Fields of the Wood is a Ten Commandments Park located near Murphy, NC. The park started with the ten commandments displayed in cement on the side of a hill with cement steps going up to the top where a large replica of the bible stands and references the first two commandments. I first found out about the park from a man I met in Pigeon Forge in 2019. He had adopted a personal ministry to get bible verses into homes. As a farmer, he used his free time during the year to pour cement sheep and write bible verses on the sides of the sheep. He would paint the sheep and take them to Fields of the Wood and place them along the commandments all the way up the hill. He noticed that they would go missing and thought this was great. If people were taking them home then bible verses were getting into these homes. It seems that now he is working with the park and they will give you a sheep when you make a donation to the park. I just missed him this year by two weeks. I thought he always went on Thanksgiving, but he jumped the gun this year and went earlier. For some reason he is no longer writing verses on the sheep, but the park gives you a lot of literature, etc., with the sheep which details his ministry.
