East End Fellowship

A Bomb and a Balm

East End Fellowship

Derrick Collins returns to the pulpit to share a message from the entire letter to Philemon. The epistle, though brief, carries an "explosive" historical and theological weight, as it addresses reconciliation across significant cultural and class barriers, specifically between a slave owner named Philemon and his runaway slave, Onesimus. The text highlights Paul's appeal to Philemon to welcome Onesimus back not as property but as a "dear brother," an act considered revolutionary in the ancient world as well as now.
