In this episode, Dustin begins a series on finding hope in the midst of trials and difficulties. He focuses on the parable of the prodigal son in Luke 15 to illustrate the inexplicable love of God. The younger son demands his inheritance, squanders it, and ends up in a desperate situation. However, when he comes to his senses and returns to his father, he is met with compassion, celebration, and restoration. This story reminds us that no matter how far we have strayed, God's love is always waiting for us to return.
