Under Construction: Lessons From a Pumpkin Patch

Imprisoned in Rome, Apostle Paul wrote this “Letter of Joy” to the Philippians, encouraging them that they could always experience joy and contentment even in the most arduous situation if only they would unite and humbly serve one another. By living his life passionately for Jesus, Paul urges all readers to imitate him; to forget what is behind, and push toward the goal of heavenly rewards in Christ Jesus.

Followers of Jesus are called to become more like him in every part of our lives: our thoughts, our words, our actions, and our attitudes.
