The Invitation - The Prodigal Part 5 by Andrea Kramer

Celebrating grace isn't just for new believers—it's discipleship. In this vulnerable and powerful finale to "The Prodigal" series, Pastor Andrea shares her honest confession about relating to the older brother and reminds us that faithful service can sometimes lead to a cold heart toward those who need grace most. From Netflix binges to road rage confessions, this teaching will help you serve not from a place of earning favor—but from celebrating grace. Whether you've been in church for 5 days or 50 years—this message is packed with conviction, hope, and an urgent invitation to join the party. God's not just giving you grace for your salvation. He's giving you grace to celebrate His work in others too. Scripture Reference: Luke 15:1-2, 31-32 Big Idea: The father went after both sons—and He's actively pursuing a deeper relationship with you too. Key Quote: "There is no better evangelist than a brand new baby Christian. All they know is 'I once was addicted and now I'm not.'" ⸻ Topics in this Message: How faithful service can lead to spiritual coldness The danger of confusing what we do with what we deserve Why Jesus left the story unfinished (He's asking us the same question) The heart, promise, and purpose of the Father's invitation How to celebrate revival instead of standing outside criticizing Never forgetting where the Lord brought you from Choosing compassion over tradition and rules +++++++ Join us for church this Sunday.
