The Knew Normal – Week 3 | The Power Of The Spirit Of Gratitude

When the small acts that once mattered become invisible and gratitude slips into habit or silence, relationships fray—marriages, friendships, even our connection to God can feel slowly hollowed out by taking others for granted. This message speaks directly to that tired place: the everyday moments we stop noticing, the exhaustion of trying to “be more grateful,” and the sting when kindness is met with indifference. The sermon points away from willpower and toward a different source: gratitude that overflows from a life touched by Christ. Using plain stories (and a memorable black-hole metaphor), it shows how gratitude isn't just a feel-good practice but a response to a power that fills what we cannot. Expect honest examples, practical clarity about where gratitude gets lost, and an invitation to see thanks born from something larger than our own effort—an image that reframes what it means to live gratefully and keep relationships alive.
