To become truly grateful is incredibly difficult, but the difficulty of the process makes the results all the more lovely. God invites us to enter into this world of thankfulness at every moment in our lives, even in the hard times--perhaps especially then. Pastor Kang continues: Gratitude heals us and holds us, tethering us to one another, offering us joy and strength. As with <em>Deep-Rooted in Christ</em>, this book has fifty-two short chapters that can be read in weekly sabbath reflection or daily devotional use. So come and discover a spirituality of gratitude.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Kang is a writer of controlled and balanced eloquence, and his heartfelt and intelligent prose here delineates the notion of the acceptance of God's grace with gratitude as an opportunity for understanding of the world and for a richer experience of God's glory. Kang's elegance is something all preachers should study and emulate. A smart, subtle essay in Christian spirituality from a pastor who deserves (and may find) wider renown as a spiritual writer.</p>--Library Journal, July 2015<br><br><p>Kang, author of 30 books, has a talent for packaging deep insights and quotes into brief essays that, in cultural parlance, 'pack a punch.' The two to three page essays can be read quickly but deserve time for careful thought. The book could be read over a year with one essay per week, read through in its entirety or used as a topical reference to address needs. Recommended for church libraries.</p>--Carolyn Egolf, Congregational Libraries Today, March 2016<br><br><p>This book may well become a classic. The 52 brief readings provide devotional thoughts. I savored it slowly, one chapter daily, taking time to reflect; I plan to return to it regularly. I want to grow in gratefulness. 'Gratitude affords the opportunity for problems to become treasures' (p. 30).</p>--Cathy Walker, Journal of Christian Nursing, December 2015<br><br><p>While many books reveal how gratitude benefits our lives--grateful people have better health and relationships, for example--Kang's approach is quite different. Far from a self-help treatise, this devotional collection of 52 short chapters explores gratitude as a means of understanding God's grace.</p>--Publishers Weekly, May 11, 2015<br><br><p>While this is a book about cultivating an 'attitude of gratitude, ' this isn't a hallmark-y, sentimental book. I appreciated the theological thoughtfulness behind each of these meditations. Kang has a gift for exploring the various circumstances of life and showcasing God's grace there. We have a lot to be thankful for, whatever our circumstances if only we had eyes to see. Kang has eyes that see the gifts of God for us, and he helps us all to see and understand all that God has for us.</p>--James Matichuk, Thoughts, Prayers Songs, July 21, 2015<br>
