Project Description
2. Welcoming
Series: Love Your Church
Preacher: Roydon Frost
Bible Reading: Luke 15: 11-32
Date: 02 February 2025
In this sermon, Roydon Frost explores the parable of the prodigal son, highlighting the father’s radical welcome to his wayward son and the older brother’s bitter response. The story reflects God’s grace, love, and open arms toward the lost, challenging us to extend the same hospitality to others. The sermon introduces the concept of gracism—welcoming people regardless of colour, class, or culture—calling for inclusive communities where grace is both preached and practised. Historical context shows how early Christians were mocked for their radical welcome, yet this inclusivity was a hallmark of the gospel. Ultimately, the message urges us to embody God’s heart by embracing the outsider and ensuring our communities reflect His love.
