The Prodigal Father by Angelo Scarano Pdf

Luke’s gospel contains a number of passages about compassion. One of the most beloved of these is commonly known as the parable of the Prodigal Son. In The Prodigal Father, Angelo Scarano focuses on the distinctive role of the father in the parable, the example he provides of being transformed by a compassionate heart, and the joy in celebrating the return of what was loved and thought to be lost. Scarano suggests that this remarkable parable has two climaxes—the banquet for the younger son, and the conversation between the father and the elder son—and that it is in this second climax where the real intention of the evangelist is revealed. Scarano urges readers to accept God’s “compassionate heart,” to allow God’s Spirit to transform us and enable us to live like the prodigal father, opening our hearts to the weak and the strong, the broken and the bitter. Scarano’s insightful work will be welcomed by preachers, teachers, and anyone engaged in prayer with or reflection upon the gospels.

The Prodigal Father by Forrest Hutter Pdf

When his oldest son was born, Tom had stopped drinking completely. Now with two children and his wife, he had closed the chapter on that part of his story. Life was never simple or easy for Tom, but he had all he needed to get him through it. Until he didn't. In the blink of an eye, he lost the person he loved more than anything... the one thing that always made him a better man, and his reason for everything that he did in life. His wife and soulmate, Emily. Along with her went his faith in a caring God. The pain of losing Emily was too much to bear, and he found himself consumed by more darkness than he could handle on his own. He became unrecognizable as a father and a man, and each day continued down a path that there was no coming back from, or so he thought. Even though Tom believed God had truly abandoned him and there was no way to make it Home, Tom learned that we are never alone and there is nothing God cannot do. In an amazing and emotional story of hope, heartbreak and redemption, Tom's story shows us that there is always a way back Home and nobody is ever past saving...

The Prodigal God by Timothy Keller Pdf

The New York Times bestselling author of The Prodigal Prophet uncovers the essential message of Jesus, locked inside his most familiar parable. Newsweek called renowned minister Timothy Keller "a C.S. Lewis for the twenty-first century" in a feature on his first book, The Reason for God. In that book, he offered a rational explanation of why we should believe in God. Now, in The Prodigal God, Keller takes his trademark intellectual approach to understanding Christianity and uses the parable of the prodigal son to reveal an unexpected message of hope and salvation. Within that parable Jesus reveals God's prodigal grace toward both the irreligious and the moralistic. This book will challenge both the devout and skeptics to see Christianity in a whole new way.

The Prodigal Father by Dr. Victor T. Nyarko Pdf

What has become popularly but erroneously known in Christian and Church circles as the parable of the ‘Prodigal son’ is part of a larger revelation Jesus told about three parables of lost—the lost coin, the lost sheep, and the lost son. Contrary to the popular opinion and title given to this parable, the parable is more about a Prodigal father and his attitude towards a wayward younger son and a disgruntled elder son, and nothing at all about a ‘Prodigal’ son. The book culminates in the clear and simple distinction that our Lord Jesus makes between sonship and servanthood in his vineyard parables, contrary to the claim by many that all humans are sons of God through procreation. Are all indeed sons of God? Or is there a distinction between Kingdom-Sons and Kingdom-Servants of God? This book’s approach to both subjects above will leave you amused, instructed, enlightened, stirred up, and challenged, but definitely not bored!

It begs questions. Grace turns everything upside down. The Grace Message invites you to discover the best flavor of Christianity and celebrate the good news of the Gospel to the fullest.

Life is too short to miss out on God’s best—and what you don’t know can hinder you from experiencing Jesus in every area of your life.
