    If you have ever been in the position of the father in the story, you know the heartbreak, the sleepless nights, the wondering, and the self-reproach. "Where did I fail?" It is agony to await the outcome.

So he told them this parable: "There was a man who had two sons. The younger of them said to his father, ...read more

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 26, 2006
    based on 16 ratings
     | 6,130 views

    This is the second part of a two-part message. The two things needed to reach the lost is (1) compassion, and (2) persistent effort. We cannot remain passive and expect the lost to return. We need to make connections with the lost constantly.
