    Luke 15:11-32 UNDERSTANDING THE FATHER’S HEART What is God really like? The Bible says He is a Father to us, we are His children. It is not enough to ask, “Do you believe in God?” What is more important is “What kind of God do you believe in?” Jesus tells us here in this chapter through 3 ...read more

    Jesus told three parables about lost sheep, a lost coin and a lost son. The stories highlight the truth that missing people matter to God. God places tremendous value on every individual. All heaven rejoices when one person repents and turns to God.

    “Welcome Home” Luke 15:11-27 Those of you who have had or currently have sons can closely identify with the story Jesus told about a rebellious son. The rebellious son was the teenager and the other son was obedient and probably in his twenties. In Luke chapter 15 Luke records that Jesus made ...read more
