The New York Times bestselling author of The Prodigal Prophet uncovers the essential message of Jesus, locked inside his most familiar parable.

Newsweek called renowned minister Timothy Keller “a C.S. Lewis for the twenty-first century” in a feature on his first book, The Reason for God. In that book, he offered a rational explanation of why we should believe in God. Now, in The Prodigal God, Keller takes his trademark intellectual approach to understanding Christianity and uses the parable of the prodigal son to reveal an unexpected message of hope and salvation.

Within that parable Jesus reveals God’s prodigal grace toward both the irreligious and the moralistic. This book will challenge both the devout and skeptics to see Christianity in a whole new way.

Praise for Timothy Keller and The Prodigal God

“Thrilling . . . Brilliant. Keller elegantly explains the goodness of God, redefining sin, lostness, grace, and salvation.” —HeartsandMinds.com

“An amazing, thought-provoking, illuminating work.” —Examiner.com

“The insights Tim Keller has about the two individuals in the story, and about the heart of God who loves them both, wrecked me afresh. Tim’s thoughts deserve a hearing worldwide.” —Bill Hybels, founding and senior pastor, Willow Creek Community Church

“Explain, explode, expose, explore—all of these Jesus did by telling the parable of the prodigal son. In this book, Timothy Keller shows us something of how this story actually reveals the heart of God, and, if we read it carefully, our own hearts. This brief exposition is unsettling and surprisingly satisfying. Like seeing something as your own home, or your own self, with new eyes. Enjoy and profit.” —Mark Dever, senior pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist Church, Washington, D.C.

“When it comes to the gospel of Jesus Christ, Timothy Keller is simply brilliant.” —Mark Driscoll, pastor, Mars Hill Church and president, Acts 29 Church Planting Network

“Keller will be remembered as a pioneer of the new urban Christians.” —Christianity Today magazine

“I thank God for him.” —Billy Graham
