When Faith Comes To Town - Philippi


When faith [in Jesus the Christ] came to Philippi it provided a drastic contrast to the culture at large. 

Leaders were persecuted.  The movement was legitimized.  Classes merged.  Tradition accomodated and transformed culture.  God resided at table top not on a mountain top. 

Plain and simple...people were transformed into the image of Christ, and began filling thier community with the presence of Christ, so that many could find the way back to God.  What a great model. 

Acts 18
