Riassunto

The prodigal. The wanderer. The skeptic. The rebel.

Each of us knows someone who has walked away from God, and it is heartbreaking and bewildering. We wonder how to reach out to them and bring them back, but often it seems impossible. Maybe you yourself are the one who has walked away and sees little reason to return to faith and the church.

This book's invitation is this: Come home. It invites the departed to return and offers the promise of the gospel—that all wrongs and sins can be forgiven through Jesus. There is no expiration on the promise of forgiveness and the open arms of Christ, so no matter how long the wanderer has wandered, he or she is still welcome. All hurts can be healed, all brokenness mended. Just come home.

Whether you are a family member or friend of the prodigal, or whether you are that person, this book offers hope and an open invitation to return the safety of forgiveness and restoration in Jesus.

Dalla quarta di copertina:

Wanderer. Prodigal. Skeptic.

You are one. You've been one. You know one. Their lives are filled with foolish choices and little regard for consequences. Bent on getting away from those who love them, they sometimes wander so far off the path they no longer know the way back. It's painful to watch and seems impossible to understand.

Whether you are the wanderer or your heart is breaking for one, Come Home is filled with the truth and direction you need.

Come Home is . . .

. . . an invitation to all wanderers—and those who love them.

. . . a call to greater awareness for the lost and hurting.

. . . a challenge to bring back those who are missing.

. . . the cry of Jesus' heart.

“My brothers, if anyone among you wanders from the truth and someone brings him back, let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from his wandering will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.” James 5:19–20
