Stunning Confrontation With Our Value As Persons

I read this book years ago, and was left inspired and sometimes tearful at the way Oglesby forced me to confront not just my inadequacies, but the value I have in the eyes of God. This book isn't really an easy read; the modern-day tale of the Prodigal Son and his Older Brother is mingled with the revelation of how each of us carries traits of both the lost child and the child who never wanders but loses his soul within himself. And the moments when the Prodigal returns, as well as the final drama, are life-changing. It breaks my heart that this book is out-of-print; maybe with enough demand, it will see the light of publishing day again!
