 | The Prodigal God: Recovering the Heart of the Christian Faith By Timothy Keller |
This morning we considered briefly the older brother in Jesus' Parable of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11-32). Not everyone rejoices when a sinner repents. Tim Keller's book, The Prodigal God: Recovering the Heart of the Christian Faith explains what the origional hearers of this parable understood Jesus to be teaching and why they grumbled at Jesus' message (Luke 15:2). I stronly recommend this book.
For a better understanding of the older brother's need to "repent and return" to the father, listen to Pastor Mark Clark's message:
