Full Summary and Discussion Questions

So much of how we relate to God is shaped by how we’ve related to our earthly fathers. Our expectations of God—how close He feels, how patient we believe He is, what we think He requires of us—are often informed by those early relationships.

Which leads to an honest and necessary question: Have I actually been living like a child of God?

Even when we intellectually affirm the gospel, we can still live out of either an orphan mentality or a slave mentality. Luke 15 and the parable of the Prodigal Son shows us how we can return home and experience the love of the Father.
