Read this Sunday's Gospel
The Gospel reading for this 4th Sunday of Lent, the parable of the prodigal son, is likely familiar.
A son leaves home, squanders his inheritance, and returns in shame to the unexpected and infinitely gracious embrace of his father. Against the protests of his loyal son who’s worked at his side all the years his younger brother was partying, the father plans a lavish feast to welcome his lost son home.
