    Bringing Home the Prodigals (Part 1 of 2)

    Episode Details

    Bringing Home the Prodigals (Part 1 of 2)

    Date: Oct 7, 2025

    Guests: Rob Parsons

    As the father of a prodigal child, Rob Parsons understands your pain. In this heartfelt message, he encourages parents of prodigals to always “leave a light on” for their wayward child. He notes that sometimes parents carry too much guilt over the prodigal child’s circumstances, and also encourages us to not be overly critical of our children.
