Ep. 11 - Prodigals Do Come Home

from Grace in the Breaking · host Elizabeth Everett

Send us Fan MailElizabeth Everett shares a deeply personal and faith centered message about prodigals, the painful seasons when someone we love walks away from God, truth, or the life they were created for. Drawing from her own experience as both a former prodigal and a mother who has walked through the heartbreak of watching a child struggle, Elizabeth speaks honestly about the emotional toll, the spiritual warfare, and the temptation to give up hope.Grounded in biblical truth and scripture including Isaiah 49:25, Luke 15, and Psalms 34:18, she reminds listeners that God has not abandoned their children or loved ones. Even when the situation looks impossible, the Lord promises to contend for us and rescue those who are lost. Elizabeth explains why loving a prodigal requires both compassion and healthy boundaries, why enabling can unintentionally prolong destructive cycles, and why surrendering our loved ones fully to God is often the turning point.Through prayer, testimony, and practical encouragement, she teaches listeners how to stand firm in faith, reject the lies of the enemy, and pray boldly for God to break deception, strongholds, and spiritual bondage over their prodigal’s life. She also challenges families to examine their own words, attitudes, and responses so they can meet their loved ones with the same grace Jesus has shown them.For anyone walking through the pain of watching a child, family member, or loved one drift away, this message is a reminder that prodigals do return, God still redeems, and no story is beyond the reach of His grace.Learn more about: Advocates for Africa & Happy Horizons Children's RanchGrab your copy of Elizabeth’s new book, The Breaking: The Season That Almost Took Me Out and the God Who Didn't, here!Contact Elizabeth Everett:                                                                                               Website: graceinthebreaking.com                                                                          Email: [email protected]                                                                        Instagram: @graceinthebreaking                                                                                YouTube: @GraceintheBreaking Resources & Links:Nashville Anti-Human Trafficking Coalition (NAHT)Educate to Recognize ProgramThe Life Recovery BibleKing James Version BibleAdditional Resources for Parents and EducatorsConnect with the Coalition:NAHT FacebookNAHT Instagram
