Today, Pastor Jack teaches that real love, the kind of love that God has for us, is not a feeling, it's a choice. It's an eternal love, regardless of emotions, fading physical beauty, or sickness. It's not based on happiness, but to make us holy through service, and adoration. The post Parable Of The Prodigal – 1B first appeared on Pastor Jack Hibbs.

11am The Parables of the Kingdom Luke 15:11-32

Is the story of the prodigal son really just about one wayward child, or does it hold a deeper message for all of us? Join me, as we navigate the often overlooked emotions and themes surrounding the elder brother in this classic parable. While the tale has traditionally spotlighted the younger son who strayed, our conversation today challenges that narrow interpretation, unveiling a narrative rich with lessons on jealousy, misunderstanding, and the transformative power of forgiveness.We'll explore how the elder son mirrors the Pharisees of Jesus' time, trapped in resentment and unable to rejoice in redemption. Through our discussion, you'll see how the father's patient love extends to both siblings, prompting us to consider our own responses to grace and mercy. This episode encourages us to reimagine our worship, moving beyond rigid religious practices to embrace a more joyous and inclusive celebration of faith.Join us as we rediscover what this parable really says about forgiveness, maturity, and the love that always runs toward us.Key Takeaways:The Parable of the Prodigal Son is about two sons, not just one, highlighting the different attitudes and spiritual conditions they represent.The first son's journey from estrangement to homecoming reflects personal redemption and grace as he returns to his father's embrace.The second son's anger and misunderstanding symbolize internalized religious stagnation and refusal to rejoice in spiritual celebrations.Parallels between the parable's second son and modern-day religious leaders who resist participative and dynamic worship experiences.A strong call for believers to break free from religious stagnation and join in celebration, reviving their relationship with God.

Today, on Karl and Crew, we wrapped up our weekly theme of “Fathers in the Bible” by discussing the greatest father of all, God. We turned to Luke 15:11-24 to analyze the parable of the Prodigal Son, as it relates to the rejoice and warm embrace our Heavenly Father has waiting for us whenever we come to Him. Our Heavenly Father wants an intimate and devoted relationship with us all, but we have to cast away the things of the world and submit to Him as the Prodigal son did when returning to his father. We also heard from Anne Graham Lotz, who shared her memorable moments with her Dad, Billy Graham, before his passing. Anne is known for her deep biblical wisdom, as she speaks globally and was called “the best preacher in the family” by her late father. We also had Karl pop in from Burundi, East Africa, to provide us with an update on what’s going on there. Then we heard a testimony from one of the listeners in the Boom Crew, Josiah.

Few things test a parent's heart like watching a child walk away—from your home, your voice, and from the truth you've spent years planting. It's a pain only God fully understands. And it's a pain He speaks into. The story of the prodigal son is not just about rebellion—it's about relentless love. And if you're standing in that place today, God sees you.Our springboard for today's discussion is:"But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and felt compassion..." — Luke 15:20The prodigal's father didn't chase his son into rebellion—but he never stopped watching the road.If your son or daughter has wandered—into sin, doubt, addiction, unbelief—you are not alone. And you are not powerless. God is not finished writing their story.In seasons of rebellion, your role is prayerful presence. Keep the door open, keep your heart soft, and keep your knees on the floor. You don't need to argue your child back to Jesus. You love them, speak truth when the Spirit leads, and trust that what God began in them, He is able to complete.And maybe today, the prodigal child is not a teenager—but an adult. Maybe the distance has been years, not months. Hear this: God is not bound by time. He's not restricted by seasons. And His Word never returns void.You may not see it yet, but the Father is working. Even now. In the pigpen. In the silence. In the questions your child won't say out loud. He's stirring. Drawing. Loving.You're not a failure—you're a watchman. And heaven still hears your prayers.Question of the Day:What promise from God are you holding onto for your prodigal child?Mini Call to Action:Write your child's name on a card. Speak a specific Scripture over them out loud today. Declare it in faith, even if your heart is hurting.Let's Pray:Father, I place my child into Your hands. I trust that Your love reaches further than my voice ever could. Call them home. Speak to them in the silence. And strengthen me as I wait. In Jesus' name, amen.Let's Get To Work!Don't give up.

