Prodigal Father

Watch Live

When we hear the word “prodigal,” we tend to think of “wandering” or “errant,” but the actual meaning of the word is “lavish,” "luxuriant" or “extravagant.” The young son in Jesus' famous story was prodigal in wasting his inheritance, but the Father is prodigal in His love and forgiveness.

This teaching series will explore themes of God’s creation, justice and salvation, with a continual focus on our generous, loving Father, who was revealed fully in his fatherhood when he sent his Son into the world to become our Savior Jesus Christ. Each session will feature teaching from Asbury’s pastors and teachers including Dick Read and Melissa Ivey, personal testimonies of the Father’s love from Asbury members, hymns and songs of praise led by James Lambert and friends, and celebration of Holy Communion led by Guy Ames. Inspired by the blessings experienced in 2020’s Holy Spirit Seminar, we hope you will join us in this “new tradition” of Spring Teaching during the first 11 Wednesdays of 2021.
