The Prodigal Son: Four Discourses by William Morley Punshon presents a devotional exploration of the biblical parable of the Prodigal Son (Luke 15:11–32). Punshon interprets the story as a study of human sin, its root in a heart alienated from God, and the manifold consequences that follow—homelessness, waste, and famine of the spirit. He traces three stages of the prodigal’s experience: the plunge into rebellion, the mind’s transition toward repentance, and the welcome of the father in the final reunion. The sermons emphasize that true repentance requires a genuine transformation of affections and a readiness to forsake pride; forgiveness is lavishly granted, not earned, in the parable’s final scenes. Punshon also considers the elder brother, using him to critique self-righteous religiosity and to highlight the universal need for mercy. The collection closes with the heavenly joy at reconciliation and the merciful hospitality of the Father, who delights in saving the lost.
