  • Philippians 1:9-11 The Fruit of Righteousness!

    Philippians Week 2 of the Philippians series:. The verse for this week’s sermon was about the fruit of righteousness. I used the generic Philippians cover and put the verse inside a pear. The pear seems to be universal symbol for a fruit. I think it’s because of its distinctive and easily recognizable shape. And what…
