About this episode
Jesus’ story of the prodigal son is one of the most loved and misunderstood parables. The son didn’t leave home just to find freedom—he left because he was already lost in his heart. He returns not out of repentance, but out of desperation. Yet even then, Jesus reveals a father who is full of grace. This lesson explores the deeper meaning behind the prodigal’s journey, why he really came back, and what hope this parable offers for anyone who loves someone running from God. It’s a powerful reminder that grace begins—even when repentance is still catching up.
