Join the 100-Day Gratitude Challenge — Acts of Resistance in a Fractured World

Registration closes April 2, 2026

Living gratefully is an act of resistance.

We are living in a time defined by fracture — in our communities, institutions, relationships, and ourselves. Fear and cruelty are pervasive, and the dominant narratives that surround us would have us believe that the world is irreparably broken.

These fractures are real. But we can heal the damage. Living gratefully defies the destructive cultural norms that profit from our discontent. By choosing to reorient to life with a grateful stance, we build the resilience and perspective needed to meet the challenges before us. We can rewrite the narrative.

This radical shift is only possible through daily practice. The 100-Day Gratitude Challenge will help you build the foundation needed to respond purposefully to the world and your beautiful, imperfect life. Through 100 grateful acts, you will transform the way you feel, live, and engage with what truly matters.

Transform your life. Repair the fractures. Join the challenge.

Kathy H.

Yes, there are trials and difficulties, but there is always community and the choice to see the many aspects of life to be grateful for. I am always richer when I turn and choose. Grateful Living gives me tools and reminders to stay in that mindset.

Weltha M.

I feel less alone in the world knowing there is a community of like-minded souls who recognize the depth and possibilities of living gratefully.

Paul W.

Living gratefully has helped me to pause.  It’s in the pause that I can decide how I want to be, how I want to show up.  I am imperfectly human yet the pause is a powerful tool in my life and I am grateful for it.

Linda S.

Moving from the concept of ‘gratitude’ which is transactional to a more spiritual practice of gratefulness has been transformative. It is truly a practice that will serve me for the rest of my life.

Join us in celebrating Br. David Steindl-Rast’s milestone 100th Birthday with a year of inspiring new educational programs designed to strengthen your practice.

A World War II survivor who had been drafted into the German army, Br. David engaged in acts of resistance against the Nazis first by abandoning his post and going underground, then by helping set up refugee camps and clear rubble from destroyed universities. He avoided capture and survived with the help of his Jewish mother and loving neighbors. After earning his Ph.D. at the University of Vienna, he went on to become a Benedictine monk, pioneer of interfaith dialogue, and the beloved Grandfather of Gratitude.
