—A Good News Gospel Message— Pastor Rowlands of Westgate Chapel, Edmond, Washington, focuses this sermon on Thankfulness, an appropriate message for the Thanksgiving season as well as one for us to heed throughout the year. “Thankfulness gives birth to humility. Thankfulness erases self pity (resentfulness), pride. Thankfulness is the birth place of a joyful life,” says Pastor Rowlands. The importance of a thankful attitude is part of the Apostle Paul’s narrative throughout the Epistles. It is referenced 42 times. Pastor Rowlands points to Colossians 3:15-17– the canopy over this powerful message to the believer.
