What stands out about Jesus's behavior in these chapters? What does that say about his mission?
Look over all of Chapter 15 again. What do these parables tell us about the kingdom of God?

Wilder Adkins took the tune to “What Wondrous Love” and rewrote the words to tell the prodigal son story.
Step 6 | Prayer
Help our witness Lord, we profess the faith, and yet care not for the dying. We profess, and yet long not for the coming of the day of God. We profess, and yet by our whole life show to them that can see how little a measure of it we have in our hearts. Lord, lead us more into the power of things. Then the virtues of him who has saved us, and called us out of darkness into his marvelous light, will be made known to others. Amen. —John Bunyan

Bonus Reading: Prodigal God by Timothy Keller. This short book by Tim Keller is the best simple retelling of the gospel that I have ever read. He does so using the prodigal son story from Luke 15. It's easily my favorite book.
