Synopsis

There are a few questions that lie just below the surface for many Christians.

Does God really love me despite my failures?

Can God use me for good in this world despite all my sin and shortcomings?

Do my doubts and questions about faith make God think less of me?

Do I have a future in the family of God despite my past?

In the biblical story of the Prodigal Son, Jesus answers all those questions that lurk in the heart of so many believers. In The Long Walk Home, author and pastor Matt Carter takes a fresh look at this age-old story and helps the listener discover and experience, once again, the radical, never-ending love of God for His sons and daughters.

Most of us have probably heard the story of the prodigal son. It is a story that I grew up hearing, and one that I would probably just skim over at this point because I already know it by heart. However, reading The Long Walk Home by: Matt Carter made me really stop and ponder this story, and how mu......more

I loved this book so much! And I think it is because of the tone of the author, Pastor Matt Carter.
