Sermon: The Courage To Say Thank You
In The Courage to Say Thank You, Pastor Marben Bland reminds us that gratitude is more than good manners—it is a bold act of faith. Preaching from Luke 17:11–19, he shows how only one healed leper had the courage to return to Jesus and give thanks, and that gratitude made him whole, not just healed. Pastor Bland connects this powerful moment to Christ the King Sunday, teaching that Jesus is sovereign—ruling over time, nations, creation, sickness, and sin.
The sermon highlights three godly forms of influence: influence through light (letting our light shine in a dark world), influence through experience (using our years and wisdom to bless others), and influence through winning souls (guiding others to Christ).
We are challenged to let our gratitude become influence—returning to God with a thankful heart and using our lives to point others toward His glory.
