Thanks
Sep 10, 2017 • Matt Santen
In the final message of Five Words That Will Change Your Life, Pastor Andy unpacks the power of the word “Thanks” through the story of Jesus healing ten lepers in Luke 17. While all ten were physically healed, only one turned back to express his gratitude—and that’s the one Jesus called truly “whole.” The message reminds us that it’s not enough to feel thankful; real gratitude must be expressed. Whether it's toward God or others, unspoken thankfulness leaves something important unfinished. This isn’t about boosting God’s ego—it’s about unlocking the power of appreciation in our lives and relationships. Being thankful isn’t just polite—it’s transformative.
