Parables: The Prodigal Son | Luke 15:11–32“He was lost and is found.”This week in our Parables series, we dive into one of the most powerful and personal stories Jesus ever told: The Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11–32).

In this heartfelt message from Week 2 of Faith and the Piano Man, we reflect on Billy Joel's Just the Way You Are and the transforming truth of God's unconditional love. Through the story of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11–32) and Paul's powerful words in Romans 5:6–8, we're reminded that God's love isn't something we earn—it's a gift we receive. Even when we feel unworthy, even before we change, God says, “I love you just the way you are.”

"I will make known the LORD's loving devotion and His praiseworthy acts, because of all that the LORD has done for us—the many good things for the house of Israel according to His great compassion and loving devotion." Isaiah 63:7 Life often presents us with challenges that can feel overwhelming. Yet, in these moments, we are reminded of the profound truth found in Psalm 23:6, "Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life." This verse encapsulates the unwavering presence of God in our lives, offering us comfort and hope even when we feel lost and uncertain. As Charles Spurgeon once said, "The Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting." Just as He has been faithful throughout history, from the Exodus of the Israelites to the moments of despair faced by David, we can trust that His mercy continues to flow into our lives today. The stories of the Bible remind us that even in our lowest moments, God's love never wavers. Jeremiah 31:3 says, "The LORD appeared to us in the past, saying: 'I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore, I have drawn you with loving devotion." Let's reflect on the story of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11-32). No matter how far he strayed, his father was waiting with open arms, ready to welcome him back with love and forgiveness. This illustrates God's character—He is always near, even when we stumble or stray. His light breaks through our darkness, illuminating the path back to Him. In all circumstances, remember that God's unwavering love surrounds you. He has led you through fires and has been your refuge in the darkest nights. Embrace the truth that you are never alone; He is both your Father and your Friend, steadfast in His goodness.  Lamentations 3:22-23 says, "Because of the loving devotion of the LORD, we are not consumed, for His mercies never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness!" Prayer for the Day! Heavenly Father, thank You for Your unfailing mercy and love. Help us to trust in Your goodness every day, especially during our struggles. May we always find hope in Your presence and remember that You are with us through it all. In Jesus' name, Amen. 

In this powerful sermon, we dive into the story of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11-32) and how it parallels our own struggles with shattered dreams, poor decisions, and the redemptive power of God's love. Life can sometimes feel like our dreams have been crushed or stolen, but God's promise is that He can restore and rebuild what has been lost. We are made in God's image—and with that, comes the ability to dream and envision a future full of purpose. But the enemy wants nothing more than to derail us from the dreams God has given us. From crushing our hopes to twisting our desires, the devil will stop at nothing to keep us from fulfilling our God-given potential. Yet, there is hope for every broken dream and shattered vision. Key highlights in this sermon: How the younger son in Luke 15 represents us when we chase after selfish desires and lose sight of God's true purpose for our lives. The spiritual battle behind the dreams we carry and how the devil tries to distort, destroy, or abort them (Genesis 3:6-5). The path to restoration when we repent and return to the Father's love, trusting that our inheritance in Christ is still available to us. The truth from Psalm 37:3-4 that God desires to give us the desires of our hearts, but we must align those desires with His will. If you've ever felt that your dreams are too far gone, this message is for you. God is still in the business of restoring broken dreams and healing hearts. Just like the prodigal son who "came to himself" (Luke 15:17), it's never too late to return to God and find healing for your soul. Don't let your past mistakes define your future. There's always a new beginning in Christ, and He's ready to restore your broken dreams into a hope-filled future.

Like you're doing well in one area of life but still stuck in an old role, memory, or wound in another?In this message, we explore the powerful stories of Jacob and Esau (Genesis 27 & 33) and the Prodigal Son (Luke 15)—a journey of deception, resentment, wrestling, and ultimately… redemption.You'll hear real stories, raw struggles, and biblical truth that challenge us to look at the moments we've been tethered to—whether it's regret, comparison, anger, or offense—and how Jesus gives us the power to break free.

Reflecting on the Parable of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:1-32), Fr. Eric reflects on how we are meant to receive people who journeying in the mode of the younger son in that parable.

