For the month of September on Sanctuary First our new theme is 'Complex Characters' where we are diving into the different characters of the Bible. The Bible, like a busy pub at closing time, or a heaving post office queue a few days before the Christmas delivery cut off, or a beach on the one day of summer it hasn’t rained, is full of characters. And like the pub, post office, and beach some of these characters are somewhat… complex.

The first character we are having a look at is: Philemon. Here Rob Rawson perfoms a monologue written by Laura Digan all about a mysterioua letter devlivered to Philemon about a runaway slave!
