  • Ep. 147 — Gratitude & Thanksgiving in this Advent Season with Clayton Greene (GoodKind)
    Nov 30 2024
    As the Advent season dawns, gratitude often finds itself overshadowed by the rush of holiday checklists, gift shopping, and endless to-do lists. This Thanksgiving weekend, Patti Garibay is joined by Clayton Greene, CEO and co-founder of GoodKind, to help us reclaim a heart of gratitude that carries through all of Advent. Clayton’s journey with GoodKind began with a desire to help families anticipate Christ’s arrival in a way that fosters meaningful moments and lasting memories. Together with his wife Kristen and close friends, Clayton created the Advent Blocks—a devotional tool that encourages families to savor each day of December, centering their hearts on the greatest gift: Jesus. Through GoodKind’s unique products, including the GratiKube, families can practice daily gratitude in simple, profound ways that cut through the seasonal hustle. In this conversation, Clayton and Patti delve into the Biblical roots of gratitude, exploring how the Advent season offers a perfect opportunity to reflect on God’s unwavering love. Clayton shares how practicing gratitude not only builds family bonds but also brings kids and parents alike closer to a true appreciation of Christ’s sacrifice and love. He offers insights on weaving gratitude into daily routines, from mealtime reflections to meaningful conversations, ensuring that the season’s heart doesn’t get lost in the decorations. Clayton’s tools for celebrating Advent are now available in the AHGstore, and Patti is excited to introduce AHG families to resources that nurture the soul. Tune in for ideas on keeping gratitude alive, and be inspired to celebrate a season filled with purpose, faith, and the true spirit of giving.
