Bringing Home the Prodigals in New Zealand

Most people ask us what Bringing Home The Prodigals is all about, so here’s the basics:

· Helping parents of young children build strong foundations into their children's lives
· Releasing those who care for prodigals, especially parents, from false guilt
· Challenging all of us in local churches as to whether our attitudes have made it easier for our prodigals to leave and harder for them to come home
· Calling individuals and churches to prayer and allowing each of us to lay the names of our prodigals at the foot of the cross and to pray that God in His mercy would bring

I believe with all my heart that God is doing something special in our land. It needs humility, faith, and perhaps repentance but the result will affect millions of people. God is ready to bring home the prodigals." Rob Parsons Executive Director, Care for the Family

This simple parable has been called the greatest short story in the world. Although it's over 2,000 years old, it speaks to us today with the promise of new beginnings, the triumph of love and forgiveness, the joy of reconciliation, and the call to the church to be ready when our prodigals return. This is for all who care about prodigals - whether they are a sister or brother, husband or wife, friend or even our own parents.

Focus on the Family New Zealand believes this is a message for everyone. We encourage you and your church to spread the message of Bringing Home The Prodigals.
