For Father’s Day, our message is “The Prodigal Father.” We may know that story of the Prodigal Son, but how often do we really think about the father in the parable? What examples does he give us of being a good father? About being a good person? What can we learn about the example we set for others? We explore this and more.
Today’s reading is from Luke 15:11-32 CEB.
