratitude in their speech and demeanor, it is a testimony to the presence and personal work of God. Gratitude is refreshing, life-giving and contagious!”
