In this message, Pastor Jermaine unpacks one of the most beloved parables Jesus ever told — but through a lens most of us have never considered. At the heart of the Prodigal Son story is a Hebrew word: teshuvah — meaning to return, to turn around, to come home. It's the most sacred concept in Jewish religious life, and Jesus uses this parable to give it a face.

What does real repentance actually look like? It's not cleaning yourself up before you come back. It's not earning your way home. It starts with a single honest moment — when he came to himself — and it ends with a Father who was already watching and waiting, and who runs before you even finish your apology.

If you've been running your own life and wondering why it isn't working, this one is for you.
