The parable of the prodigal son and the two parables that precede it, the parable of the lost sheep and the parable of the lost coin, are central to the gospel message of God’s love and forgiveness, and yet that message was offensive to the original audience and is often offensive to us today. What does it tell us about the nature of God and where should we look for ourselves in the story?

In this week’s sermon I look at the time that Mary and Joseph lost Jesus and found him at the temple and what the story says about the humanity of Jesus.

This week we look at the book of Joel and the how he was preparing the Judeans for the coming of the Messiah and the forgiveness that the Messiah will bring with him.

In this sermon I look at the faith of Daniel and our own faith in God during both good times and bad.
