Prodigal Son Sermon by William Jennings Bryan
William Jennings Bryan discusses the prodigal son tale, stressing repentance, parental love, and divine forgiveness. He contrasts the prodigal with the rich young ruler, highlights the father’s welcoming embrace, and frames the parable as a broader message of God’s infinite mercy and second chances. The piece cites biblical parables of the lost sheep and the coin as preludes to the prodigal lesson.
