Roots and Relevance: Exploring the Parable of the Prodigal Son, Part 2 In this episode of Roots and Relevance, the discussion delves into part two of the series on the parable of the prodigal son. The hosts begin by examining a case of restorative justice in North Carolina involving a family forgiving a son who killed his father, drawing parallels to the themes of forgiveness and grace in the parable. The conversation then shifts to the intricate dynamics between the younger son, the father, and the concept of repentance and restoration. The episode concludes with reflections on how this parable displays the unexpected and radical nature of forgiveness, setting the stage for next week's focus on the older brother.
