Description

Why does complaining come so naturally—and gratitude feel like work?

In this immersive opening to this series on thankfulness, Jonathan Kindler unpacks what gratitude is really pushing back against. From the murmuring of Israel in the wilderness to Paul and Silas singing in a prison cell, this episode explores why unthankfulness isn’t just a bad habit—it’s a worldview. Through scripture, storytelling, and personal reflection (including a marathon gone sideways), Jonathan shows how complaint reshapes the soul, while gratitude restores perspective and peace.

You’ll hear how comparison sabotages joy, why gratitude is structural—not cosmetic—and five anchors that hold when thankfulness feels impossible. More than positive thinking, this is worship in motion: learning to turn back, to name grace, and to enter God’s gates with thanks again.
