Wild Living of the Prodical Son

Son became incredibly ungrateful toward his father - Luke 15:12-13
The sad situation became worse when be became greedy too - Wanted "his" part of the estate
Consuming his thoughts and with no regard to what his father felt, he asked
Amazingly, his father said yes

From there the son wasted this money
His life was full of sin - Luke 15:13,30
Then the economy collapsed and there was a severe famine - Luke 15:14
Life was so bad and he was so hungry, he became jealous of the pigs - Luke 15:15-16
The son was incredibly ashamed and reluctant to go home

When he came to his senses, he remember his father and his generosity and kindness
He thought as least as a servant, I would be better off than this - Luke 15:18-19

Key Phrase: Better to be a voluntary servant for Christ than imprisoned by the world
