The holiday season is rapidly approaching! This week we’re reminded that thanksgiving is more than just a holiday. It’s also a posture of the heart. Through family memories, the beauty of shared meals, and even the ache of loved ones no longer with us, we see glimpses of God’s goodness. But true thankfulness goes deeper than circumstances. It leads us to a life of faithfulness.
Pastor Brian turns to the example of Daniel in the Bible – a man who was incredibly thankful and faithful to God despite living in a hostile culture. He was pressured to compromise, yet he was steadfast in his devotion to God. His public, consistent faithfulness shapes not only his own destiny but also the faith of a king.
In a world increasingly confused and combative, followers of Jesus are invited into this same unshakable faith. Faith that is expressed not just in private belief but in visible, courageous faithfulness. This message calls us to take inventory of God’s goodness, to stand firm in who we serve, and to trust deeply in the God who rescues, sustains, and remains faithful to His people.
