Happy Thanksgiving! The Greek word of thanksgiving is literally translated: “The giving of thanks for God’s grace.” We are constantly aware of being graced, we say grace, and we share grace. The Christian life is a three-way grace! We give thanks for 400 years of a tremendous heritage handed down to us by the Plymouth Pilgrims.  Such a strong contrast between the slave-based economies and the family economy espoused by the Pilgrims! They experimented with socialism, and then settled on a free market economy early on. And they were strong on family discipleship. We are the next generation of Pilgrims.

Thanksgiving is a characteristic of the Christian lifestyle, and lack of thanksgiving is condemned by God. The English word "thanksgiving" in the New Testament is a translation of the Greek word "eucharistia," which at its core is "charis" or grace. An understanding of grace is absolutely necessary for an appropriate response of thanksgiving. Grace and thanksgiving are inextricably bound up in each other.