On this Laetare Sunday we are delighted to have + Paul Dempsey, one of the auxiliary bishops of Dublin join John and Shane on the podcast to share his journey to priesthood and to becoming a bishop but also what he learnt on a visit to Kenya in January 2024 and what the people of the diocese of Marsabit in northern Kenya could teach the Irish church about sharing the faith. We have our regular run through the liturgical odds and ends including the upcoming saints of the week and prayer space in part one. In part three we have our weekly reflection on the Sunday gospel which this week is the great parable of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15: 1-3, 11-32).Rediscovering the ChurchBishop Paul Dempsey is one of the current auxiliary bishops of Dublin although he started out his episcopal service as the bishop of Achonry in the west of Ireland until Pope Francis decided to move him to assist Archbishop Farrell in Dublin as part of the reorganisation of the dioceses in the west of Ireland. He shares with us some of his vocation story and about what he ministers to now in Dublin. But he also shares with us his experience of visiting the diocese of Marsabit in January 2024 and what he learnt about being church in that vast space in northern Kenya. He takes us through the role of the catechist in the small Christian communities and how key they are where there are no priests, reflects on the basic nature of missionary work and what we can learn from that in Ireland where the assumed role of the faith in the fabric of society has come under so much strain and rupture. Taking the work of the theologian and missionary Fr Vincent Donovan, Bishop Paul reminds us that as a church we are called to work with people "not to call them back to where they were......not to try and call them to where you are, as beautiful as that place might seem to you. [We] must have the courage to go with them to a place neither you nor they have ever been before".  Text us at +353 874668950 or email at comeandseeinspirtaions@gmail.com

It's often said that wisdom may create wealth, but wealth rarely creates wisdom.What's more valuable, wisdom or wealth? Before you answer, consider that wealth is fleeting, but wisdom is never lost. John Cortines joins us today to discuss why wisdom over wealth is always the right choice.John Cortines is the Director of Grantmaking at The Maclellan Foundation and previously served as the Chief Operations Officer at Generous Giving. He is the co-author of God and Money: How We Discovered True Riches at Harvard Business School and True Riches: What Jesus Really Said About Money and Your Heart.A Study in Ecclesiastes: Wisdom Over WealthFor the last year, John has been working on an in-depth study for FaithFi titled "Wisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money." The study is designed to help believers align their financial decisions with biblical principles.At the heart of the study is a profound truth: while wisdom and wealth are both valuable, only wisdom can preserve life.A Tale of Three Siblings: The Power of WisdomTo illustrate Ecclesiastes's message, John shares a real-life story that highlights the stark contrast between wisdom and wealth:Three siblings each inherited $1 million at age 18—a life-changing sum. Yet, their paths diverged dramatically:The first sibling followed a path similar to the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11-32), squandering their wealth and ending up in financial ruin. The second sibling made some wise decisions but ultimately spent beyond their means, leaving them with little to show for the inheritance. The third sibling sought wisdom, meeting with godly mentors and hiring a Christian financial advisor. They learned about generosity, investing, and stewardship. Today, they glorify God with their finances and have built a stable foundation for the future.This story powerfully illustrates that wisdom can generate wealth, but wealth rarely generates wisdom.Why Prioritizing Wisdom MattersEcclesiastes sheds light on this principle in Ecclesiastes 7:11-12:"Wisdom, like an inheritance, is a good thing and benefits those who see the sun. Wisdom is a shelter as money is a shelter, but the advantage of knowledge is this: wisdom preserves those who have it."John shares three lessons from this passage that we can take from this:Wealth is useful, but it is temporary.Wisdom is lasting, offering protection, guidance, and life.Without wisdom, wealth can be destructive.While Scripture never condemns wealth, it warns us to prioritize wisdom above financial gain.Thanks to compound interest and investments, wealth tends to grow exponentially throughout life. However, wisdom doesn't grow automatically—it requires intentional effort.If wealth outpaces wisdom, it creates danger. But when wisdom leads, it preserves our life and financial well-being.This is especially critical during sudden wealth events, such as receiving an inheritance, a bonus, or selling a business. Without wisdom, wealth can disappear quickly.So, if wisdom is more valuable than wealth, how do we pursue it?Wisdom isn't just a set of principles—it's a person. 1 Corinthians 1:24 refers to Jesus as:"Christ, the power of God and the wisdom of God."True wisdom begins with knowing Christ. It's about seeking Him through prayer, studying His Word, and surrounding yourself with godly counsel.Wisdom Before Wealth: A Message for ParentsFor those preparing to transfer wealth to the next generation, we must prioritize passing down wisdom first.The great wealth transfer is happening all around us, but money without wisdom can be destructive. Parents should talk about finances, generosity, and stewardship long before an inheritance is passed down.Here's how to transfer wisdom before wealth:Start financial conversations early, even with young children.Encourage responsible financial habits.Model biblical stewardship in your own life.Consider gradual giving instead of a lump sum inheritance.The worst approach is to write a will, wait until you pass away, and hope your kids figure it out. Open the conversation today.The Larger Message of Ecclesiastes: Jesus is Our Ultimate WisdomThroughout the book of Ecclesiastes, there are two major themes:The Shortness of Life—Ecclesiastes mentions death in 11 out of its 12 chapters. This isn't to bring fear but to remind us to live with urgency and purpose. Aligning Finances with Faith—Money is a tool, but it must be managed in light of God's eternal kingdom.Life is short. Let's honor God with our time, talents, and treasure. Wisdom is ultimately found in Jesus Christ. When we align our hearts with Him, our finances, decisions, and entire lives are transformed. Let's pursue wisdom over wealth, knowing that true riches are found in Christ.As you consider your finances, ask yourself:Am I pursuing wisdom as much as I pursue wealth?Am I making financial decisions based on biblical principles?Am I preparing my children and loved ones to handle money wisely?Money is temporary. Wisdom is eternal.

