Luke 15:1-3, 11b-32 | Many of us are familiar with the story of the prodigal son. But as we look deeper into this story, it’s apparent that not only is the younger son’s actions “prodigal” in nature. The father’s actions also exemplify that which is prodigal—extravagant, lavish, and even illogical love. Join us for worship as we hear the promise that we, too, are offered that same prodigal love of our God, and as we are invited to receive the compassionate embrace of our Father.
