Does the MTV Generation Lack the Pilgrim Spirit?

This Thanksgiving, my prayer is that all Americans would come together with a Pilgrim spirit, in an attitude of joy and thankfulness for the blessings bestowed on us by our Creator. The MTV survey is an incredible reminder that what we buy our children will not really contribute to their long-term happiness. If, however, we impart to them a spirit of humble gratitude and love for God they will undoubtedly experience the happiness and joy that eludes so many others.
