  <itunes:subtitle>In Episode 250 of the 2 Minute Disciple, we explore Luke 15:11-32 and the parable of the prodigal son. This episode reveals that God's heart is characterized by radical grace, unconditional love, and unrestrained celebration. Through the father's response to his wayward son, we discover what it means to run toward the lost, embrace the broken, and celebrate grace without judgment. This episode challenges us to examine our own hearts: Are we the younger son learning that grace is greater than our failure? Or are we the older son, bitter and unable to celebrate because we're keeping score? Through guided meditation and a practical daily habit of radical celebration, learn how to have the father's heart. Join us as we explore what it means to throw a feast for the found and celebrate grace like heaven does.</itunes:subtitle>
