On Sunday we continue our exploration of the parable of the father who had two sons, paying particular attention to Luke 15:11-18, 25-29a. Here Jesus depicts the sin of both sons, not only the younger, wayward brother. Of course, the younger brother’s alienation from his father seems obvious. And yet, what Jesus hopes we’ll see is that both sons are caught in their own sin and brokenness and the elder brother is equally lost, only in a different. And so, the story is about a father who lost two sons whom he longed to shower with his prodigal love and grace. And therein lies our hope.
