This book presents a verse by verse study of the Apostle Paul's letter to the
church at Philippi. Paul wrote this letter during a particularly difficult
time in his life. He was in the custody of the Roman Empire, awaiting trial
on a charge of capital offense. During this difficult time Paul continued his
ministry, using his circumstance to reach out to those around him—including
the elite Praetorian Guard. His imprisonment even enabled him to reach into
Caesar's own household, presenting them with the good news of salvation. It
is in this time of hardship and service that Paul writes to his friends in
Philippi. These are friends the Apostle had made years earlier when his first
missionary journey brought him to the city of Philippi. Now, he sends his
thanks to them for their continued support, and encourages them in the face
of the distressing news they had undoubtedly heard about the Apostle's
imprisonment. There is much we can learn from this letter. Paul provides an
example of how to live with adversity and shows us what God can achieve in
conditions we might believe are hopeless and without purpose.
There are sixteen studies in this book that cover every verse in the letter
to the Philippians. These studies provide a guide suitable for use in group
or personal Bible study.
