In Give Thanks, Pastor Joel walks through 1 Thessalonians 5 and focuses on Pauls simple but searching command: In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you (1 Thessalonians 5:18). You see how gratitude fits alongside rejoicing always and praying without ceasing, and why thanklessness is never neutral but tied in Scripture to a darkened heart (Romans 1:21). He contrasts contentment with the restless love of money (1 Timothy 6:6 to 8), showing that complaining, worry, comparison, and forgetfulness are enemies of thankfulness. Through practical examples and illustrations, you are encouraged to notice Gods everyday gifts, trust His sovereignty with tomorrow, and learn to give thanks in all circumstances, not because everything is easy, but because your life, future, and hope are secure in Christ (1 Thessalonians 5:18).
