Prison Letters
Freedom Through Faith, Even in Chains
Some of the most powerful messages in the Bible weren’t written from a place of comfort—but from a prison cell. The Apostle Paul, while in chains, wrote letters to the churches to encourage them to stand firm in their faith, find joy in Christ, and live in the freedom of God’s grace.
In this four-week series, we will explore the books of Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, and Philemon, learning how Paul’s words to the early church still challenge and inspire us today. Even when facing suffering, Paul showed us that true freedom comes from Christ—not our circumstances.

Week 1: "Who Am I? Finding Your True Identity in Christ" (Ephesians 1:3-8, 2:8-10, 4:1-6, 6:10-18)
Our Identity Isn’t Found in the World—It’s Found in Christ
We often define ourselves by success, opinions, or achievements—but Paul reminds us in Ephesians that our identity is rooted in who God says we are. We are chosen, saved by grace, and equipped to stand strong in faith. This message challenges us to let go of false identities and embrace the freedom of knowing we belong to Christ.
✅ Key Themes: Identity in Christ, salvation by grace, standing firm in faith
Week 2: "Unshakable Joy in Christ" (Philippians 4:4-9)
Joy That Can’t Be Taken Away
Paul wrote Philippians while in prison, yet his letter overflows with joy. He teaches us that true joy isn’t based on our circumstances, but on Christ. No matter what we face—hardships, struggles, or uncertainty—we can live with peace and confidence because our joy is unshakable in Him.
✅ Key Themes: Joy beyond circumstances, trusting God’s plan, choosing gratitude
Week 3: "Living in Christ – Putting Off the Old, Putting On the New" (Colossians 3:1-17)
The Old Life is Gone—The New Has Come
In Colossians, Paul reminds believers that, because of Jesus, they must leave behind their old sinful ways and embrace a new life in Christ. Just like changing out of worn-out clothes, we must put on compassion, humility, patience, and love. This message challenges us to live differently because we belong to Jesus.
✅ Key Themes: Transformation, leaving sin behind, living like Christ
Week 4: "Forgiven to Forgive" (Philemon 1:4-20)
The Gospel Transforms How We Treat Others
In Philemon, Paul advocates for a runaway slave, Onesimus, urging Philemon to forgive him and welcome him as a brother in Christ. This letter is a powerful reminder that God’s forgiveness toward us should change how we forgive others. Just as Christ has forgiven us, we are called to show grace—even when it’s difficult.
✅ Key Themes: Forgiveness, reconciliation, grace in action
