June 21: Luke 15:11-32 - “The Prodigal Son”
In one of the most moving stories in scripture, Jesus tells us about a Father with two sons. This is in a series of three parables he told in response being criticized for eating with "tax collectors and sinners". Some of us can relate to the young son who disobeyed the Father by deserting. Others of us may unknowingly be more like the eldest son who appeared loyal by staying home but still rejected the Father. Wherever we find ourselves, Jesus is calling us to treat others like a loving Father would treat his own son.
