Jesus and the Kingdom - Week 11

This is week 11 of our series Jesus & The Kingdom where we are unpacking the parables of Jesus. This week Mark Stephenson covers the first half of the most well-known parable of them all, The Parable of the Prodigal Son. Even though we may think we are familiar with this story, the deeper we dig, the true message of the story gets revealed. This story is about all three characters, not just the younger son, and he isn’t the only one who becomes a prodigal by the end. What if Jesus is trying to teach us that God is the main prodigal and always has been throughout history. If you’ve ever wandered away from God or felt the heavy wait of shame in your life, this message is for you. Let’s watch and learn how God the Father and Jesus the Son are the true prodigals.
