TOMORROW IN FITZROY - 31.3.19

Tomorrow in Fitzroy (11am) raises a dilemma. How do you preach the most familiar of all parables without the congregation nodding off. The Prodigal Son is a favourite parable of mine but for tomorrow I am looking at it from every possible angle to see what might connect with whoever is gathered tomorrow. It's Mother's Day here in Belfast and though the mother is absent in this family drama, the idea of home is large in my thoughts. Dave Thompson has thrown in a Martyn Joseph song to add another angle. As Saturday speeds into evening I am loving the imaginings still to come and then preaching it tomorrow!

Have you ever looked at the paraphrase of the Prodigal Son in the red hymn book Steve? I dare you to sing all of what’s written...especially where they have identified the source of our emotions.

I discovered it as a Girl Guide when bored at a Uniformed Service lol.
