Gratitude Prompts – Karen Purvis pt 2

Gratitude Prompts – Karen Purves

How do you react when things go wrong in your life? Not just small things, but big things, HUGE THINGS? How you react an affect your physical health, your mental health and even your spiritual health.

When things go wrong, “Gratitude” is usually not the first choice we make as a reaction. But yet, my guest today specializes in helping us to see that “Gratitude” should be THE first choice we make in all situations. Good and bad.

Karen Purves was on the program, in January 2019, to talk about her book, “Gratitude Prompts.” You can go back to our archives and find episodes 430 and 431 to listen to her last interview.

She has had some, let’s say, interesting adventures in the last year and is back today to catch us up and also answer some more questions about how we can use “Gratitude” to help grow us spiritually.

She supports her clients in developing both gratitude and appreciation in their life. Because both of these qualities and emotions are the cornerstone for bringing into reality everything we desire.

Karen shares that “Gratitude is a lifestyle choice - rather than something you do in 2 minutes at the end of the day.”

You talk about how a person can get double dose of gratitude by actually doing something for someone else. How does that work?

And you encourage people to keep a journal of all things, right?

Segway into your book, “Gratitude Prompts!” How was that? Amen!

Tell us about “why” you wrote this book to begin with.

What kind of feedback have you received from the book?

Has this helped you in your Gratitude Journey as well?

How does someone use your book? Do they go by a calendar? Or front to back? How do they use your book to record their Gratitude Prompts?

There are other journals out there, what makes your book different?

There are 65 Gratitude topics in your book. Can you give us some examples?

You started a podcast, correct?

How can someone get a copy of your book?

Karen, it has been great catching up with again. If someone wanted to get more information on you, your book, your coaching, etc, how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you?

Folks, you have seen all the so called “experts” teaching about gratitude. Doing 30 days of this or posting 30 days of that. But Karen Purves LIVES gratitude. She has written an excellent book on the subject that will guide you through the process and prompt you to think about the “little things” that you should be grateful for. Hence the name, “Gratitude Prompts.” Amen!

You need to get this book. In fact, you need to get two copies. One for you and one to pass along to a friend. Remember, random acts of kindness, according to Karen, will benefit you TWICE OVER! Praise the Lord! “Whatsoever you sow, you shall reap.” If you want to reap gratitude, give someone a book on gratitude and plant that seed that will produce a harvest of gratitude back into your life! Amen!

Karen, thank you again for coming back on the program today.

Folks, go down below and click the links, right now, while you are thinking about it. Don’t let the devil try to tell you to do it later. Don’t listen to him, listen to me…do it now! Praise God!

For Karen Purves and myself, this is Pastor Bob reminding you to BE BLESSED IN ALL THAT YOU DO!

About your host

Profile picture for TS Wright

TS Wright

Hello. My name is TS Wright, and I am the voice of the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast and author/TV host of the God Centered Concept.

For the past 33 years I have been involved in Christian ministry. Ranging from ministry, teaching and coaching in both public and private high schools and college, I have worked with students, athletes and adults from all walks of life. I have been involved with a host of Christian organizations included but not limited to CRU, FCA and other outreach & church affiliated ministries. Also being ordained in Christian ministry and being both a biblical and historical scholar I have focused on Discipleship, Biblical truth, prophecy & historical theology. I have also authored 4 books, a journal and a devotional series which are all now in the editing phase.

In 2003 and 2004 the Lord cast a series of visions on my life as to what would become the God Centered Concept.

In 2016, the Lord called me to start writing.

In 2019, He cast another series of visions that has led me to now.

In 2023, I was led to starting Podcasting and through divine intervention found Pastor Bob. I became a frequent guest speaker on the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast and being led by the Lord I have taken ownership of the Podcast.

I welcome all of you who are a part of the Kingdom Cross Roads community as well as everyone who is just joining our community as we continue to work to advance the Gospel and spark a Great Harvest. By expanding our message to the NOW TV Network it is our prayer that we can maintain the same level of quality messages and engaging conversations that you have been accustomed to. We thank you for your commitment to this community and we ask for your support and prayers as we strive to glorify God in all that He calls us to do.
