In The Prodigal God, New York pastor Timothy Keller uses the story of the Prodigal Son to shine a light on the central, beautiful message of Jesus: The gospel of grace, hope and salvation.
Keller argues that the parable of the prodigal son, while Jesus’ best-known parable, is also his least understood. He introduces the reader to all the characters in this timeless story, showing that it concerns not just a wayward son, but also a judgemental older brother and, most importantly, a loving father.
This short but powerful book is a reminder to the faithful, an explanation to the seeker and finally an invitation to all – both ...older and younger brothers – to enter in to the ‘unique, radical nature of the gospel’: the reckless, spendthrift love of God.
Read an independent book review.
This book is a challenging read we are doing it as part of our Home Group with the discussion guide. It challenges preconceptions about the story and raises issues that we need to face and work through if we are to reflect our Christian faith to those outside the church.
A reminder of how wastefully extravagant God the Father is, and just how counter-cultural this parable really is. It is a real challenge to the elder brother aspects in all of us - we can be just as lost as the younger brother and not always realise it. This book helps us to look at our motives as we serve Our Lord and whether we truly love Him with all our heart, all our soul, all our mind and all our strength and love our neighbour (younger brother) as God calls us to do.
