This is the sermon that launched the book 'A Tale of Two Sons' by John MacArthur. Posted on SermonAudio with Permission from VCY America (Ingrid Schlueter).

One of the most familiar, best-loved stories of the Bible is also one of the most misunderstood and poorly taught. There's more drama, raw emotion, and profound meaning to the parable of the prodigal son than most people realize.

In this sermon, John takes you back in time to Jesus' masterful telling of the penetrating story, helping you hear, understand, and respond to it the same way His original listeners did. Along the way, John restores the brilliance of the parable, giving you engrossing cultural and historical background, and unveiling a shocking, surprise ending.

This sermon takes you inside God's tender heart for sinners, and spurs you to deeper study of His Word as you see new richness unfold from even this most familiar passage.

“ Great Sermon! ”
Wow! A must hear!

John E. Jones from Port Arthur, Texas (12/2/2008)
“ Great Sermon! ”
Expositional preaching at it's best. Dr. McArthur explains in it's broadest terms connecting it to the entire passage, the through the culture and historic background, Jesus's storey is understood in it's original intent. It does everything good preaching is suppose to do, explain the original meaning and glorifying God through the genuis of the scriptures. John Jones

“ Great forgiveness. ”
I never heard a such clear, profound explanation on this text. It moved me to tears when it presented the grace, the forgiveness and generosity of God. Christ died for me so that I may be accepted by God.

DR. BROWNING from TENNESSEE (11/5/2008)
“ ACCURATE AS USUAL! ”
VERY WELL DONE. MUCH STUDY INVOLVED AND IT SHOWS. THANKS FOR THE INSIGHT.
