Religion has a long history of inspiring gratitude in its adherents. Despite the consistent link between religion and gratitude, only a few studies have begun to provide a deeper understanding of gratitude specifically toward God. Using qualitative (Study 1), cross-sectional (Study 2), daily experience (Study 3), and experimental data (Study 4), I sought to close the gap by (a) attaining a better sense of the general importance of gratitude to God among those are religiously affiliated, (b) psychologically disentangling motivation to pay gratitude back versus forward, and (c) evaluating how people show gratitude to God, (d) all in comparison to interhuman gratitude. I found several consistent findings across studies. Those with a religious affiliation consistently reported high endorsement of gratitude to God. They strongly endorsed statements about being motivated to pay gratitude to God back and forward, and the motivation to pay gratitude to God forward was consistently higher than motivation to pay gratitude forward from any other interhuman target (e.g., close other, authority figure). Gratitude to God consistently predicted engagement in specific religious behaviors, but also more general character development and prosocial behavior. The motivation to pay gratitude to God forward more consistently mediated these effects than the motivation to pay gratitude to God back. In most cases, gratitude to God predicted these outcomes above and beyond interhuman gratitude. These results highlight the importance of gratitude to God in the lives of those with a religious affiliation, the differences between gratitude experienced toward God in comparison to interhuman gratitude, and the potential for gratitude to God to motivate religious behavior, character development, and prosocial behavior.
