Coming Home: To the Father Who Loves You

Coming home explains how and why we move away from God, the consequences,and more importantly, how , to return to the Father who loves you. "All Christians, at some point in their lives, will wander away from God," according to Robert Jeffress, in part because of our sinful nature, and in part because of Satan's plan. However, he identifies three reasons why believers leave for the far country : money, pleasure and ambition.Coming Home is based on the story of the Prodigal Son in the Gospel of Luke, divided into three parts: the departure, life in the far country, and the return. Jeffress says, "The movement away from God occurs step by step, choice by choice, until one day we awaken in a distant country, far removed from the God we once knew."The author indicates that life away from God is not all pain and pleasure, and it can last a long time. He warns against the attitude that one can return at anytime they wish, advising that the ability to! repent is a gift from God. This beautifully written book is for those who are ready and willing to come home to the Father who loves them. Its for every believer who longs for an intimate relationship with their heavenly Father. It shows how to find the way back through crisis, repentance, forgiveness, and perseverance, and the study guide in the back of the book will help readers to take the necessary steps.
