1. The Story of Joseph – Joseph is sold into slavery by his jealous brothers and ends up being taken to Egypt, where he becomes a household slave in the house of Potiphar. Through his faith and hard work, he rises to prominence and becomes the second-in-command to the pharaoh, ultimately saving the people of Egypt and his own family from famine.
2. The Story of the Israelites in Egypt – The Israelites were enslaved by the Egyptians for 400 years. God sends Moses to confront Pharaoh and demand the release of the Israelites, but Pharaoh refuses. After God sends ten plagues, including the death of the firstborn sons of Egypt, the Israelites are finally released from slavery and led to the Promised Land.
3. The Story of Paul and Onesimus – Paul meets Onesimus, a runaway slave who had fled his master Philemon. Paul teaches him about Jesus and sends him back to Philemon, asking him to forgive Onesimus and welcome him back as a brother in Christ.
4. The Story of the Prodigal Son – While not a story of slavery in the traditional sense, this parable tells the story of a son who squanders his inheritance and ends up working as a slave to feed pigs in a foreign land. He eventually realizes the error of his ways and returns to his father, who welcomes him back as a son rather than a slave.
