We know the story of the Prodigal Son—but what if we’ve missed something essential?

In this powerful and heartfelt retelling, Student Ministry Intern Luke Wilkins shares the parable from a new point of view: the older brother. Through storytelling, raw emotion, and a fresh perspective, Luke invites us to wrestle with the deep truth at the center of Jesus’ story:

You can’t earn the Father’s love.

Whether you’ve wandered far from God or stayed close but grown bitter in your striving, this message reminds us:

• The Father sees you.

• The Father loves you.

• And the table is still set for you to come home.
  

💬 “I was just as lost as my brother… I didn’t understand my Dad’s love, because I was trying to earn it.”

📖 From Luke 15, this message challenges us to stop striving and start receiving—because God’s love isn’t a reward for performance, it’s a gift for the lost and the found alike.
