Philippi in Acts 16
fih-LIP-eye
This place shows up in Acts 16:12: “and from there to Philippi, which is a city of Macedonia, the foremost of the district, a Roman colony. We were staying some days in this…” The Bible is not talking about a sticker. It is talking about a real place in a real place.
Acts 16:12
“and from there to Philippi, which is a city of Macedonia, the foremost of the district, a Roman colony. We were staying some days in this city.”
What kids can learn
When you hear philippi in Acts, remember the sentence around it. God put this place in the story on purpose.
