Luke 15:6,9,32

What brings you joy? There is great joy in finding what was once lost.

In the dark night of the soul or caught in the foggy haze of confusion, is there good news for me? Rick Brown writes a beautiful story on the background of Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer and a reminder that Jesus came for all of us misfits so we could know we fit in.

How much difference should it make in our lives to know it all is ours? Tom Norvell remembers the words of the father to the older brother in the parable of the Prodigal son that everything the father has is his, it belongs to him.

Lost ring, found joy! Patrick Odum writes about a lost class ring and compares it to Jesus' parable about the lost coin and reminds us that the joy of someone coming to Christ should thrill us, too.

God's people have been in lost places before our time. They made it safely through their wilderness to better times and better places. James Nored in video and Phil Ware with words reminds us that God is the finder and mender of lost and broken things and lost and broken people.

Which of the two do you choose to do? Jesus chose people over practices and love over legalism.

Isn't it a blessing when you find what's been lost?! Phil Ware tells about a time he lost his son Zachary and then found him and the joy of finding lost sheep in the teaching of Jesus.

Have you missed the story about the other son? Rick Brown writes about the prodigal son parable and reminds us that there are two sons who are lost and need to come home to the heart of the father and join the party he longs to throw for both of them!

Can you capture the memories even if you can't hear the words? Phil Ware begins a series of messages called "The Journey Home" and focuses on God being the home we long for.

Make that last effort to make it home! Tom Norvell reminds us that we will all have difficult points in our journey, but let's finish strong, especially when we find ourselves in the home stretch.

Haven't we all wasted enough time piddling around when there is a party going on? Phil Ware continues his series on the prodigal son called The Journey Home, and he focuses on the older brother and God's desire to throw him a party.
