Father's Day

In this sermon on the Parable of the Prodigal Son, we're invited to see God's love through a fresh lens. The story isn't just about a wayward son, but about a father's relentless, unconditional love - a perfect reflection of our Heavenly Father. We see how sin promises freedom but delivers enslavement, while God's goodness leads us to repentance. The father's response - running to embrace his son, restoring his position, and celebrating his return - challenges our notions of justice and mercy. It reminds us that God's grace is not earned but freely given, covering our sins and welcoming us home. This message encourages us to approach God saying 'make me' instead of 'give me', recognizing that true fulfillment comes from relationship with Him, not worldly pursuits.
