Description
Forgiven. Reconciled. Received.
Philemon: A Guided Journey Through Scripture is a 32-page downloadable Bible study journal designed to help you slow down, engage God’s Word, and consider how the gospel transforms identity, relationships, forgiveness, and reconciliation.
Rather than simply giving you all the answers, this guided journey equips you to study the entire letter of Philemon for yourself using MTSM’s Pray–Read–Ask–Pray method and P.E.T.S. Bible study questions.
As you journey through Philemon, you will explore what it means to:
- Allow faith and love to refresh others
- Use influence through love rather than control
- See fellow believers through their identity in Christ
- Receive another Christian as a beloved brother or sister
- Pursue forgiveness and reconciliation faithfully
- Advocate for someone who is vulnerable
- Face wrongdoing, responsibility, and relational cost honestly
- Practice willing obedience shaped by the gospel
Inside this downloadable journal, you’ll find:
- An introduction to the purpose of the journal
- A refresher on the Pray–Read–Ask–Pray Bible study method
- A guide to using P.E.T.S. for personal Bible study
- Background information about Paul, Philemon, Onesimus, Apphia, and Archippus
- An explanation of why Philemon was written
- A simple outline of the entire letter
- Prayer-journaling pages
- Scripture-memory guidance and recommended passages
- Three studies covering the entire book of Philemon
- Generous space for observations, questions, application, and prayer
- QR codes connecting you with free MTSM commentary, historical background, people profiles, answers to difficult questions, and additional study resources
- A closing reflection celebrating what you have learned and helping you continue growing
The three passage studies are:
- Philemon 1–7: A Faith That Refreshes Others
- Philemon 8–16: No Longer a Slave, but a Brother
- Philemon 17–25: Receive Him as You Would Receive Me
The connected online resources provide additional help with important questions raised by Philemon, including:
- Does the Bible condone slavery in Philemon?
- What does “no longer as a slave, but as a beloved brother” mean?
- Why did Paul send Onesimus back to Philemon?
- Does forgiveness require full restoration of a relationship?
- What does it mean to welcome someone as you would welcome Paul?
- Why did Paul offer to pay Onesimus’s debt?
These resources are designed to supplement—not replace—your own reading and study of Scripture.
This guided journey works well for personal devotions, one-on-one discipleship, couples, and small groups when the appropriate license has been purchased.
If you are new to studying the Bible for yourself, the journal will also direct you to MTSM’s free Guided Journey Through Jonah, where you can receive additional instruction in the Pray–Read–Ask–Pray method before beginning Philemon.

This is more than a reading plan.
It is an invitation to listen to God through His Word, receive fellow believers through their identity in Christ, pursue gospel-shaped reconciliation, and become more like Jesus.
