Typically, we call the famous parable by Jesus 'The Prodigal Son,' but that title is actually a bit misleading. The point of the parable is not the younger (Prodigal) son's recklessly extravagant living. Instead, it's about God's recklessly extravagant love.

God's love for us is overwhelming! But that's not the whole story. As we receive God's love we are able to return that love to God and others.

God's desire for us is that we become all that God created us to be. Life is the process in which we can resist or yield to God's desire for us. When we yield we sense God's burning love as warm and liberating. When we resist we experience God's burning love as pain and wrath.

God's love is victorious! But perhaps not in the way that you'd expect. We often associate victory with our ability to control or defeat others but God's victory encourages our freedom rather than squelches it. (We love discovering art that connects us to God in unique ways. Thank you to Dale Johnson for incorporating his art into this weekend's sermon.)

It is impossible to fully grasp God's love because it is infinite! The best we can do is humbly recognize our limitations in this way and give ourselves over to the overwhelming love that God extends to us.

In the story of the Prodigal Son, the son leaves home and experiences intensely that something is missing. Eventually he comes to his senses and goes home to his father. Greg connected this desire that the son felt to the German word sehnsucht which is a powerful form of longing that we all feel at times in our lives.
