The Little Fountain: Forgetting and Straining (Phil. 3:12-16)

The Christian life is oftentimes described as a journey. It is a lifelong, time-consuming, curvy road we walk down for our entire lives. In Philippians 3:12-16, Paul extends this metaphor out and talks about the one thing we should strive to do. Uniting the importance of "forgetting what is behind" with "straining forward to what is ahead," Paul is teaching us a fundamental discipline in living the Christian life.
