  • Where I used to be and this reckoning
  • I know I will never be alone

  • Prepare during the week to deeply understand the message
  • Read with impact, power, and great faith
  • Have everyone stand up
  • End with “This is the Word of the Lord” – People respond: “Thanks be to God

Luke 15:11-24 (NLT)

  • 11To illustrate the point further, Jesus told them this story: "A man had two sons. 12The younger son told his father, 'I want my share of your estate now before you die.' So his father agreed to divide his wealth between his sons.

33 of 61

Luke 15:11-24 (NLT)

  • 13"A few days later this younger son packed all his belongings and moved to a distant land, and there he wasted all his money in wild living. 14About the time his money ran out, a great famine swept over the land, and he began to starve.

34 of 61

Luke 15:11-24 (NLT)

  • 15He persuaded a local farmer to hire him, and the man sent him into his fields to feed the pigs. 16The young man became so hungry that even the pods he was feeding the pigs looked good to him. But no one gave him anything.

35 of 61

Luke 15:11-24 (NLT)

  • 17"When he finally came to his senses, he said to himself, 'At home even the hired servants have food enough to spare, and here I am dying of hunger! 18I will go home to my father and say, "Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, 19and I am no longer worthy of being called your son. Please take me on as a hired servant."'

Luke 15:11-24 (NLT)

  • 20"So he returned home to his father. And while he was still a long way off, his father saw him coming. Filled with love and compassion, he ran to his son, embraced him, and kissed him. 21His son said to him, 'Father, I have sinned against both heaven and you, and I am no longer worthy of being called your son.'

37 of 61

Luke 15:11-24 (NLT)

  • 22"But his father said to the servants, 'Quick! Bring the finest robe in the house and put it on him. Get a ring for his finger and sandals for his feet. 23And kill the calf we have been fattening. We must celebrate with a feast, 24for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.' So the party began.

Deep relationships

With God = Others

Anyone can say, “I love God,” yet have hatred toward another believer. This makes him a phony, because if you don’t love a brother or sister, whom you can see, how can you truly love God, whom you can’t see? -1John 4:20 (TPT)
