Jesus’ famous parable of the prodigal son is loved by Christians and non-Christians alike. It is a message of all-inclusive love that has touched the hearts of millions for generations. What was Jesus teaching in this parable 2000 years ago? Whom was he trying to reach? Does the parable still speak to the Church today? This book digs deep into Luke chapter 15 to learn what the Church has lost: the ministry of Jesus was to seek and to save the lost and now calls the Church to the same ministry.

Discussion questions are the end of each chapter that can be engaged individually or in a group. These questions are designed to see yourself and your church in the stories of Jesus and encourages you to take the ministry of Jesus into your community.
