The Loving Father (Luke 15:11-32)

What Christians Should Know

In Luke 15, Jesus tells a famous parable. Said parable tends to be best known by the name, “The Prodigal Son.” Yet, what is evident is that the central character of the story is the not the son who returns, but rather the father who lovingly demonstrates unmerited favor to both of his sons. Accordingly, in the episode, Dr. Sadaphal will extract theological lessons and practical applications from the parable of the “Loving Father.” This wonderful story highlights divine love, forgiveness and joy over the lost who are found.
