"Philippi is Paul's first destination outside Asia Minor, his first city to visit in Europe, and his first mission in a place where there was no Jewish community from which to begin preaching.

Some themes explored include the importance of community for followers of Christ, Christian joy in spite of persecution, the nature of Christian unity, the meaning of being "in Christ," and mutual hospitality.
