John Stoltzfus: A Welcome Home

John Stoltzfus is the guest preacher today at Park View Mennonite Church (Harrisonburg, VA). He preaches from Luke 15, focusing on the parable of the "prodigal son." John suggests Jesus was inviting the religious leaders to see the prodigal as an opportunity for learning about the generosity of God that was already available to them if they would but receive it. We are transformed as we are welcomed into God’s beloved community and we are not left the same as we are invited to be reconciled to all the other wandering souls who also belong.
