    The original story of the prodigal son is very touching but is written as all bible stories are written and that is to put anyone to sleep. However‚ Garrison Keillor’s version of the prodigal son makes the same point and is fun to read. He brought it in to a more modern day setting but the same message is sent like the original story. The story of the prodigal son is that he wanted his father to give him everything that he would inherit when the father passed on. His father agreed and he left

    In The Parable of the Prodigal Son Luke uses the tones of penance and reconciliation to illustrate the morals of repentance and forgiveness. Luke first uses the tone of penance to show that the younger son is sorry for his sinful ways. Luke writes‚ “ I will arise and go to my father‚ and will say unto him‚ ‘Father‚ I have sinned against heaven‚ and before thee in thy sight‚ and am no more worthy to be called thy son. Make me as one of thy hired servants”. The younger son realizes the error of his

    The story of Noah and the ark is probably one of the most read stories of the bible. Perhaps it is because of the great tragedy it portrays‚ or because it is a story of salvation. Noah and his family along with the animals were saved from the flood‚ while the other people and animals perished as a result of it. Growing up the story of Noah and the ark was one of my favorites; Quite simply because of the drawings depicting the story. They appeared so beautiful‚ when after many years I’m realizing

    Interpreting The “Prodigal Son” This story was a reminder for me‚ because it still happens today. When the young son wanted and demanded his money‚ he decided to move far away from his family. He thought that he didn’t need any one and just be on his own‚ having fun and spending all his money. Today that still happens‚ when we are young; we tend to want to move out as soon as possible from our parents home. And eventually we realized like the young son that life is not as easy as we thought. So
