Hour 1: The First Thanksgiving - with William Federer

On Thursday join Mornings with Eric and Brigitte when author and radio host, William J. Federer shares more interesting details about the first Thanksgiving.

Hour 2: When I Don't Feel Grateful - with Lisa Anderson

The opposite of grumbling over what we don't have is gratitude for what we do have. How do we change course from grumbling to gratitude? Maybe we don't understand the seriousness of grumbling? In Philippians 2:14, it says, "Do all things without grumbling or disputing, that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world." On Thursday's Mornings with Eric and Brigitte, host of the Boundless Show, Lisa Anderson talks to us about the steps we can take to change our habits from grumbling to gratitude.

Hour 3: The Thanksgiving Guests We Forgot - with Ron Hutchcraft

Native Americans. The First Americans. Have we forgotten them? Their history is everywhere in our nation from the rivers to cities to states to what we eat during our Thanksgiving dinners. But today, their battle to survive is not anywhere on our radar. On Thursday’s Mornings with Eric and Brigitte, Ron Hutchcraft joins us to talk about how America's first mission field is still one of America's greatest mission frontiers more than 400 years later. How have we, as American Christians, missed ministering to these people with just 4% of Native Americans professing to know Jesus Christ?
