Bible 12

Personal Letter - Rewrite this letter by highlighting key themes (thankfulness, prayer, Christ is ____, how you’ve lived out faith, etc.) as a personal letter to your family, youth group, or church.  Make it as if you are writing it. You will have 2 in-class days.  This assignment can be completed by hand (if you have legible handwriting) or via Google Docs and sharing it with Mr. Strahm.

*Part 1 – List the components of the letter that you will be writing.  You should be aiming for 8-10 items.

(Examples: Intro, thanks for ____, life and mission update, emphasis on Christ, list some key themes you want to discuss that Paul highlighted, etc.)

*Part 2 – with this list as your guide, rewrite Philippians as a letter that you are writing.  It should be personal enough that it sounds like you wrote it while also covering enough content as Paul did in his Philippians letter.  You should have a corresponding paragraph for each item on your list from part 1, making your letter 8-10 paragraphs in length.

As this assignment serves as a culmination of our time in Philippians, it is important to assess your understanding of Paul and your ability to "modernize" it for your context.  Due to this, the assignment is worth 30% of your quarter grade.
