One of the most timeless and retold parables from the Bible, the story of the prodigal son has fascinated and transformed people for generations. In this 3 week series, find out why you’re never too far from home.
✏️💡🌟 Reflection & Discussion Questions:
1. Describe your relationship with your father. Are there any similarities or differences with the father from the parable?
2. Pastor Shawn shared 4 different ways we can seek God’s leadership in our lives & be transformed. They are: get hungry, own up, surrender to God, and lift up your praise. Which of these 4 ways comes easiest to you? Which one is most challenging?
3. When we fall into sin, we can be distracted and feel further from God. In Luke 15:17-18 the younger son owns up to his mistakes and confesses. The result was being reconnected with his father. Have you ever experienced this? How do you practice healthy vulnerability and confession with God?
4. Has there been a time in your life when you’ve loved something else more than you’ve loved God? What happened?
5. Pastor Shawn shared how the younger son transformed his perspective from “give me → make me”. Are there things in your life you can surrender to God vs. trying to control or earn a result from God?
6. How can you be like the father in the parable to others?
