The Prodigal Son is a great story told by Jesus. We can often relate to the younger son and his decision to wander away for what looked to be a better life. But there is more to this story. What about the older son? He has done everything on the list of "to do's". He has remained in his fathers house. Yet, is he just as far away from the father as the prodigal son was in that distant land? Dr. Gene Curtis, Luke 15:25-32

Sometimes we leave everything that we truly desire because we lose perspective. Our lenses become smeared with the lies of Satan and we walk away from the freedom and gifts of our Heavenly Father and go to slavery in a foreign land. But when that humbling moment comes and we return to Him, there is joy. We are always welcome to return home. Pastor Jerry Beres, Luke 15:1-24

Even though injustice exists and bad things still happen, Jesus tells us to never give up. We know for sure that regardless of circumstances, we have the promise that God will one day come back and justice will be swift. In the meantime, Jesus wants people who are engaged with Him through prayer. Speaker Mike Allison, Luke 18
