What might happen when we shift from expectation to gratitude? It’s easy to get caught up in all the “shoulds” of life, all the grand plans. But what if we took a moment to step back and smell the roses, literally? In this Sunday’s sermon, we’ll learn how the natural world can provide an incredible lesson on how to shift from expectation to gratitude, and in the process, create a sense of spiritual centeredness.
