Review

"I downloaded your book on my kindle last night after reading a sample. I just finished the book this evening. I can't put into words how much the book has made me think differently. Thank you for writing this book and opening my eyes." - Donna, a reader via email

"Just finished your prodigal book. It is just what I have needed. <3" - Heather, reader via email

Product Description

Well-loved by Christians of all ages, the parable of the prodigal son is often misunderstood. When Jesus told this tale, He gave us a telling of the life of the Christian. It is not just the story of coming to God for the first time, but returning to Him, as His son. This book is a short rendering on the stages of the Christian Life, and the changes that need to be made in order to return Home.

One Christian Author called THE PRODIGAL LIFE "required reading for all Christians."

The Prodigal Life encouraged me to take a new look at my own personal history. When I was young, like the prodigal son in the story, I wanted to live life my own way. Do I still have one foot in the pig pen? God doesn't want me to stay mired in the slop! He wants me to realize I am a son, not a slave. It's time to confess my sin, slip into the "sandals of the son" and head for home. He won't make me grovel when I get there, He will run to meet me while I'm still on the road.

Pauline Creeden intertwines God's words with her own so aptly, I am soon convinced that God is ready and eager to welcome me back as His beloved child. This is an author with an incredible ability to apply Scripture to our modern lives and a wondrous talent when it comes to sharing the message. I won't hesitate to buy anything written by Pauline Creeden.

I am another guy who was guilty of feeling like I already knew the Parable of the Prodigal Son. When I picked up this book I really did not expect to hear anything new. Boy was I in for a surprise. This book is short, to the point, and packs a punch!

"We have slipped into the shoes of the servant instead of the sandals of the son."

Wow, this line from the book really stood out to me and I memorized it and refuse to tuck it away for a moment of need because I find that unfortunately, I tend to plod around in the servants shoes way more than wearing the sandals. I will daily remember that I am the child of the King and only He has all that I will ever need and I can rest in that and have joy.

I am going to use this little book as a devotional and read a stage a day for my homeschoolers and am going to suggest it as a study for my Sunday School class. Mrs. Creedon has a wonderful way with words and I highly recommend this book, it will truly impact your relationship to the Father. From now on I will always remember now how He runs to us...God runs to us. Amazing how sometimes we tend to forget this, so get out of the pig's pen and get this book. You will be glad you did.
