The church planted in Philippi

Paul went to Philippi. He met Lydia at the place of prayer. She responded to the Gospel message.

They took Paul and Silas to the magistrates, who beat and imprisoned them. Overnight God set them free through an earthquake. The jailer was saved and the magistrates escorted Paul and Silas out of the city.
