Eagles Nest Retreat Center and is limited to 12 students. Cost is
$25. For more information, or to get an application form, please

Todays final parable paints a scene of a father who has nothing but
total love for his children. One has completely rejected and
insulted his family and his faith. The other is a self-righteous child
who has never done wrong. How do we act in the role of the
father toward others who meet these descriptions? Whom do we
fail to love or forgive? What sin do we believe is too big for Gods
love, mercy and forgiveness? Does self-righteousness prevent us
from being in loving relationships with others?
