Episode Description

I’ve always loved Thanksgiving for its simplicity—no gifts, no pressure, just a table and gratitude. But the one year I sat alone at mine, I learned more about grace than any other holiday I’ve lived through.


This is the story of how a box at my door reminded me I wasn’t as alone as I thought… and it helped lead my family and me back to each other.
