Join us for our Summer 2023 Book Club-Style Bible Study

using the book Choosing Gratitude: Your Journey to Joy by Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth
"...true, Christ-centered, grace-motivated gratitude fits everywhere, even in life's most desperate moments and difficult situations. Even when there are no "answers," it gives hope. It transforms overwhelmed strugglers into triumphant conquerors."
—Nancy DeMoss, Choosing Gratitude
Gratitude is a choice. If we fail to choose it, by default we choose ingratitude. Once allowed into the heart, ingratitude does not come by itself, but with other seedy companions that only succeed in stealing our joy. Not choosing gratitude is more costly than we realize. 

Derived from a popular Revive Our Hearts radio series, Choosing Gratitude: Your Journey to Joy challenges and equips us to live a life of intention, a life based on thankfulness for the freedom Christ has provided and for the blessings of others. By intentionally thanking God and others, bitterness and entitlement are replaced with joy and the humble realization of just how undeserving we really are. 

When we do choose a lifestyle of heartfelt, humble gratitude, we are mindful of the benefits we receive from our gracious Savior and those He has placed around us, and our joy becomes full. 

The book includes a bonus 30-day plan of journaling, prayer, and activities to guide you on your path to joy. Grab yours here today!

​What People Are Saying About Choosing Gratitude

"Nancy leads you, step by step, through those select Scriptures and insights that are your journey into Heaven-sent joy. Not a here-today-and-gone-tomorrow kind of gladness, but a deep and profound joy that simply cannot and will not be shaken. A joy that even sees you through those things you'd be quick to call tragedies." —Joni Eareckson Tada

Quotes From the Book

“Gratitude is a lifestyle. A hard-fought, grace-infused, biblical lifestyle. …the transforming power of gratitude [is] reserved for those who know and acknowledge the Giver of every good gift and who are recipients of His redeeming grace.” —Nancy DeMoss, Choosing Gratitude
"Ingratitude is one of our enemy's most lethal weapons...So much of what is wrong in our lives—out of sync, out of sorts, out of harmony—can be traced back to this root of ingratitude... Unrealistic expectations...Needing God but not always wanting God, we expect others to take the place of God in our lives. depending on them to guide our decisions, to love us continuously and unconditionally, and to provide for us emotionally, physically, socially, and totally. And when they disappoint us—which inevitably happens—rather than being grateful for God's unchanging love and His faithfulness in meeting our needs, those unfulfilled expectations easily turn to resentment that poisons our hearts and relationships." —Nancy DeMoss, Choosing Gratitude
“It is only by recognizing that our blessings have a single source—a real, personal, living, and loving Giver—that gratitude begins its transformation…” —Nancy DeMoss, Choosing Gratitude
