Most everyone has heard the story of the Prodigal Son, even if they've never read it. In this message, we're challenged to see beyond the familiar narrative and confront our own spiritual blind spots. The story actually isn't just about one wayward son, but two - and the second son's struggle might hit closer to home than we'd like to admit. As we dive into Luke 15, we're reminded that God's love and forgiveness extend to both the openly rebellious and the secretly resentful. The elder brother's attitude serves as a mirror, asking us to examine our own hearts for traces of bitterness, self-righteousness, or judgment towards others. Are we, like him, standing outside the celebration, refusing to rejoice in God's grace? This fresh perspective urges us to confront the 'elder brother syndrome' in our own lives, challenging us to embrace true forgiveness and reject the deceptive comfort of offense. It's a call to return to the Father's house with humility and joy, regardless of our past or present struggles.
