You think you know the parable of the Prodigal Son? Think again.

What if I told you that BOTH sons were lost—not just the one who ran away? What if the father's actions were so culturally SHOCKING that the original audience would have been gasping throughout the entire story?

🎯 In this powerful message, you'll discover:

✅ Why the father RUNNING was considered shameful (and what it reveals about Jesus)

✅ The cultural bombshell that modern readers completely miss—this wasn't just a family drama, it was a total disruption of Middle Eastern honor culture

✅ The elder brother's hidden sin and why he represents religious people who keep all the rules but miss the whole point

✅ How Jesus deliberately recreated Peter's calling to restore him after his devastating denial

✅ The mind-blowing apple illustration that shows God had the solution embedded in the problem from the very beginning

💡 THIS MESSAGE IS FOR YOU IF:

You've ever felt too far gone for God to restore you

You've been the "good one" who's done everything right but feel empty inside

You struggle to forgive someone who's hurt you

You want to understand what God's love REALLY looks like in action

You've heard this parable a hundred times but never understood its radical message

🌟 The Game-Changing Revelation:

God's love doesn't just bring you back to where you were—it restores you to where you SHOULD HAVE BEEN all along.

Unpacking Middle Eastern culture in detail, Pastor Stephanie reveals why every single action in this parable would have caused scandal. When you understand what the father GAVE UP to run after his son, you'll never read this story the same way again.
