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.

Download or read book Prodigality Liberality and Meanness written by David Holgate and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1999-08-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph interprets the parable of the Prodigal Son (Lk. 15.11-32) in the light of Graeco-Roman popular moral philosophy. Luke's special parables are rarely studied in this way, but the results of this study are very fruitful. The unity of the parable is supported, and it is shown to be deeply concerned with a major Lukan theme: the right use of possessions. The whole parable is read in terms of the moral topos 'on covetousness', and shown to be an endorsement of the Graeco-Roman virtue of liberality, modified by the Christian virtue of compassion.

Book excerpt: Five pastors expound on different aspects of the parable of The Prodigal Son. Moody calls the sinner to come home to God. Moorhouse says anyone whose heart is away from Christ can be said to be in the far country of the prodigal. Spurgeon talks of the prodigal’s process of turning away from sin. Aitken deals with a person “coming to himself” and not wasting the treasure of one’s life. Talmage describes the symbol of the ring the father puts on the son’s hand.