The Parable of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:1-32) illustrates God's joy over a repentant sinner through the stories of a lost sheep, a lost coin, and two sons. The younger son rebels squanders his inheritance and falls into despair before returning home in repentance. His father, filled with compassion, welcomes him back with a grand celebration, symbolizing God's grace. Meanwhile, the older son, resentful of his brother's restoration, represents the self-righteous who struggle to grasp grace. The parable emphasizes that salvation is not earned but freely given, and God rejoices when the lost are found. ★ Support this podcast ★

 "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." Romans 8:38  In a world filled with uncertainties and challenges, it can be easy to feel alone or abandoned. However, let us remember the powerful words of Romans 8:38-39: “For I am convinced that neither death nor life...will be able to separate us from the love of God.” This profound assurance reminds us that no matter what we face, we are enveloped in the everlasting love of our Creator.  The story of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11-32) illustrates this truth beautifully. After squandering his inheritance and hitting rock bottom, the son returned home, expecting rejection. Instead, he was met with open arms and unconditional love from his father. This narrative reflects God's desire for us to return to Him, no matter how far we've wandered. His love is always waiting, ready to embrace us anew. Jeremiah 31:3 says, "The LORD appeared to us in the past, saying: “I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore, I have drawn you with loving devotion." As we navigate life's ups and downs, it's vital to hold onto this promise. In times of despair or doubt, remind yourself of Psalm 136:1: “Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; His love endures forever.” No matter your circumstances, God's goodness remains constant. His love is not contingent on our actions but is an unwavering force that sustains us through every trial. Let us also heed the words of C.S. Lewis, who said, “Though our feelings come and go, God's love for us does not.” Feelings can be fleeting, but God's love is steadfast. As we embrace this truth, we can find peace in knowing that we are never truly alone. Amen. Romans 5:8 says, "But God proves His love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Prayer for the Day!Heavenly Father, thank You for Your unbreakable love that surrounds us each day. Help us to recognize and embrace Your presence in our lives, knowing that nothing can separate us from You. May we find comfort in Your promises and strength in Your word. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen. 

The Parable Of The Prodigal Son : Luke 15 : Pastor Raef Chenery : 01-12-25 by Park Community Church

We live in a world full of distractions, yet beneath it all lies a deep longing for connection, belonging, and home. This week, we'll explore Isaiah's prophecy of a child born to us—our Everlasting Father. How does Jesus, the Son given to us, reveal the heart of a perfect father? And how does his fatherly care lead us out of loneliness and into what we long for most: a true and lasting home in him? Listen as we discover how Jesus is the great light for our loneliness.Advent Reflection Questions: Isaiah calls Jesus our Everlasting Father (Isa. 9:6), not as God the Father, but to describe the quality of his character. How does this title reveal Jesus' loving, protective, and shepherding nature toward his people?In a world where 1 in 3 people feel lonely weekly, many turn to distractions like TV, social media, or temporary escapes to cope. How does Jesus, as our Everlasting Father, offer a deeper solution to loneliness and the longing for connection?Psalm 103:13 says, “As a father shows compassion to his children, so the Lord shows compassion to those who fear him.” How does this verse deepen your understanding of Jesus' father-like care and compassion for you?Reflecting on the human longing for connection and home, how does Jesus' incarnation at Christmas address the brokenness in our world and draw us into God's fatherly love?In the Parable of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15), the father welcomes his son with unconditional love and grace. How can we reflect this same welcoming love and grace of Jesus as we call others back home to God?

Tim Kimberly teaches from Luke 15:11-32 on the Prodigal Son.

"God Loves the One," reflects on the balance between truth and love in ministry. In Luke 15:2, the Pharisees criticized Jesus for welcoming sinners. Jesus responded with parables, such as the lost sheep (Luke 15:3-6) and the lost coin (Luke 15:8-9), illustrating that everyone holds equal value in God's eyes and no one is a lost cause. Our impatience often blinds us to the gradual work God is doing (2 Peter 3:8-9). Like planting seeds, our role is to plant and water while trusting God to grow (1 Corinthians 3:6). The story of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:20) reminds us that restoration begins with seeking out those in need. We must meet people where they are, sharing God's love and truth, showing them their worth as determined by God.

