Letting Go

Pastors Dave Harvey and Paul Gilbert address the weighty topic of rebellion and expand the idea of a prodigal to include not only our children, but anyone who’s straying. They remind us that we are all are born wayward and need God’s grace and forgiveness. Harvey and Gilbert give wise advice on loving a prodigal. Harvey and Gilbert remind listeners that even though you’d do anything to see your loved one restored to the right place, the prodigal mindset doesn’t respect the fear or neediness of the person trying to love them. So the offended must exhibit a rugged love that draws boundaries, and must not enable sinful behavior. Harvey and Gilbert explain the indicators that tell when it’s time to release the prodigal and let them go.
