About this listen

We reflect on the Miraculous Medal, the Eucharist, and the roots of Thanksgiving to show why gratitude is a daily choice anchored in God’s faithfulness. From the pilgrims’ losses to Washington’s proclamation, we trace a lineage of thanks that leads us back to the altar.

• meaning of the Miraculous Medal and Mary’s intercession
• Eucharist as the original thanksgiving
• pilgrims’ suffering and the practice of gratitude
• gratitude as a discipline, not an emotion
• abundance flowing from gratitude, not the reverse
• America’s founding and the link between thanks and liberty
• concrete encouragement for grief, worry, and hope
• blessing over families and the nation

Happy thanksgiving to you and to all whom you love, and may God guide, bless, and protect these United States of America
