Philippi: Paul Preaches In

From there we went to the Roman colony of Philippi, the leading city of that district of Macedonia. And we stayed there several days. …

When the uproar had ended, Paul sent for the disciples. And after encouraging them, he said goodbye to them and left for Macedonia. …

As you are aware, we had already endured suffering and shameful treatment in Philippi. But in the face of strong opposition, we were bold in our God to speak to you the gospel of God.
