Recounting the parable of the prodigal son, author Bryan Wolfmueller discusses the biblical account in light of our culture today.
The author focuses on "three slaveries" The Belly Slavery, which prioritizes our passions and desires; Despair, which causes us to feel trapped and unworthy of God's forgiveness and love; and Pride, which focuses on our self-centered nature. The conclusion points to the Gospel promises and freedom in Christ, emphasizing His forgiveness and love.
