Gratitude--An Attitude that Will Take You the Distance

The Bible contains many reminders of the importance of gratitude. James draws heavily from these Scripture passages as he explores the importance of an attitude of gratitude. He emphasizes that gratitude is important for the following reasons:

• Gratitude (or a lack thereof) is highly contagious
• A life attitude of gratitude is commanded in Scripture
• Purposeful cultivation of gratitude can be life-changing

“Gratitude—An Attitude that Will Take You the Distance” was presented by James Jantzi at Teacher Inspiration Day in February of 2025 at Brookside Conservative Mennonite Church in Listowel, Ontario.
