The Prodigal God

I could probably count the number of books I've recommended on my blog on one hand. And today, I'd like to add another to the list:


A Prodigal God by Tim Keller
prodigal |ˈprädigəl 
adjective
spending money or resources freely and recklessly; wastefully extravagant prodigal habits die hard.
having or giving something on a lavish scale the dessert was crunchy with brown sugar and prodigal with whipped creamSee note at profuse .


This book has radically rocked my way of looking at one of the most familiar parables Jesus tells. And I'm fairly certain that it will do the same for you.

He has a few sermons that cover most of the material from the book. Maybe it's because I listened to them before reading the book, but I almost think they're better.

That's awesome! I have the Bible study guide and DVD set for work, and we're going through that now. I imagine the DVD is much like his sermons. Looking forward to it!
