Synopsis
Rob Parsons' message is for anyone who cares about prodigals. He urges us to be released from false guilt, to stop judging each other, and to remember that God, the perfect parent, has trouble with his children, too. He challenges the church to recognize the part it has played in creating prodigals and says, when our prodigals do come home, pray that they meet the father first and not the elder brother! But this is not just for other people. We suddenly see that the dirty, tear-stained face coming down the road is our face. And then we discover what, deep in our heart, we knew all along: we are the prodigal.

Review
"Rob Parsons is a master storyteller, and in this book he tells stories that brilliantly illustrate how to live out God's call to a ministry of reconciliation. When it comes to ending estrangement, especially when it comes to overcoming the separateness from those who are dearest to us, this book give heartwarming advice." -- Tony Campolo, Ph.D., Eastern University "This book is a gift to the whole church." -- Dr. R.T. Kendall, former minister at Westminster Chapel, London "Not just for those with prodigals—this book can help prevent tragedy. Read it while your children are young." -- Rev. Steve Chalke, founding director of Oasis Trust "This book can help prevent tragedy." -- Josh McDowell, author and speaker
