Grace for You

By John F. MacArthur Jr.

Book Overview

In the distance, a figure, just barely a speck on the horizon, slowly approaches his boyhood home. He hasn't been there in years and is nervous about showing his face. Years ago he wished his father would drop dead, took his share of an inheritance, and lived a shameful life. With all the wealth squandered, his desperate poverty has driven him back to his father's house. At the same time, an elderly man, distinguished and handsomely dressed, sees a far-off silhouette. "Could it be?" he thinks to himself, not daring to let his hopes up, refusing to believe his son would ever come home. But what is a vague, repressed hope becomes the undeniable truth that his long-lost son draws near. He runs recklessly to meet him. "Grace for You," taken from Dr. John MacArthur's best-selling book "A Tale of Two Sons," explains the hidden dynamics of Jesus' most well known parable, The Parable of the Prodigal Son. It gives you a brief but powerful look into the homecoming of the son, the unthinkable response of the father, and the often overlooked truth about the older brother who spurns his return. In these pages you will rediscover the depths of god's redemption.

Customer Reviews

Short book PACKED with truth from God's word.

John MacArthur is easily one of the greatest and most gifted Bible teachers alive! I own / have read many of his books and all of them are always backed up by the word of God. The man is devoted to proclaiming Truth. This book is sort of a "condensed" version of one of his other books - "A Tale of Two Sons." This summarized version, however, is still a great read. I read the entire thing in a half hour.
