The Prodigal Son Tells His Story | Luke 15
What if the prodigal son could tell you his story himself?
In this unique presentation from our series 'Prodigals', Pastor Thomas steps into the character of the prodigal son and brings Luke 15:11–32 to life through first-person storytelling.
Hear the story of a young man who left his father's house in pursuit of pleasure, squandered everything he had, and found himself desperate and alone. But when he finally returned home, he discovered something he never expected: a father overflowing with forgiveness, compassion, and grace.
Blending dramatic storytelling, humor, and biblical truth, this message reminds us that no matter how far we've wandered, our Heavenly Father is gracious to receive those who turn to Him.

Seeking the Lost | Luke 15:1–10
Jesus said that a shepherd will leave the ninety-nine to pursue one lost sheep—and that heaven rejoices when one sinner repents.
In “Seeking the Lost,” the opening message of our Prodigals series, Pastor Thomas Harding walks through Luke 15:1–10 and the parables of the lost sheep and lost coin.
What does it mean to see people as spiritually lost? What responsibility do Christians have to pursue them? And how do repentance, the work of God, restoration, and rejoicing fit into the story of salvation?
This message challenges us to see the people around us as God sees them, diligently share the gospel, trust the Holy Spirit to work, and celebrate when the lost are found.
