Living Gratitude | Built to Last | Nathan Bentley

In a world full of stress, setbacks, and uncertainty, it’s easy to let gratitude slip away. But what if giving thanks wasn’t just a response to good moments—but a way of life that shapes our faith and fuels our endurance?

In this message, Pastor Nathan Bentley unpacks the power of gratitude, especially in the midst of life’s challenges. Gratitude isn’t surface-level optimism—it’s a spiritual discipline that emerges from the presence of God and changes how we face trials, setbacks, and even suffering.

🔑 Key Themes:

Gratitude as a lifestyle, not a moment
Why complaining damages our spiritual growth
How the presence of God fuels lasting thankfulness
The eternal rewards hidden in difficult seasons
Humility and the gift of imperfection
📝 Message Highlights:

Gratitude starts in God's presence, not in willpower.
Complaining is spiritually toxic—but thankfulness builds unity and faith.
Scripture calls us to rejoice and give thanks always (1 Thess. 5:16–18).
Even hardships are gifts that shape our character and faith.
Humility and gratitude go hand in hand.
🙌 Takeaway:
Gratitude is more than a feeling—it’s a foundation that helps us live a life built to last. No matter your situation, you can choose to thank God, trust His purpose, and see His hand at work.
