THE SLAVE, An Incredible Journey,” is the story of a man whose name appears only twice in Scripture. He was a slave of a leader in the Early Church, but ran away and ended up in Rome where,he meets and comes under the infl uence of the Apostle Paul. Later, Paul sends him back to his master. The name of the slave, Onesimus, means “useful.” Paul notes that Onesimus was useful to him and would be useful to his Lord. Therein lies a story, an almost unbelievable story.
