Ben Smith: All for the Kingdom

Give Thanks, Psalm 106


Listen Later

In this episode, pastor Ben Smith explains the biblical meaning of thanksgiving through Psalm 106. Unlike secular gratitude, which often focuses on personal blessings or accomplishments, true thanksgiving is a worshipful response to God’s character, mercy, and faithfulness.

The sermon unfolds in three parts:

A thankful heart is focused on who God is – God’s goodness, His inexhaustible praise, and faithful provision.

A thankful heart confesses the reality of sin – examining Israel’s unfaithfulness and the importance of personal confession.

A thankful heart rejoices in God’s faithfulness – celebrating His undeserved mercy and steadfast covenant love.

Listeners are encouraged to consider how a God-centered heart transforms gratitude into authentic, enduring worship.
