The Prodigal Son:
Discovering the Fullness of Life in the Love of the Father.

 

Is following Jesus really worth it?

At some point, we have all questioned our faith. We’ve asked questions like: Is Christianity worth it? If we go all-in following Jesus, will we miss out on the best life has to offer?

​

But what makes us ask these questions in the first place? Why are we so tempted by the allure of a life outside of God’s will? Thankfully, Jesus addressed these questions through the well-known parable of the prodigal son from the Gospel of Luke.

​

In this parable, we meet a young man who demands his inheritance then wastes it in a far-off country away from the watchful eye of his father. When he finds that the world and its pleasures do not deliver on their promises, he determines to return home to his father.

 

In this study, City Students will go through the parable of the prodigal son verse by verse and learn that true life is never found in the far-off country, but rather the best life is found in the love of our Father.
