Growing Is God's Plan (1 of 10)
David Cawston
Philippians 1:1-11
Introduction:
1:1 Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus,
To all the saints in Christ Jesus at Philippi, together with the overseers and deacons:
2 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
History of the Philippians Church
The church at Philippi was established as a result of Paul's Macedonian vision. He saw a man from Macedonia Acts 16:9-10
9 During the night Paul had a vision of a man of Macedonia standing and begging him, "Come over to Macedonia and help us." NIV
