Book description
In THE PRODIGAL GOD, New York pastor Timothy Keller uses the story of
the prodigal son to shine a light on the central, beautiful message of
Jesus: the gospel of grace, hope and salvation.
Keller argues that the parable of the prodigal son, while Jesus'
best-known parable, is also his least understood. He introduces the
reader to all the characters in this timeless story, showing that it
concerns not just a wayward son, but also a judgemental older brother
and, most importantly, a loving father.
This short but powerful book is a reminder to the faithful, an
explanation to the seeker, and finally an invitation to all - both
older and younger brothers - to enter in to the 'unique, radical
nature of the gospel': the reckless, spendthrift love of God.
