Episode description

How does a person become "lost?"
Many times it's because they have run out of relationships—they've burned through all their relationships, for all kinds of reasons.
In the parable of the Prodigal Son, that's what this young son has done. He didn't have anybody to go to. He's in this distant land. He's run out of money, food and resources. He has no friends.
Why do you think he didn't immediately go back to his father? Why did he decide to go and work with the pigs? Shame? Obviously, the shame arose from the pride in his life.
This is part 2 of Richard's series on the Prodigal Son. >>Watch on YouTube
