#059: Never Not Thankful [Thanksliving]

thanksliving-N-644

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours this week! Thanksgiving time is not always filled with thanks-giving. In fact, 90% of people are only thankful when it’s over. Ok, well that stat might be made up. Regardless, the last thing we want for you is for you to miss out on the joy of Thanksgiving because you just don’t feel like being thankful.

This week’s conversation addresses the struggle to be thankful emotionally. Let’s face it, we don’t always feel thankful. Why is that? Listen to the show this week and decide for yourself to never not be thankful. Joining Jeff & DW on the show is Jason, Terra Kay, and Mike Ott. Leave your thoughts with us on the Tweetback!

#058: Attitude [Thanksliving]

T.H.A.N.K.S. This month, Jeff & DW will break down this word and help you live a life that’s thankful every day. The series is called “Thanksliving.” We’ve got the “A” for you this week!

Today’s generation, being so consumer-driven and consumer-minded, has created a thankless culture where the small things become even more insignificant as we search for the bigger, better, faster things. Consumers care less about the ‘why’ and more about the ‘what.’ It takes diligence to remain thankful in all circumstances.

Leave us some love on the TWEETBACK!

A- Attitude: Your attitude is your way of thinking. Changing an attitude isn’t just snapping out of a bad mood. It’s transforming your thought patterns. It takes work! Check out 1 Peter 4:1-2 NLT | ESV

#044: Do Not Conform

Tonight, two youth pastors join Jeff and DW on the show! Michael Ott, Student Ministries Pastor at Graceway Fellowship, and Jordan Wind, Youth Pastor at Heartland Church chat about their experience in student ministry and give some challenging perspectives. What does it mean to conform? How should we live as Christians?

Discussed on the Show

“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.” – Romans 12:2

“Who we’re following and what we’re following determines which direction we go in life.” – DW
