TMP 185 - Why We Should Change the Name from Thanksgiving to Giving Thanks

November 27, 2025 • Mike Van Pelt • Episode 185

Join me on the True Man Podcast as I reimagine the holiday name of Thanksgiving to "Giving Thanks"—a shift from a day to a way of life. Instead of simply celebrating what we have, we’d focus on actively appreciating and giving back, allowing gratitude to guide our lives beyond a single day. In this episode, I explore how adopting a daily "Giving Thanks" mindset can deepen our faith, strengthen our relationships, and bring purpose and joy that lasts far beyond the holiday season. #truemanpodcast #startyourcomebackstory
