Two Sons and the Father's House
from Word of Life Church Podcast · host Pastor Brian Zahnd
The father’s house in the first century Jewish world was a picture of security, provision, stability and love. It is the central point of all the activity in the story Jesus is telling in Luke 15. The youngest son leaves and returns to the father’s house and the party that is thrown, the one the older son refuses to join, is held at the father’s house. In this story Jesus reveals the heart of God our Father and we have the opportunity to ask ourselves, “Who do I identify with? The younger son or the older son?”
