What if the Prodigal Son isn’t the only one who’s lost?

In this episode of Sermon Brainwave, Profs. Karoline Lewis, Rolf Jacobson, and Matt Skinner explore the parable of the Prodigal Son, examining its themes of grace, family dynamics, and reconciliation — all with fresh insights for 2025. They discuss how the parable's title shapes interpretation, unpack artistic depictions of the story, and connect its themes to the broader biblical context, including Joshua, Psalm 32, and 2 Corinthians.

Join us as we explore these Lenten themes and offer insights to inspire your preaching this season.
