It is about many things in our faith, and the opening words show what Paul is sending us through the Holy Spirit - grace and peace (1.2).
Also verse 9 in the first chapter shows us Paul's desire for the Philippian church and for us:
And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment
Another Answer:
Philippi in the 1st Century A.D. was populated with a diverse group - Asian, Greek and Roman. The people, therefore, would of had little in common. These different 'races,' having the usual different social ranks and religious loyalties - that is until Paul introduced them to the teachings of Jesus Christ. The primary teaching was that each of them were equal in the body of Christ (His Church) and that all were sinners saved by God's grace. They were to follow the example of Jesus and humble themselves as He did and be united in the love of Christ and His Father. Basically, the Church of God at Philippi was being taught to break the rules of men: 'There is neither Jew, nor Greek, their is neither slave nor free...for you are all one in Christ Jesus' (Galatians 3:28). Philippi became one of the most integrated places in the Mediterranean world.
Paul, though in prison, taught the prominent theme of 'joy' of serving Jesus.

How did Luke end the Acts of the Apostles?
In the Acts of the Apostles, Luke does not tell us the story of all the apostles. A few are mentioned here and there. Luke concentrates mainly on the Apostle Peter and the Apostle Paul. The latter part of the book is the Apostle Paul's part in spreading Christianity, and so Luke ends the book by telling us that Paul is still under the Roman hand, but is not in prison, perse, but has rented his own house, receiving all who come to him preaching the kingdom of God and teaching the things of Christ.

What is the theme in Paul's letter to the Thessalonians?
The theme of Galatians is that the Law is no longer in effect. We are in the age of grace and salvation is by faith in Jesus Christ, not in keeping the law. Christ fulfilled the law and now we don't need this to reveal to us our sins, We as Christians have the Holy Spriit dwelling within us to convict us and teach us how we should live. Ch5:1 tells us we have liberty in Christ. Not to sin, but to be free to live for Christ. Santification is through the Spirit not the law. I hope this might help someone
