Letter to Philemon; a novel of a man's search for faith

This is the story of Onesimus, obedient slave to Philemon of Colossae until a growing awareness of his bondage drove him to open rebellion against the family he loved and the idolatrous religion that failed him when he needed it most. Against the dramatic background of ancient Asia Minor, the authors have created a swift-moving story of Christianity's early years and the history-changing events that made pagans into believers - and martyrs - of the new faith. Letter to Philemon is a timeless tale of a rebellious youth who ran from false gods to none...until he met a man named Paul who taught him how to forgive, to love, and to live again.
