Gratitude & Emotional Honesty

How can we be thankful if we’re in a season where we don’t feel thankful? We may even be experiencing trials or grief and feeling downright bad!

Being thankful and experiencing feelings of grief, anger, or dissatisfaction are not opposed to each other. We don't have to deny our pain or suffering in order to express gratitude to God. In fact, true thankfulness comes from being emotionally honest about both the good and bad things we’re experiencing.

In this Soul Talk, BiIll and Kristi walk us through how our hearts and souls can have a truly thankful posture no matter what we are experiencing.
