The Prodigal Son
Teaching Notes
‘How many of my father’s hired servants have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you.

Application

There’s nothing you will do could make God love you less.
Conclusion
He is a better savior than you are a sinner.
If you turn around, you will be found.
We have to celebrate and be glad because our brother or sister was dead and is alive again; you were lost, but now you are found.
