Description: The Parable of the Prodigal Son (Lk.15:11-32) is undoubtedly one of the most beloved stories of scripture. In this imaginative and moving work, Brian J. Pierce brings a startling perspective to the familiar story.

Starting with the words of the father in the parable, "This son of mine was dead and is alive again," Fr. Pierce imagines the parable as a commentary on the story of Jesus himself, who entered into the world of suffering and sin to bring the good news of God's radical mercy.

While shedding new light on the gospel, this work bears implications for a church called to enter compassionately into the world of those on the margins.
