3. How Fake Gratitude Can Lead to Real Joy

Do you ever feel like you're supposed to be grateful… but you're just not feeling it? You’re not alone. In this episode, John Ortberg tackles what to do when gratitude doesn’t come naturally and offers a surprisingly powerful spiritual strategy: “Let’s pretend.”

But don’t worry — this isn’t fake it till you make it.
It’s: “Fake it till He remakes you.”

Rooted in the wisdom of C.S. Lewis, the Apostle Paul, and the ancient Hebrew practice of the thanksgiving sacrifice, this episode walks us through why aspiring to be grateful, even when we don’t feel it, is not inauthentic, but actually a deeply faithful act.
