In this message, Pastor Tony tracks the expansion of the early church from Antioch to Philippi, marking the first time the gospel reached European soil. Drawing from Acts 15 and 16, he highlights how God uses “flawed human beings” and strategic missionary teams to carry the message of Jesus across 1,200 miles of diverse terrain. The sermon details the recruitment of young Timothy and the conversion of three very different individuals: the wealthy businesswoman Lydia, a freed slave girl, and a desperate Roman jailer.
