The Older Brother Problem

The Older Brother Problem - Jordan baker

May 25, 2025

Forest City Church

In this message, Jordan spoke from Luke 15:25–32, focusing on the elder brother in the parable of the prodigal son. While the younger brother’s rebellion is obvious, the elder brother reveals a more hidden danger: self-righteousness. Rooted in good behavior and moral pride, it often goes unnoticed. We explore three key traits—comparison, resentment, and disconnection—and how they quietly pull us away from God and others. This message challenges believers to examine their hearts and rediscover God's grace.
