The advocate

8 - 14 September 2019

One of the family

Philemon 1-21

Paul sends Onesimus, a runaway slave, back to his former master with an appeal that he is forgiven, freed, and welcomed into the family as a ‘beloved brother’.

This week's resources explore: a response to slavery; knowing when to be an advocate. Look out for ways to connect faith with everyday life.
