This thought-provoking book challenges the reader to rethink
the object of our thankfulness. So often we talk about being thankful for
blessings or things when the object of our thankfulness should move from something
to someone. Biblical thanksgiving begins which identifying reasons we are
thankful and then in turn express that gratitude to God.
The book begins by having the reader take a gratitude quiz.
As you go through the chapters which include examining gratitude’s blueprint
and a theology of thanksgiving, you will find a “putting it into practice”
section at the end of each chapter. These sections provide meaning ways to put
into practice what is discussed in the chapter. There are chapters that focus
on the steps of biblical thanksgiving as well as giving thanks in difficult
circumstances.
This very practical book is a guide to develop the
discipline of thanksgiving and improve your outlook on life. It may energize
your spiritual life as it encourages you to make the habit of giving thanks to
God on a consistent basis. The book could also be used in a small group setting
and would lend itself to great discussions.
I received this book from Moody Publishers in exchange for
this honest review.
