Gritty Gratitude: The Power of Praise in the Mess

It’s easy to sing songs of praise when life is smooth, the bank account is full, and our relationships are thriving. But what happens when life gets messy? Gratitude typically isn’t our first response when we’re hurting, struggling, exhausted, angry, or feeling like we don’t fit in with the crowd. In the context of faith, gratitude isn’t a superficial feeling or toxic positivity. Gratitude can be a gritty, gear-grinding choice. This five-week worship series will encourage us to trade polite, comfortable platitudes for honest, challenging, transforming praise.
