Anger Management

This week we explored the second part of the Prodigal Son story—focusing on the anger and entitlement of the older brother. While the younger son sought fulfillment in the far country, the older son believed his obedience earned him a reward. Yet both were distant from the father's heart. True joy, the “gigantic secret of the Christian,” is not found in rebellion or self-righteousness but in the grace that welcomes everyone home. May our lives reflect that joy—a joy that reaches, includes, and redeems.
