The meaning of the name Philip means lover of horses. This is a very interesting name which surely must be associated with kindness and traveling! These two factors were very much associated with the Ministry of the Early Church, the leaders were often travelling, and seemed, from reading of the Scriptures, to be kind people. May the leaders of our Churches today be able to travel (when necessary), serve and be kind.