Turns out, if you don't tell the whole story it makes a huge difference!

The Parables of Jesus in Modern Interpretation   Jesus of Nazareth, a seminal figure in Christian faith, is renowned not just as a spiritual guide and savior but also an unmatched storyteller. Using simple, everyday illustrations, he tackled complex theological and moral conundrums. His parables, varied and compelling tales, have engaged theologians, scholars, and ordinary people for centuries, revealing the multifaceted dimensions of spiritual truth. While their inherent messages endure over time, they possess a dynamic quality that allows for modern interpretation and application to contemporary issues.   Intriguingly, parables were a distinctive hallmark of Jesus's teaching method. Sublime in their simplicity yet profound in their implications, these stories brought forth a transformative approach to understanding spiritual and ethical principles. Remarkably, parables are more than mere allegories or metaphors. In essence, they engage the listener or reader on multiple levels, encouraging introspection, inquiry, and, sometimes, inviting controversy and debate.   The Parable of the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25-37) constitutes a prime example that remarkably corresponds to modern-day discourses on ethnicity, nationality, and racial harmony. It tells of a man, presumably a Jew, who was assaulted and left half-dead by the roadside. A priest and a Levite, despite being of the same ethnic group and religious lineage, pass by without assisting. It is a Samaritan, viewed with disdain and prejudice by Jews of the time, who stops to help the victim compassionately. This parable invites us, as contemporary readers, to challenge our prejudices and redefine our understanding of 'neighbor'. It underlines the mandate to show mercy across ethnic, national, and social boundaries, a message of utmost relevance in today's era of increasing social fragmentation.   Another compelling tale is the Parable of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11-32), which beautifully encapsulates the concepts of sin, repentance, and divine forgiveness. In this narrative, a younger son squanders his inheritance prematurely, lives a debauched life, and ultimately lands in destitution. Recognizing his misstep, he returns home, prepared to accept the status of a servant. However, his father, filled with mercy, welcomes him warmly and even arranges a celebratory feast. This provokes resentment in the elder son, who had always been obedient. The father gently reminds the elder that all he has is his, while the rejoicing was due to the lost son's return. A modern interpretation could address issues like the tendency to judge others, the apportioning of blame, and the exploration of repentance, grace, and second chances. Moreover, it fosters the discussion on familial relationships and addresses the destructive nature of envy and pride, sentiments exacerbated in the modern world due to the 'highlight reel' culture of social media.   The Parable of the Sower (Matthew 13:3-23) provides a metaphor on disseminating 'the word of the kingdom' and the varied responses it garners. The sower sows seeds on different types of ground: the path, rocky places, thorns, and good soil – each representing a type of listener. Through this parable, we can reflect on how we receive the Word of God in an era overwhelmed with information and knowledge. Are we too distracted or hardened by the complexities and challenges of the modern world to genuinely engage with and act upon those heavenly insights?    Each parable unravels the spiritual truths of our human existence - they provide guidelines on how to navigate life's turbulences faithfully and morally. The Parable of the Mustard Seed (Matthew 13:31-32) embodies the power of faith in bringing about change in our individual lives and society. The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant (Matthew 18:21-35) issues a profound reminder about forgiveness in an age where individuals often harbor resentment and grudges.   In conclusion, while the parables were birthed in a cultural and historical context vastly different from our own, they transcend these boundaries through their timeless wisdom. They act as mirrors, reflecting our societal norms, personal shortcomings, and spiritual struggles. The modern interpretations are countless, each offering renewed perspectives enlightening our understanding of faith, morality, benevolence, humility, perseverance, and love. Indeed, the Parables of Jesus continue to provide a crucial moral and spiritual compass guiding us through today's contemporary world immersed in constant evolution.

The gospel is as much about the Father as it is the Son. Jesus did not come to earth to convince a begrudging Father to accept us; He partnered with a loving Father to save us (John 3:16). The Father planned our salvation, the Son accomplished it, and the Holy Spirit applies it. The resounding message of the gospel is this: “Come home.” What is our heart toward the lost when they come home through Christ? To resent it when the lost are found is to have a heart like Satan. To rejoice when the lost are found is to have a heart like God. Take Home Message: The Father longs for you to come home. The Parable of the Prodigal Son:The Younger Son's Rebellion (11-13).The Younger Son's Ruin (14-16).The Younger Son's Repentance (17-20a).The Father's Response (20b-24).The Older Son's Refusal (25-32). The Prodigal Son:  Luke 15:11-32 Simple.
