Absent From The Party

While the Prodigal Son partied in a distant land, his older brother toiled in the backyard. But don’t be fooled–turns out you don’t have to leave home to rebel. In this message, Dr. Stanley takes a closer look at the second half of the parable of the lost son, examining the self-righteous attitude of his older brother.

Don’t let self-righteousness poison your relationship with God or His children. Find the cure that releases you to join the celebration.
