Living Above Your Circumstances

Paul and his team planted a church in Philippi on the 2nd missionary journey, amidst great opposition from the local authorities (Acts 16). A small group of believers was formed, including the jailor and his household who had been guarding the jail cell after Paul and Silas had been beaten and imprisoned. The Philippian church was possibly meeting in the house of Lydia (Acts 16:40), a female businesswoman.
