The church in Philippi was, in many respects, a church like any other in any place or time. There were no great doctrinal nor moral problems there; yet, it was not without its difficulties. It faced opposition from outside and there were threats to unity from within. Paul wrote showing the need to live in a way that was 'worthy of the gospel'. Paul wrote to them longing for the church to grow, and as such, what he spoke then speaks now to us today.
