The Prodigal God

*The Prodigal God* by Tim Keller explores the parable of the lost son, emphasizing that both the younger son (who departs and squanders) and the older son (who resents and works hard) are lost in different ways. The story reveals God's unconditional love and grace, inviting both the rebellious and the self-righteous to genuine reconciliation. Keller highlights that true faith involves recognizing one's own need for grace and embracing God's open arms, which offer forgiveness and acceptance regardless of our past or our attitude. Ultimately, it challenges us to understand God's radical love beyond surface appearances.
