We've gone through a tough time in our church and in our lives over the last months.  And as I look over the present state of things in our country, even in my church, and life, it can feel like a long dry season.  And it feels like we may never emerge.  

So, I preached this sermon during Thanksgiving week this year to encourage the hearts of those who still hold fast to Christian faith; "Things to be Thankful for in a fruitless year."