Send us a textIn today's episode, I'm joined by author Phyllis Gobbell, who brings a rich blend of literary insight and Southern storytelling charm. A retired college English professor, Phyllis has written across genres—from gripping true crime (An Unfinished Canvas, A Season of Darkness) to immersive mystery fiction. Her latest novel, Prodigal, released in November 2024, is a contemporary retelling of the biblical parable The Prodigal Son. Set in a small Southern town much like the one she grew up in, Prodigal explores themes of homecoming, community and forgiveness—not only of others, but of oneself. Phyllis speaks about the importance of place as a character and how community shapes story. We also discuss her book flight—stories that inspired Prodigal—and how her background in true crime shaped her fiction writing in unexpected ways.Episode Highlights:What compelled her to write Prodigal.The small-town dynamics that breathe life into the novel.How “place” can become its own character.The emotional complexity of forgiveness and redemption.A book flight inspired by Prodigal's themes and tone.Connect with Phyllis:FacebookInstagramWebsiteShow NotesSome links are affiliate links, which are no extra cost to you but do help to support the show.Books and authors mentioned in the episode:Agatha Christie booksThe River We Remember by William Kent KreugerThis Tender Land by William Kent KreugerThe Poisonwood Bible by Barbara KingsolverThe Gray Wolf  by Louise PennyBook FlightOrdinary Grace by William Kent KreugerDemon Copperhead by Barbara KingsolverAn Unfinished Love Story by Doris Kearns GoodwinDessert PairingLadder of Years by Anne TylerSupport the showBe sure to join the Bookish Flights community on social media.

When I learned that 2 of my children stopped believing in Jesus, I was devastated. Even though we mourn the relationship when we become estranged, that is not the biggest blow when you're estranged from a prodigal. The biggest blow is about their relationship with Jesus. As a Christian mother, your highest hope for your child is that they make it to Heaven. When faced with them turning from the Christian Faith, your heart breaks as you consider them being lost. It's tempting to blow up at your prodigal, trying to push them back to a place of spiritual safety. But doing so can make things even worse. In this episode of The Estranged Mom Coach™, I'll tell you a better way to respond. This is information every estranged parent of a prodigal needs to know.

Client Reviews… ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jenny's teachings have produced results reconnecting me with my estranged daughter I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible support and guidance received in the most tragic time of my life from coach Jenny Good. Her faith, compassion, understanding, dedication and display of radical love has truly been life-changing for me. I was so overwhelmed with feelings of confusion, guilt, and sadness. I felt lost and didn't know how to navigate through the emotional turmoil I was experiencing. However, from the very first call, Jenny created a safe and non-judgmental space for me to share my details. Her ability to listen attentively and empathize while helping me understand a different way of thinking is truly remarkable. She understood my feelings and offered tools each session in ways I have not experienced even from therapy. I am forever thankful for the medicine she has poured into me to be the very best version of myself! This has rippled into all areas of life for me. Jenny's teachings have produced results reconnecting me with my estranged daughter! Thank you for being the vessel of unwavering faith & love that so many of us could benefit from, estranged or not. A true Godsend.  - Melinda Wyman . ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐I am living a truly happy life, and I reconciled with my son  Having a coach and mentor who is rooted in Christ is very important. I've experienced so much inner healing with Jenny as my Coach. I am living a truly happy life, and I reconciled with my son! I feel empowered to continue stepping into my full power as a mother and to live a life where my children matter, but they don't determine my worth. I am me again. - Carol Adams

On June 2, about 25 years ago, our prodigal, Josh, met Jesus. He was living at House of Hope, a nearby residential home for troubled teens. His house dad, Mike, loved him, prayed for him, sought to guide him into better life choices, and on June 2, 1997, he introduced our son to Jesus. That evening Mike baptized him in the nearby lake. Josh's life changed then, and when he came home months later. He wanted to walk with God. But wrong friends and the trauma of his early life put him on a roller coaster. He would do well and make good choices for days, weeks, even months. Then down he would go for many months. The unpredictable cycle went on for 15 years.Judy's Resources:Read The Grace-full Father: https://bit.ly/3SiGkImRead A Word from Josh: https://bit.ly/3ZDiH10Join the Prayer for Prodigals community here: https://bit.ly/3uyhSWQSign up for Judy's monthly newsletter here: https://bit.ly/39TBlYtPurchase a copy of the When You Love a Prodigal book for you or a loved one here: https://amzn.to/3RuiUx9Stay connected:Website: judydouglass.com/podcastFacebook: facebook.com/JudyDouglass417Instagram: instagram.com/judydouglass417X: twitter.com/judydouglass417Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/judyddouglass/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/JudyDouglass
