    Two brothers in the family had entirely different viewpoints on the way a situation was handled. The difference led them in two different directions. How they resolved the problem in the end may be representative of today’s situations.

    March, 2007 “Two Points of View” Luke 15:11-31 INTRODUCTION: Today our scripture is a well-known parable that generally focuses on the younger son who is labeled “the prodigal son” but he is only part of the story.

Last week I reminded us of the scripture passage from Luke 9:51 which said “When the days drew near for him to be taken up, he set his face to go to Jerusalem.” Jesus, knowing full well what would ...read more

If you are a Christian you may think of the empty tomb, or of the angels and Jesus’ visit to the disciples. If you are not a Christian you might think of the Easter Bunny or "maybe I ...read more
