In November our hearts are naturally drawn toward reflection and giving thanks. "Rhythms of Thanks – Everyday Gratitude in All Seasons" is a 4-week teaching series designed to rewire our souls for a lifestyle of gratitude, not as a seasonal sentiment but as a steady habit woven into our days, echoing God's faithfulness year-round. Drawing from Scripture, this series invites our church community into a journey of repetition: from discovering the foundational habit of thanks, to embedding it into daily routines, sustaining it through disruptions, and expanding it into shared practices. Perfectly timed for Thanksgiving, it bridges fall's reflective close into Advent's joy, reminding us that true gratitude repeats through every trial, triumph, and ordinary moment, beyond turkey and pie.
At its core, this series challenges the modern drift toward entitlement and anxiety, countering it with the biblical call to "give thanks in all circumstances" (1 Thessalonians 5:18). We'll explore how gratitude is a repetitive discipline that cultivates resilience, deepens relationships, and amplifies our witness where we live, learn, work, and play. Our desire is that each Sunday we’re not just inspired, but equipped with tangible habits that build long after the holidays. To foster engagement, we encourage everyone to use the Gratitude Calendar resource for daily gratitude entries. This tool weaves personal threads into the series, creating space for vulnerability and growth. We look forward to what God will begin in our lives, praying that a “Rhythm of Thanks” becomes a year-round mindset in all seasons.
