The holidays aren't always easy. Between empty seats at the table, strained relationships, financial stress, and memories of loved ones we've lost, Thanksgiving can bring just as much heartache as it does joy. In this special Thanksgiving episode, Jen opens up about what gratitude really looks like when life isn't picture-perfect. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 5:18 "Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus" she reminds us that thankfulness isn't about pretending everything's fine, but about trusting that God is still good in the middle of it all. Gratitude isn't denial, it's direction. When we anchor our hearts in thankfulness, even in the mess, we make room for peace, perspective, and God's presence. Whether this season is full of laughter or loss, this episode will encourage you to find one thing to be thankful for each day because gratitude has the power to shift everything.
