A Story of Two Brothers

When we think of Jesus’ parable of the prodigal son as found in Luke 15 we may tend to think of the younger son as the one who was the most lost and in need of salvation; and we like to compare ourselves most to the older son who seems to have it all together.  In this sermon series, however, we learn that the truth of this parable goes a lot deeper than just the plight of the younger brother and that ultimately both brothers are lost and that only the younger one truly repents and comes home.  We also learn how Jesus took on the role of the truly good elder brother, one whom we should pattern our lives after.
