GOD’S HEART IS FOR THE LOWLY, THE SUFFERING, THE POOR, AND THE DISENFRANCHISED IN OUR WORLD. SO IS OURS.

The Parable of the Prodigal Son

The way this parable shapes our church.

Charles Dickens once wrote about this parable, “The Prodigal Son is the finest short story ever written.” Parables are designed to comfort the afflicted and to afflict the comfortable.
In the parable there are two sons separated from their Father- one because of his rebellious living and the other because of his religious living. One separated because of his bad deeds- the other because of his good deeds.
Here at Prodigal we really believe that Jesus calls us out of both rebellion and religion- and into a life and lifestyle of great love. In Jesus' story we see the Father go out to his rebellious son and also go out to his religious son. He  invites both to the party! The rebellious and the religious are both called to leave those lifestyles and join the celebration of the Father's love. This is the calling of Prodigal Church.
