As Thanksgiving draws near, it’s important to take a moment to rest and reflect on what we have to be grateful for this past year. Whether that be family, a job and especially the sacrifice of Christ on our behalf, practicing gratitude is good for the soul.
For most of us, Thanksgiving involves getting together with family and friends, perhaps some that you haven’t seen since last year. While everyone might not always agree around the table, there’s nothing like gathering together in the living room to watch a good movie to keep in perspective what truly matters.
After the leftover turkey has been put away and the pumpkin pie eaten, here are five great movies on Great American Pure Flix that the whole family will enjoy.
