    The rich man in hell did everything that the poor man did on earth; however he did them simply TOO LATE!

We know this story ...read more

    It is interesting to try and identify with the three characters in the story: 1. The prodigal. 2. The older son. 3. The father.

    I realize that I have recently preached on this passage of scripture, but I feel compelled to speak on it again. The reason is that while on vacation I picked up Henri Nouwen’s excellent book entitled: The Return of the Prodigal Son: A Story of Homecoming. It is one of those books that pulls you ...read more
