The Bible has a number of incredible love stories. But among my favorites is the story of the prodigal son, who leaves his family but is joyfully welcomed home despite his failures (Luke 15). It’s a story of forgiveness and powerful love that I think everyone can enjoy and learn from, regardless of their faith and background.
