About this listen

Join us for this Thanksgiving Day message from First Reformed Church. Drawing from Psalm 65, we are called to move past the superficial checklist of the holiday—the shopping, the food, and the football—to focus on the proper priorities of biblical gratitude.

The sermon highlights that true thankfulness begins with the acknowledgment of God's power and our sinfulness, leading us to the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ as our greatest blessing. Only by recognizing Christ's work can we truly praise God for His sovereign control over the world (the rain) and His loving provision of physical sustenance (the grain). We worship the mighty God who fills our plate and saves our souls.
