Philippians 1:1-2 - A Captive Joy
We normally think that Philippians is all about joy, and that is of course a major theme when it flashes forth 16 times. But it is sparked by the deeper themes of Paul’s letter. Philippians calls us to a particular kind of joy - a joy that was experience by Paul in Roman captivity facing a capital charge while his leadership was being contested. In this sermon we will look at acts 16 and see the journey Paul took to get to Philippi with his companions (Luke, Timothy, and Silas) including the Macedonia call by the Spirit of God. Secondly we will look at Paul's reception by 3 different people in Acts 16 when he arrives at Philippi. Finally, we will look at the occasion for this letter late in Paul's imprisonment at Rom (probably after 62 AD). My desire and prayer is that you will see the servant heart of Paul in fellowship with the Philippians Christians was based on making Christ the center of the letter and the motivation of His joy.

Acts 16 : Kites in a Hurricane
Whether we realize it or not we are all in the midst of a hurricane – not a hurricane that is destructive, but one that is transformational. I am talking about – God's worldwide renewal movement.Hurricanes are not safe. The winds from a hurricane are unpredictable and sometimes it blows us like little kites in a direction we do not want to go. Here in Acts 16 we see Paul and his companions follow the lead of the hurricane and allow their plans and strategies to be modified when the wind blows them in a new direction. If we to do the same – we will never cease to be blown away by what God will accomplish through us!
