Download or read book The Return of the Prodigal Son written by Henri J. M. Nouwen and published by Image. This book was released on 2013-11-20 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With over a million copies sold, this classic work is essential reading for all who ask, “Where has my struggle led me?” A chance encounter with a reproduction of Rembrandt’s The Return of the Prodigal Son catapulted Henri Nouwen on an unforgettable spiritual adventure. Here he shares the deeply personal and resonant meditation that led him to discover the place within where God has chosen to dwell. As Nouwen reflects on Rembrandt’s painting in light of his own life journey, he evokes a powerful drama of the classic parable in a rich, captivating way that is sure to reverberate in the hearts of readers. Nouwen probes the several movements of the parable: the younger son’s return, the father’s restoration of sonship, the elder son’s resentfulness, and the father’s compassion. The themes of homecoming, affirmation, and reconciliation will be newly discovered by all who have known loneliness, dejection, jealousy, or anger. The challenge to love as God loves, and to be loved as God’s beloved, will be seen as the ultimate revelation of the parable known to Christians throughout time, and is here represented with a vigor and power fresh for our times.
Download or read book The Prodigal God written by Timothy Keller and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2008-10-30 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling author of The Prodigal Prophet uncovers the essential message of Jesus, locked inside his most familiar parable. Newsweek called renowned minister Timothy Keller "a C.S. Lewis for the twenty-first century" in a feature on his first book, The Reason for God. In that book, he offered a rational explanation of why we should believe in God. Now, in The Prodigal God, Keller takes his trademark intellectual approach to understanding Christianity and uses the parable of the prodigal son to reveal an unexpected message of hope and salvation. Within that parable Jesus reveals God's prodigal grace toward both the irreligious and the moralistic. This book will challenge both the devout and skeptics to see Christianity in a whole new way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: OVER TWO MILLION COPIES SOLD! It's the most powerful force in the universe, our only hope for love and forgiveness, and a foretaste of eternal life: amazing, radical, life-changing grace. Millions of lives have been changed by award-winning author Philip Yancey's startling exploration of grace at street level. Grace is the one thing the world can't duplicate, the healing force we need, and the key to transforming a broken world. In this revised and updated edition of his personal and provocative book, Yancey offers true portraits of grace's life-changing power. These stories, set in the midst of life's stark realities, evoke such questions as: If grace is God's love for the undeserving, how do I get it? How well are we dispensing grace to a world that knows far more of strife and unforgiveness than it does of mercy? Can grace make a difference in the midst of such atrocities as the Nazi holocaust, and how can it withstand the brutality of hate? With powerful stories, rich theology, and practical suggestions, Yancey challenges us to become living answers to a world that desperately needs to know, What's So Amazing About Grace?
Download or read book The Parable of the Prodigal Son written by Barry A. Allen and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-04-18 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Parable of the Prodigal Son is one of the greatest stories ever told by Jesus Christ who is the greatest Teacher of all time. We find ourselves in this simple yet profound story, and we find that we may be represented by different persons in the story at different times in our lives. The story reminds us that we all were once prodigals, and some of us may still be, but we can also find ourselves filling the shoes of the loving father when we love and forgive others. And, unfortunately, we can sometimes find ourselves filling the shoes of the elder brother when we self-righteously judge and look down on others. In this brief expository analysis of the Parable, Ordained Minister Rev. Dr. Barry A. Allen takes us through the Parable by discussing five major themes: Rebellion, Repentance, Restoration, Rejection, and Reward. The primary theme of the Parable is the radical and unconditional love the father shows his returning Prodigal Son, and Pastor Allen highlights that this is the way God loves sinners. God doesn't give up on sinners, but "religious people" like the elder brother sometimes do. Pastor Allen encourages us to be "Christian" instead of "religious" and to love sinners the way the father in this Parable loves his son. Then, we adequately represent the love of our Father in a world where prodigal sons and daughters are around every corner. By loving and receiving sinners the way God loves and received us, we Christians give those who have been led astray in this fallen world reasons to believe that God is real, God is near, and God truly loves, forgives, and celebrates their homecoming.
Download or read book The Prodigal Son Or the Sinner s Guide to God written by Michael Müller and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-30 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of this excellent book "The Prodigal Son or the Sinner's Guide to God" was Michael M�ller, a priest of the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer. It is based on the parable of The Prodigal Son (Luke 15, 11-32), the story of that son that wanted his father's estate to spend it loosely and for that purpose he went on a journey to a distant country far away from his father. That story is illustrated in this volume, and as its illustrations are but chapters in our own lives, it is hoped that their perusal will prove as pleasant as it may be profitable to those prodigal children most deeply concerned in the narrative, who have abandoned their Father's household, taken up their abode in a strange and far-off land, squandered their heavenly inheritance, and instead of the Bread of Life find their only sustenance in the husks of swine. This is the same journey full of difficulties and sorrows that the soul undertakes when it strays away from God, from the true religion. The soul starts wandering about in darkness and doubt, and sinks into blank despair but at last the light of truth flashes upon the mind. This book can be this light for the sinner that wants to be guide back to God. It is a guide for those who feel lost and abandoned in this world and looking for a light that brings hope and joy to their tired souls. For this purpose the author goes deepens in subjects like sin, contrition, prayer, the final judgement, heaven and hell.
