Giving Thanks for the Provisions of God

November 21, 2024

"As you celebrate this fantastic American institution of Thanksgiving, I invite you to be reminded of the first fruits that are in God in Christ Jesus and be grateful for what he provided—the fruitfulness of the earth, but also the fruitfulness of your life in every way imaginable."

In this week's video, Bishop Alex explains what he loves about American Thanksgiving, particularly as contrasted with the Canadian Thanksgivings he celebrated as a child, and reflects on the importance of continuing the tradition of gratitude for the harvest.
