Origin stories are popular these days. Today, we look at the origin story of the church that met in Philemon's home, which is better known as the Colossian church. We will focus on the two main human means God used for the birth of this church: Paul (Acts 19:8-10) Epraphras (Colossians 1:6-8; 4:12-13) We can be encouraged by how God uses our lives and His word through us in ways that go beyond what we often are aware of. Small things can lead to significant results! Let us be faithful in the days of seemingly small things. You can watch this message here.

This message introduces the Paul's shortest NT letter. It is often neglected and yet contains much that is edifying and encouraging! The Senders: From Paul & Timothy (v. 1a) The Recipients: To Philemon, Apphia, Archippus, & the Church (vv. 1b-2) The Grace We All Need: From God our Father & the Lord Jesus Christ (v. 3) Mark found Malcolm MacLean's excellent chapter on this passage especially helpful in outlining and preparing this message.

This Sunday we are blessed with a message from Pastor Cho on the Book of Philemon. We witness a letter from the Apostle Paul to Philemon that demonstrates how being forgiven in Christ changes us and our relationships with other people. Regardless of where we are in this life, because of His forgiveness, we can radically forgive and love one another with whole hearts. For through Jesus, we are all equally blessed and loved.
New Testament Reading 2 Corinthians 5:11-6:2
In a world fractured by division and personal preference, Christ builds something enduring and indivisible: His Church. In this sermon we are drawn to the unity of the Spirit and the bond of peace that marks the true Church-one body, one hope, one Lord. Explore what it mans to belong to the communion of saints, where grace is not just received but shared, and where we are called to walk in humility, patience, and love. Through the Spirit, Christ gathers, protects, and preserves His people, making the Church a place of strength, stability, and belonging. Are you walking worthy of your calling in the body of Christ?Time:MorningMinister:Mr. Brendan StamperTexts:Philemon

Are you buried in debt—not financial, but spiritual? The good news is that Jesus paid it all. In this powerful and grace-filled conclusion to the book of Philemon, Pastor Mike Massey teaches verses 17–25 in our Daily Verse By Verse Christian podcast, reminding us that the debt of sin we owe has already been paid in full by Jesus Christ. This 10-minute daily Bible study helps listeners experience God's love, apply God's Word, and grow in biblical understanding—one verse at a time.In these final verses, we see the Apostle Paul pleading with Philemon to accept Onesimus, a runaway slave who has come to faith in Christ, not as a slave, but as a beloved brother in the Lord. Paul writes, “If you count me as a partner, receive him as you would me.” This powerful statement mirrors the heart of the gospel: Jesus stands in our place, and we are received by the Father as if we were Christ Himself—because of His righteousness, not ours.
Here we have a charming intimate letter written by Paul to a dear friend. Philemon's slave Onesimus... had run away from him and come under Paul's influence in Rome. He not only became a Christian but became very dear to Paul. - From the introduction
Evening lessons: Psalms 20, 21; Esther 4; Philemon. May the Lord hear you in the day of trouble, the Name of the God of Jacob defend you.
Arguably one of the most influential letters Paul wrote.

Scripture: Philemon 1-3 Focus: Does your life demonstrate to others the life-changing power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ? Speaker: Matt Thornton Date: July 6, 2025
In this powerful exploration of the book of Philemon, we're challenged to confront the reality of when life doesn't go according to plan. Through the lens of three characters - Onesimus, Philemon, and Paul - we see how the gospel transforms our responses to unexpected situations. The central message revolves around repentance and forgiveness, core elements of our faith that we're called to practice in tangible ways. As we reflect on Onesimus' journey of owning his mistakes and Philemon's call to forgive deeply, we're reminded of our own need for both repentance and forgiveness in our daily lives. This message encourages us to be ministers of reconciliation, actively participating in healing broken relationships just as Christ reconciled us to God. It's a profound reminder that our faith isn't just theological, but practical - calling us to live out the gospel in our interactions with others, even when it's uncomfortable or challenging.

Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, where every day is an opportunity to gather around the Scriptures and be reminded of God's unfailing love. In today's episode for July 3rd, 2025, your host Hunter invites you into a journey through Isaiah 6 and 7, 2 Chronicles 26 and 27, and the book of Philemon. Together, we'll witness Isaiah's transformative vision of God's glory, reflect on the rise and fall of King Uzziah, and listen to Paul's heartfelt appeal to Philemon—a call to radical love and laying down our rights for the sake of others. Hunter encourages us to allow these passages to wash over our lives, offering rest, insight, and a fresh perspective on what it means to live out the gospel each day. Whether you're joining for the first time or returning as a long-time listener, get ready to experience Scripture in community, prayer, and hope—reminding us all that we are loved, and called to participate in God's work of making all things new. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Lay down your rights for love's sake. The only way this world is going to be made right is if someone puts aside their rights and offers love instead. That is the request that Paul makes of Philemon. Onesimus was Philemon's slave who had run away from him, and in God's providence both men had been led to the Lord by Paul. Now Paul is sending Onesimus back to Philemon, who by law still owns him. In this moment, Paul is challenging Philemon to discover the depths of the gospel—the radical extent to which the gospel transforms individuals and societies. Paul is reminding Philemon, and us, that the only way this world will be made right is if people put aside their rights and extend love instead. Legally, Philemon has every right over Onesimus, but Jesus has shown us a better way. Jesus set us free by giving up his own rights and becoming a servant, a slave, so that we might be set free by God. Paul, in Philippians chapter two, says that Jesus “gave up his divine privileges. He took the humble position of a slave and was born as a human being.” Jesus gave up what was rightfully his in order to set the world free. That is the only way broken people and this broken world are made right—by the man who gave up his rights. Now, Paul is calling Philemon—and he is calling you and me—to follow this example. This isn't just a word for an ancient slave owner, but for every one of us who is trying to live in the light of Christ. There's no greater demonstration of love than to lay down our lives, our privileges, and our rights for another. When we do, we participate in the very life of the One who is making all things new. That's the prayer I have for my own soul today—that I would join Christ in learning how to lay aside my rights, my privileges, in the service of others. It's my prayer for my family—my wife, my daughters, my son. And it's my prayer for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Jesus is my shepherd. You have called me by my name into the life of the Beloved. Here in the stillness, I remember that I am not alone. I belong to you and to the great communion of saints and sinners held together in your love. Remind me, Lord, that every breath is grace. Every encounter is a chance to give what I have received—mercy without measure. When I forget who I am, when I lose my way, lead me again to still waters. Restore my soul, renew my hope. Reroute me in the joy of simply being yours. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen.

A Prayer to be Refreshing Reference: Today's episode was inspired by the words of Paul in Philemon 1:7:"For I have derived much joy and comfort from your love, my brother, because the hearts of the saints have been refreshed through you." We reflect on the story of Philemon and Onesimus and how Paul’s bold appeal for reconciliation was grounded in Philemon’s well-known love for the saints. This devotional reminds us that our faith should lead to radical love and relationships transformed by the gospel. Prayer: Father, I pray that you would give me a heart for others and that I would grow in my love for those you have put in my life. Please show me today who you want me to reach out to to encourage and refresh, please help me to be willing to give generously from all that you have blessed me with, that others might experience the joy and comfort that comes from you. Amen. LINKS: Follow Everyday Prayers @everydayprayerspodcast Get today's devotion and prayer in written form to keep for future use! Support the ministry with your $5 monthly gift through Patreon.

Today we'll read the account of Jonah, the reluctant prophet. The Lord commands Jonah to go to Ninevah and warn them of their impending destruction. Jonah turns to go in the completely opposite direction, later saying that he didn't want to go because he knew the Lord would have compassion on those whom Israel saw as detestable adversaries. As you hear this account, keep in mind that in the end it is most likely that Jonah is the one recording what happened, revealing that he was eventually aware of his sinful heart toward those living in ignorance of the Lord's ways.Jonah - 1:11 . Jonah 2 – 5:00 . Jonah 3 – 6:56 . Jonah 4 – 8:59 . Philemon - 12:21 . Psalm 96 - 16:13 .
