"As you think about the vastness of the universe, it's hard to find much significance in one human life. How could any of us really matter in the eternal plan and purpose of God?" (Garry Poole)
Jesus tells three parables (interesting stories) to explain an important point that He wants to communicate.
The Lost Sheep (Luke 15:1-7)
The Lost Coin (Luke 15:8-10)
In these two stories, the person looks for the lost coin/sheep, and rejoices when it is found.
The Lost Son (Luke 15:11-24)
In this story, the son left his family with his inheritance and foolishly spent it all. After a time, he realized the wrong he had done. He went back to his father's house to become like a servant. Instead, his father welcomed him back with excitement and celebration as a son who was dead but was now alive.
