Gratitude that Strengthens Faith - Scott Cecil - 11-23-25

The sermon teaches that gratitude, resilience, and reflection are spiritual practices that strengthen our faith, especially in seasons of crisis. Through stories like Horatio Spafford and biblical examples such as Joshua, we see that true strength—chazak—comes from God’s presence, not our own abilities. When we give thanks, stand strong, and remember God’s past faithfulness, our faith becomes anchored, courageous, and unshakable.
