We asked: Thanksgiving is an important holiday, as Scripture encourages believers to be thankful in all things. How should Christian retailers aid in the celebration of this significant national holiday, and how do inspirational products play a role in encouraging grateful hearts?

You answered: "Christian retailers need to promote the importance of this holiday to encourage all Christians to reach out to your fellow neighbor, friends and family during this time of celebration of food and fellowship. There are individuals and families needing help and encouragement especially during these difficult economic times. They need to be remembered that Christ is working through all people to reach out to one another for support, love and guidance. Thanksgiving is the best time to express this love and fortitude toward each other. Our inspirational gift products you find in Christian stores are perfect tools to express this love and concern. The messages reflect the love God intended to share with one another."
