The Spirituality of Imperfection - March 17, 2019

"A theme throughout the New Testament is expressed by the father: the compassion of comfort by imperfect people. The father’s challenge is different than the previous parables about lost sheep and a lost coin. Lost children can talk back and express feelings and emotions. The father comforts his sons in pain. He is the one attempting to reunite the family." From William Ketchum's sermon. Read the whole sermon here:
