Jesus’ parable of “The Prodigal Son” (which should probably be called something like “the two lost sons”) is probably the most well-known, and well-loved of all his parables – and for good reason. In it, we see God’s heart of compassion, we see ourselves and the true nature of humanity, and we hear an invitation to come home, come to the feast, and to join God’s pursuit of those who are lost. It begs us to answer the question: What will you do with the God of compassion?
