Today, we delve into one of the most powerful and moving parables Jesus ever told: The Prodigal Son, found in Luke 15:11-32. This story is more than just a tale from the past; it's a vivid portrayal of redemption and a mirror reflecting our own lives at times. Let me share with you an anecdote about a young man who, much like the prodigal son, left his family seeking freedom and adventure, only to realize that true contentment lay in the home he left behind. This story, much like our parable, is a journey of realization, mistakes, and a return to grace.
