Philippians Sermon Series

When personalities clash and egos get inflated, life at church can go very quickly pear shaped.  If you were a pastor locked in jail for your faith, what would you write to a church where people were at war?  At Holy Trinity, we are reading Paul's letter to the church in Philippi, a multi-cultural, multi-faith town, when the news of the death of the Son of God for the sins of hs people and his resurrection from the dead is causing waves.  His church is growing, but not without problems.  We will learn from Paul's letter how to avoid falling into the same trap.
