In this Wednesday Night Bible Study from Kitchener Baptist Church, we explore the foundational beginnings of the early church in Philippi, drawing primarily from Acts chapter 16. The sermon walks through the miraculous and often difficult journey of the Apostle Paul and Silas, illustrating that the church was built upon two primary pillars: the faithful preaching of the Word and endurance through persecution.
From the quiet riverside conversion of Lydia to the dramatic midnight earthquake that led to the salvation of the Philippian jailer, this message highlights how God works in unexpected ways. It serves as a powerful reminder that “faith cometh by hearing,” and that even in our darkest, most painful trials, we are called to praise God and trust completely in His sovereign plan.
