Bible Study Giving This time of year we have set aside to give thanks is a rich part of American history. I remember seeing pictures of the early settlers in America giving thanks. Only later in school did I understand the extent of their gratitude. They weren’t only thankful for the food and friends, they were thankful for their lives. The journey across the ocean was to unknown territory of unknown people who did not speak their language. For example, think about the Pi
