The Kingdom interrupts the grind and insists on shared celebration. 🌾 In Philippians 2, Paul stares down the threat of execution with joy. Against the Empire's toxic positivity, Kingdom joy is an act of spiritual defiance that refuses to let the grave win. 🪦 What can you celebrate today to remind the Empire it doesn't own you? 🌱
