Show Notes

What happens when the radical message of the Gospel collides with the everyday realities of social status and broken relationships? In this episode of Seek Go Create, Tim Winders dives into Paul's brief yet powerful letter to Philemon, where a runaway slave returns—not as a fugitive, but as a beloved brother. Discover how true reconciliation moves from lofty theory to life-changing action right at the doorstep of a first-century house church. If you’re curious about forgiveness, restoring relationships, and the revolutionary impact of faith, this episode is for you.

“In Christ, a slave and a master become brothers.” - Tim Winders
