Brian Priebe | Executive Pastor\nLuke 15:11-13 (NIV):11 \u2026 \u201cThere was a man who had two sons. 12 The younger one said to his father, \u2018Father, give me my share of the estate.\u2019 So he divided his property between them. 13 \u201cNot long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living.\u201d\nLife FROM God believes:God exists to bless my life.\nLife WITH God we focus on:Relationship with God is the treasure.\nLuke 12:22-34\nLuke 15:14-17\nLife FROM God:God should make me comfortable\nLife WITH God:Regardless of my circumstances\u2026it\u2019s about relationship with God.\nMatthew 11:28 (NIV):Come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.\nLuke 15:18-20, 22-24 (NIV):18 I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. 19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired servants.\u2019 20 So he got up and went to his father. \u201cBut while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.22 \u201c\u2026the father said to his servants, \u2018Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. 23 Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let\u2019s have a feast and celebrate. 24 For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.\u2019 So they began to celebrate.\u201d\nLife WITH God:The Father is about relationship with the son\nJohn 3:16 (NIV):For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.\nJohn 17:3 (NIV):Now this is eternal life; that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.\xa0\nReflection Questions:\n1.
