As we stand at the threshold of a new year, this message from the book of Philemon challenges us to confront strained relationships through the lens of the gospel. Using the story of Paul, Philemon, and Onesimus, we explore God’s call to forgiveness, reconciliation, and restored relationships. The sermon reminds us that all have sinned, that forgiveness is not optional for followers of Jesus, and that reconciliation requires both obedience and wisdom. By looking to the cross and examining our own hearts, we are invited to let go of bitterness, pursue healing, and enter the new year committed to living out Christlike love in our families, workplaces, and communities.
