The Fourth Sunday of Lent, Luke 15: 1-3, 11-32. In this Year of Mercy, we hear the very familiar and inspiring story of the Prodigal Son. We may find our place in the center of one of the three characters within the story, the father, the younger son or the older son. God’s mercy leads us beyond our selfishness and our resentments. Lent invites us to die to our selves and find our home in Christ Jesus.
