    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 6, 2021
     | 2,731 views

    The sins and wickedness of thanklessness and ingratitude have infiltrated the lives of everyone and is even found in the church of the Lord Jesus Christ. This has got to stop and we need to repent.

    Most of us are familiar with the traditional story of Thanksgiving where William Bradford, of Plymouth Rock, proclaimed a day of Thanksgiving to celebrate the survival of the Pilgrims in their second year in the New World, as well as an abundant harvest that they had reaped with the aid of the ...read more
