What good is Christianity? In a world facing increasing division, economic disparity, and racial tension, it seems like Christianity is more of a problem than a solution to our problems. But in the letter to Philemon, we find that at the heart of the mission of Jesus is a community that is committed to truth-telling, reconciliation and unity. In order to experience this kind of community, we have to first move from being me-centered, focused only on our individual happiness, to we-centered, buckled in and committed to a diverse community of people marked by the belonging that Jesus won for us us.
