From inspirational author of The Ragamuffin Gospel comes a powerful modern day retelling of the Parable of the Prodigal Child. Jack port Chisholm is 'the people's pastor.' He leads a dedicated and growing mega church, has several best-selling books, and a memorable slogan, 'We have got to do better.' Jack port is aware how to preach, and he recognizes how to chastise people into undertaking. What he doesn't know is anything about elegance. This year, as it pertains time for the Xmas sermon, the congregation at Elegance Cathedral can look to the pulpit, and Jack port will never be there. Certainly, they will have seen a great deal of him already - on the news. After an evening of debauchery that contributes to an affair along with his beautiful assistant, Jack port Chisholm discovers himself deserted with chilling swiftness. The church elders remove him from his own pulpit. His publisher withholds the royalties from his books. Worst of all, his partner disappears using their eight-year-old daughter. And Jack is hitting lower part, hopeless and penniless, having his way to oblivion, who should seem but his long-estranged daddy, imploring his prodigal boy: 'Come home.' A true companion part for the Ragamuffin Gospel, The Prodigal illustrates the energy of elegance through the storyplot of a shattered man who finally observed Jesus not because he preached his most significant sermon or had written his most effective book, but because he failed miserably. Jack port Chisholm lost everything - his church, his family, his esteem, and his old way of believing - but he found elegance. It is the same elegance that Brennan Manning dedicated his life to sharing: profound in aspect and from the God who enjoys us as we are, and not as we ought to be.
