"Prokope" (Philippians 1:12-30) | Bob Hallman

Prokope = To advance forward while beating your breast in grief

Pastor Bob gave this classic message at a Mentoring for Ministry Conference in 2008. Using Paul's example in Philippians 1:12-30, he expounds on the Greek word "prokope", explaining how the gospel was advancing because of Paul’s imprisonment! Paul’s focus was not his own advancement, but rather the advancement of the gospel!

Pastor Bob illustrates this truth with many fascinating ministry examples and encourages us to prokope through life's challenges as well! As you watch this video, you'll enjoy seeing the slideshow of pictures that relate to the vignettes he shares!

Philippians 1:12 - "Now I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel."

Philippians 1:25 - "Convinced of this, I know that I will remain, and I will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith..."
Advance = Prokope = “To drive forward”
Pro = “Forward or toward”
Kope = “To beat the breast in grief”
A nautical term: “To make headway in spite of stiff headwinds”
A military term: “To advance in the face of obstacles, dangers and great opposition”
