More About This Study:
Through The Running Father, we find that Jesus often “ate with tax collectors and sinners.” The religious leaders of the day grumbled and muttered – they did not approve of Jesus' actions. What was Jesus up to then...and still up to now?
In Luke 15, Jesus responds to the grumbling of the religious leaders with a trilogy of parables. Westerners know them as the parables of the lost sheep, lost coin, and lost ("prodigal") son. In the Middle East, God is the focus of each biblical story – a lens which uniquely shapes Middle Easterners' understanding of these parables.
Discover these cultural differences, as well as how Jesus defined "repentance," in The Running Father!
