In this biblical study, Steve Gregg examines the book of Philemon to reconstruct the situation and draw clues about the story. While the book may not provide enough data to fully picture the story, Paul's prayers for Philemon suggest that he was known to him. Paul also prays for Philemon's faith sharing to become effective, indicating that effectiveness may not be automatic. Overall, the study offers insights into the historical context and themes of the biblical book.
