It's a Choice to Rejoice: Learning How Gratitude Can Change Everything with Best-Selling Author, Mental Health Leader, & President of the American Association of Christian Counselors, Dr. Tim Clinton, Ep. 148

The Built Different Podcast with Zach Clinton

It’s easy to lose sight of the main priorities in our lives. Things such as stress, fear, comparison, and so much more can rob and distract us from the joy, contentment, and gratitude we were created for. However, Thanksgiving can be a great time to bring clarity to what’s most important and truly give thanks for those things. To help us do that very thing, my dad, Dr. Tim Clinton will be joining us today to share a unique perspective on how we can begin viewing this special annual celebration differently. Dr. Tim Clinton is the President of the American Association of Christian Counselors (AACC), the largest and most diverse Christian counseling association in the world as well as the Executive Director of the Global Center for Mental Health, Addiction, and Recovery at Liberty University. A renowned author, licensed professional counselor, and marriage and family therapist, Dr. Clinton is recognized as a world leader in mental health and relationship issues and spends much of his time working with Christian leaders and professional athletes. Throughout this conversation, Dr. Tim will give us an easy-to-remember meaning of the word “THANKS,” helping us understand the significance of the Thanksgiving holiday, recognizing the impact gratitude can have on our mental and spiritual health and wellness, as well as refocus our attitude and attention toward that of gratitude and praise. For remember, because of what God has already done by sending His Son to pay a substitutionary death in our place and rising again 3 days later, defeating sin and defeating death so we could spend eternity with Him - My friends, even if He does nothing else, He’s already done enough! For that we will always have something to be grateful for! So don’t eat too much, but also don’t miss the moments God has for you this holiday season! We pray you have a blessed and happy Thanksgiving!
