Peace Gets Personal | Philemon 8-25

May 25, 2025

Have you ever been hurt by someone—and then asked to forgive them? Maybe even to reconcile with them?

In this sermon from Seymour Christian Church, we explore the powerful message of Philemon: a short, personal letter from Paul that reveals a gospel big enough to heal real wounds, repair broken trust, and restore relationships. It's not just about grace in theory—it's grace in action.

Through the stories of Paul, Philemon, and Onesimus, we unpack:

👉🏼Why peace doesn't push—it invites

👉🏼How grace redefines broken relationships

👉🏼Why real reconciliation always costs something

👉🏼And how peace can ultimately point people to Jesus

Whether you're carrying hurt or learning to forgive, this message offers both challenge and hope. It's a timely reminder that the gospel is not just personal—it's deeply relational.
