Welcome back to another episode of the Post-Sermon Reflections Podcast, where we help you apply Sunday morning learning to Monday morning living. Join Audley and Donna as they delve into the parable of the prodigal son, exploring the deeper lessons it holds for both the wayward and the self-righteous.

In this episode, we discuss the profound insights from Luke 15:11-32. Donna recaps the story of the younger son's rebellion and return, and the older brother's resentment. We reflect on the father's unconditional love and the shame he bore for both sons, mirroring Christ's sacrifice for humanity.

Audley and Donna highlight the dangers of self-righteousness and the importance of recognizing our own "older brother syndrome." They share personal reflections on how this parable challenges and encourages them in their faith journey, emphasizing the need for a balanced understanding of law and grace.

Finally, they discuss the concept of spiritual adoption and the transformative love of the Father. Tune in for an enriching conversation that will challenge your perceptions and deepen your understanding of God's grace.
