06 A Thanksgiving Reflection: Rejoice, Pray, and Give Thanks
06 A Thanksgiving Reflection: Rejoice, Pray, and Give Thanks
What does rejoice, pray continually, and give thanks have in common?
Here’s a hint: They are listed in a well-known verse we always hear in November.
In 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18, Paul writes: “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”
Three simple but sometimes hard commands to live by:
-
Rejoice always
-
Pray without ceasing
-
Give thanks in all circumstances
In today’s episode, Missy talks about these three commands and encourages listeners to create a list of things they are thankful for.
Happy Thanksgiving! And remember to live boldly for Jesus and let your light shine bright for Him!

Welcome Friends!
My name is Missy, and I love Jesus!
I am a Christ-follower, wife, mom, author, speaker, Colson Fellow, and host of the Bold Faith Now podcast. My heart is to encourage believers to live boldly for Jesus in a world that often tells us to stay quiet, blend in, or keep our faith tucked safely in the shadows.
Through writing, speaking, and podcasting, I help believers grow in bold faith, stand firm in truth, and view the world through a biblical worldview. Because following Jesus was never meant to be passive. It is a call to shine His light, speak truth with grace, and take the next obedient step.
My prayer is simple: to point others to Jesus, encourage bold faith, and remind believers that now is the time to live courageously for Him. Join the Bold Faith community and listen to the podcast for encouragement to live out your faith with conviction, clarity, and courage.
