In the second part of Pastor Jamie Rasmussen's series on the parable of the prodigal son, Jamie brings a very transparent story about his life, and how at times he has struggled with being "the older son".
You see, the older son has always been the obedient, dutiful son. But when he sees lavish, grace-filled love poured upon his irresponsible brother, he is filled with anger and jealousy.
Jamie has pointed out that we can all, at times, be the prodigal son, but another striking lesson from this story is the response of the older brother, and the father's response to him.
Jamie:
"We know that we're struggling with being an "older brother" when we find anger and resentment at the blessings of others."
