The Prodigal Son
Manage episode 323959814 series 3010040
Welcome to Community Presbyterian Church in Grand Rapids, Minnesota!
Today's Readings:
1st Reading Deuteronomy 21:18-21
2nd Reading Psalm 32
3rd Reading Luke 15: 1-3, 11-32
Jesus often used parables as a teaching tool in his ministry. It was a common practice among Rabbis in the first century. Each story carried layers of meaning for the listener. In today's reading of Luke 15, The Prodigal Son ends a series of three parables used to teach the grumbling Pharisees and scribes. What were their complaints? How does this story help us understand what God is doing in the world through Jesus? What does this story mean for us as modern listeners?
Join Pastor Jason Schiller for this week's sermon from Community Presbyterian Church.
