Philemon, Onesimus, and Restorative Justice

The Book of Philemon is too often overlooked when reading through the New Testament. A mere 25 verses long, the short letter by the Apostle Paul to a wealthy leader of the Church in Colossae is easy to flip past when searching for Hebrews, James, or Revelation.

Running for Second Chances

For many men and women with criminal convictions, the road to move beyond the past and become contributing members of their communities is filled with hurdles and potholes.  In addition to the stigma associated with having a criminal record, there are numerous legal impediments that prevent these people from obtaining work licenses, voting in elections, or even advancing to job interviews.
