Many churches run a stewardship campaign in the fall, this series is not intended to be about the pledge card. Rather, this is a reflection on the spiritual attribute of living a life of thankfulness. Our commitment to giving, however, is certainly tied up with gratitude.

Three weeks before the end of the liturgical year, and we turn to gratitude as the guiding theme for worship. What does a life of gratitude look like? Or perhaps more importantly, what does it feel like? Our gratitude begins with God, of course. So, sing our songs of praise and thanksgiving – enter the gates with thanksgiving. Let our worship begin and end in our acknowledgment of the God who provides and who is present always. But let us also give thanks for the church, the family with whom we worship; let us be bound together in singing and praying and mutual love and support.
