  • Fundamental Gratitude

    Gratitude is about being thankful for what you do have rather than being upset about what you don’t have. Gratitude is an essential ingredient on the journey to living the abundant life Jesus promises. And finally, gratitude is most beautifully seen in our response to the free gift of God, his son Jesus. These are just a few of the principles we will learn through the 4-week Gratitude series.

    In today's episode Pastor Dan will be talking about how as humans we often desire a life of worth and significance. It’s part of our DNA. Although significance is in the eye of the beholder, if we believe our life carries a weight of goodness that benefits the world and those we love, we will desire to leave this world knowing it served a purpose.
