The Prodigal Son (Luke 15: 11–32) Like You've Never Seen Before
The Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11–32) explained — meaning, context, and why Jesus told this parable. Discover the Gospel’s most dramatic story of grace, repentance, and restoration: a father who runs, a younger son who returns, and an older brother who refuses the feast. We unpack the symbols (robe, ring, sandals, fattened calf), the honor-shame culture behind the text, and what this parable says about forgiveness and identity today. In this Bible study you’ll learn: The original context of Luke 15 and why Jesus answered religious criticism with three “lost and found” stories. How the robe, ring, and sandals signal full sonship—not probation—and why the father’s public sprint is the scandal of mercy. Why the older brother is also “lost,” and how the parable invites us to celebrate when grace brings outsiders home. Practical application: moving from performance to beloved son/daughter, rebuilding relationships, and living from a forgiven identity. Perfect for sermons, small groups, and personal study. If this helped, share it with someone who needs to hear, “Come home.” 🔔SUBSCRIBE AND ACTIVATE NOTIFICATIONS🔔 / @bibleprophecy-rapture #prodigalson #luke15 #biblestudy
