Overview of The Prodigal God

Keller's refreshing 130-page exploration reframes the Prodigal Son parable, revealing how both religious and irreligious can be spiritually lost. Praised by Christian leaders worldwide, this concise 2008 masterpiece challenges conventional thinking about grace, legalism, and our deepest search for home.

The Parable That Changed Everything

Imagine a story so familiar you think you know it by heart, yet so misunderstood it's been hiding its most radical message in plain sight for centuries. The Parable of the Prodigal Son isn't just about a wayward youth who squanders his inheritance-it's a revolutionary text that completely redefines our understanding of God, grace, and human nature. When Jesus first told this story, he wasn't offering a simple moral lesson but responding to religious leaders scandalized by his association with "sinners." Through this parable, Jesus doesn't merely defend his actions-he turns the entire religious and social order on its head. The younger son's request for inheritance while his father still lived was essentially saying, "I wish you were dead." In Middle Eastern culture, this would have been an unthinkable insult. Yet the father's response-running publicly to embrace his disgraced son before any proper repentance-would have shocked Jesus' audience even more. This wasn't just forgiveness; it was a complete redefinition of how divine love operates.
