Since this Sunday’s gospel is the familiar Parable of the Prodigal (or Lost) Son and because it’s Laetare Sunday, I thought I’d do something different with the illuminated gospel this week.
You’ll notice two translations/versions of the story. Slides two and three are the liturgical NARB version while four and five are from The Message Bible. I tried to include art which seemed to best fit with each version.
And, as a special bonus, here’s an excellent, exegetical sermon and two songs about this parable:
Bishop Baron’s Weekly Homily: “The Prodigal Son Returns”
“Now You’re Back” by Justin Roberts
