Tim Keller has a new book coming out this month called "Prodigal God." It will discuss how the famous story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15 shows the heart of the gospel. This is one of my favorite stories in all of the Bible. I can't wait. Below he talks about the sermon that gave him inspiration for this book from crossway:
"Many excellent studies have been written on this Biblical text over the last several years, but the foundation for my understanding of it was a sermon I heard preached over thirty years ago by Dr. Edmund P. Clowney. Listening to that sermon changed the way I understood Christianity. I almost felt I had discovered the secret heart of Christianity. Over the years I have often returned to teach and counsel from the parable. I have seen more people encouraged, enlightened, and helped by this passage, when I explained the true meaning of it, than by any other text (pp. xii-xiii)."
