In this six-session audio Bible study, pastor and bestselling author Timothy Keller uses one of Jesus' best-loved parables – the Prodigal Son – to illustrate the depth of God's love and how his grace extends into some very unexpected places.

Taking you beyond the traditional focus on the wayward younger son, Keller helps you glean insights from each of the characters in Jesus' parable: the irreligious younger son, the moralistic elder son, and the Father who lavishes his love on both. Inside this guide, you'll explore questions for group discussion and personal reflection, and exercises that will help you experience the truths of Jesus' parable in your own life. The gospel is neither religion nor irreligion, but something else entirely. Whether you're a devout believer or a skeptic, The Prodigal God will challenge you to see Christianity in a whole new way.

This study will help you uncover, personalize, and apply life-changing insights from The Prodigal God Study Guide and book. In six captivating sessions, pastor and New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller opens your eyes to the powerful message of Jesus' best-known—and least understood—parable. The Prodigal God is a revelation of the very heart of the gospel: God's radical love for sinners of every kind.

        Keller's approachable treatise tackles the parable of the Prodigal Son as it relates to Christians, most especially those who have come to believe that the church is fraught with hypocrisy. He reinterprets the parable to show that the Christian church is made up of "younger brothers" (those who are wayward, stubborn, and unfaithful) and "elder brothers" (those who are haughty, jealous, and close-minded) as a way of understanding how the younger brothers become alienated from the elder-brother-run church community. Keller reads his own work with both patience and enthusiasm. He never sounds preachy--only excited that his reinterpretation has helped so many disillusioned Christians return to their faith. His reading makes the down-to-earth and straightforward text an informative and revelatory listen. A.A. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine
