Grateful to God Challenge 2020

#GratefulToGodChallenge is back! 2020 has certainly been a struggle and we are determined to brighten the next couple of weeks on social media. Being grateful for the people in our lives and the stuff that we have is great BUT if we aren't giving thanks to the One who gave us those things - we don't really understand Thanksgiving.

When we find contentment from the Giver of life - even through difficult times - we overflow with thankfulness.

So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.
— Colossians 2:6-7

During the next two weeks, November 12th-26th, let's fill social media not just with general thanks towards objects or people but with praise specifically to God!

Click the button below for a free printable of gratitude leaves and Bible passages that go with the challenge. Print on both sides so the Scripture is on the back. You can clip them on some ribbon for a swag or punch holes and hang them on branches for a Thanksgiving tree. Have fun decorating your home with thanks and praise!

How does the challenge work? 

  1. We will post a graphic on our Facebook & Instagram accounts with a gratitude word and Bible passage.

  2. Like and comment on the thread to gain an entry.

  3. Use #GratefulToGodChallenge and tag @holyhenhouse in your stories so more can see the praise across social media. Each shared story (with us tagged) counts as 10 entries!

  4. A winner will be chosen on Thanksgiving Day to receive a dwell mug, HHH stickers, HHH postcard set, and our upcoming winter magazine issue!

And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
