Not much is known about Philip the Evangelist. What is known, however, is a challenge to us and our personal walk with the Lord and the outworking of our ministries. Philip's life and ministry speak to us about the issue of success, the leading and timing of the Lord, and faithfulness even when unnoticed. I have been challenge as I have studied the brief details of the life of this important man of God. The goal of this study is to examine the life of this deacon in the Jerusalem church, and to see what his life and ministry teaches us about our service and personal walk with the Lord. I trust Philip's life will be an inspiration.

Appraisals of early Christian leaders in Acts typically neglect or minimize the contribution of Philip the evangelist. This study establishes Philip's pivotal place in the overall structure of Luke-Acts, stressing the significance of his roles as the first missionary to the marginalized Samaritians and 'God-fearers' of a charismatic prophet in the tradition of Moses and Elijah, and a versatile servant in both domestic/diaconal and itinerant/kerygmatic capacities. This investigation utilizes close literary analysis of the Lukan narrative informed by social-historical assessments of the ancient Mediterranean world to create a comprehensive, multidimensional portrait of Philip in Acts.
