    Using the story about the Ten Lepers who were clenased I talk about the reasons why followers of Christ should be thankful today.

    Read Luke 17:11-19 Jesus is on his way to Jerusalem. Now, we can’t just read that verse and move on. There is an important truth about this verse and that is when Luke says Jesus is on his way to Jerusalem he wants us to know that He is on his way to the cross. On his way he travels between the ...read more

    The powerful lesson of gratefulness as taught in the account of the 10 lepers.

    Introductory: Two men were walking through a field one day when they spotted an enraged bull. Instantly they darted toward the nearest fence. The storming bull followed in hot pursuit, and it was soon apparent they wouldn’t make it. Terrified, the one shouted to the other, "Put up a prayer, John. ...read more

    The one leper who returned to give thanks encourages me to be thankful in 6 ways.

    One Gave Thanks November 22, 2009 I heard about an episode of the Simpsons, where the family was sitting down for supper and Homer asked Bart to give thanks before the meal. Bart bowed his head and said, “Dear God, we paid for all this stuff ourselves… so thanks for nothing.” Now to some people ...read more

    All ten of the lepers were cured, but only one was healed.

    Have you ever had to “suit up” to visit someone in the hospital? Sometimes in order to protect both the patient and the visitors, extensive preventative measures are taken. On some occasions I’ve had to put on a mask, gloves, head covering, booties and a protective gown. I felt like I was ...read more

    A Thanksgiving Eve sermon preached 11/25/2009 at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon, Iowa.

    Our Gospel lesson for this evening introduces us to a group of 10 “mystery” men. I say this because we don’t know much about these guys. They may come from completely different backgrounds, be different ages, and for all we know, they may not get along very well. But, they had one common ...read more

    Is Thanksgiving A Foreign Idea To You?

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Dec 3, 2009
     | 2,407 views

    We are sometimes surprised when we hear a non-church person giving God praise for something done in their life and we are surprised by it. Maybe we are even a little embarrassed since we may have received a similar blessing but forgot to give thanks.

    Is Thanksgiving a Foreign Idea to You? Thanksgiving Day 2009 Luke 17:11-19 On January 31, 1957, the Canadian Parliament proclaimed: A Day of General Thanksgiving to Almighty God for the bountiful harvest with which Canada has been blessed … to be observed on the 2nd Monday in October.

    The importance of gratitude and humility.

    We all know about the good Samaritan, but how many of us have heard of the grateful Samaritan? We are going to meet him today, but firstly I want to tell you about my friend Allen. Allen was quite different from most people. To have called him unconventional would have been an understatement, and ...read more

    10 were healed, but only 1 returned to thank the Lord. I want to be the one who expresses thanksgiving for all the Lord’s blessings.

    As we open our Bibles once again to the Gospel of Luke, we are reminded that it was penned by Luke the physician. Luke, a Greek, was a well educated man who was used of the Lord to pen two books of our New Testament, The Gospel of Luke and the Book of Acts. As Mark had written for the Romans, ...read more

    As far as Jesus is concerned it's not so much religiosity and background but practiced faith in him which counts. This story isn't as much about thankfulness as it is about WHO was thankful.

    Is anyone here a Canadian? If you were Canadian you would know that tomorrow is Canadian Thanksgiving. In the States we have Thanksgiving on November 25th this year. The Chinese had their Autumn moon festival a few weeks ago. The Koreans had their three day harvest festival, Chuseok, just a ...read more

    Jesus' call to us is service (Luke 17:11-19)

    Jesus is on the way to Jerusalem. He will be betrayed, tortured, abandoned and murdered. He’s going willingly, in the full knowledge of what will happen to him. Yet, instead of being paralysed by fear, despair or anger at the unfairness of it all, he continues to live out the way of service. ...read more
