The Elder Brother's Problem

The Gate Narrows
Read

Luke 15:25-32


The younger son says:

"I am not worthy."


The elder brother says:

"I deserve more."


One is ruled by failure.

The other by achievement.

Both misunderstand the father.

Both define relationship through performance.

Neither understands grace.


Reflection

Do you relate more to the younger brother or the elder brother?
