Gratitude: The Soul's Greatest Discipline - Season 4, Episode 134

Many of us live with a persistent sense of dissatisfaction, believing happiness will arrive only when circumstances improve or we acquire more. Yet gratitude—far from being a natural response to abundance—is a spiritual discipline that transforms how we perceive and experience life. Pastor Dorrell argues that deliberate thankfulness is not merely an emotional state but a command from God and a foundational practice for nourishing the soul. Drawing from 1 Thessalonians 5:18, he demonstrates how recognizing God's benefits, understanding our role as His beneficiaries, and consciously choosing gratitude reshapes our perspective and unlocks joy regardless of external conditions. Consider adopting gratitude as a daily spiritual practice, deliberately finding something to thank God for in every circumstance, and watch how your heart—and consequently your life—transforms.
