The Prodigal Son - Beginner's Bible

do you know how the world began how god created it by hand from mighty mountains to the raging sea to every leaf on every single tree it's in the holy book just open up and take a look it's a story for young and all the greatest a long time ago jesus traveled the land teaching people how to be good to each other and to love god many people listened and learned from his stories but some didn't understand and had questions what are you doing jesus you are sitting with sinners how can you be a teacher sent by god if you speak to tax collectors these men take our money and give it to the emperor we've even heard you eat with these men they have turned their backs on god i'm sure god will have nothing to do with them why should you all people are special to god let me tell you a story once there was a shepherd with a hundred sheep but he lost one of them jesus told how the shepherd wanted all of his lambs safe he looked and looked until one day the shepherd had a big celebration because he had found what he had lost but jesus the shepherd was just doing his job there's more joy in heaven over someone who is lost and then found who changes his life for god than over 99 people who don't need to change jesus then told about a woman who had ten silver coins but she lost one of them when the woman discovered she had lost the one coin she was very upset she spent the whole night looking for her lost coin uh huh she told her friends and they celebrated because she had found what she had lost that's the way god feels about people in heaven the angels sing whenever a person says he or she believes in god and wants to live a better life but jesus in your stories the shepherd and the poor woman lost valuable things and all sinners especially tax collectors are worthless bad people there's another story a story about forgiveness and love there was once a man who was both a wealthy farmer and a loving father the father tried to teach them how to take care of things thank you reuben but where is your ah benjamin even though his sons were very different he loved them both the same the father hoped they would grow up to be hard-working farmers but as the younger son grew up he dreamed of distant places didn't want to stay on his father's farm the son decided to leave his home the very next day father i had a wonderful dream last night really what kind of i was riding the finest horse in the city oh the city's a nice place to visit but everyone stared at me because i was handsome smart and wealthy yes you are all of those father farm life is fine for you you're a farmer but it's not for me there are things i have to do places i have to see you're leaving home yes you have always promised my brother and me an inheritance money for us but it's for your future oh please father i want my money now i must see the world starting today but the father did not want his son to leave he would miss him a great deal oh thank you father i'm rich hey that's not fair benjamin can't take his money and leave like this if that's what he wants he can do it don't worry about the farm father reuben will be here but i care about you i'll miss you my son i'll be all right i'm going to see the world wave goodbye to your brother the father could only hope that one day he'd see his son again no more dirty hands no more backaches and no more work isn't it magnificent it was the sun's first time out in the world and he wanted to buy everything he saw well what do you think now all i need is to be seen riding a magnificent horse 37 38 39 40. you have bought the finest horse in my stable well i deserve the best you know uh do you want that mule anymore nah he reminds me of my father's farm none of my horses are worth 40 coins why this mule is worth twice that much the fool doesn't care how he spends his money i see something else to buy i don't care what it costs i must be seen riding through the streets today father i've listed all of our animals thanks robin that was a lot of work uh i was just thinking about your brother i'm sure you miss him as much as i do the son was still spending money he hadn't learned his lesson yet i'm sorry you'll have to leave i have customers waiting i beg your pardon sir how about a big fluffy pillow the boy still only thought about himself ladies and gentlemen for your dining pleasure be ira and his funny monkey i must have that monkey wow excuse me sir but you have stayed here for a week will you pay your bill oh is money all you want uh-oh ouch get out of my end this will pay for your bills benjamin was now alone and very hungry what am i going to do for the first time in his life the son had to beg for food ah no free food the boy was so hungry he needed to find work any work but the only job he could find was the worst possible watch it don't make well eggs of yourselves oh i'm so hungry oh thanks little pig i've been acting so foolishly a pigsty is fine if you're a pig but it's not for me at my father's farm everyone even the helpers have a place to sleep enough to eat wait a minute i'll go home well father won't want me back as a son not after the way i treated him but anything's better than this mess hey he might give me a job on his farm i'm never gonna snap my fingers like that ever again so the son decided to go home and he hoped that his father would not send him away thank god he's come back sir your son is coming home benjamin my son is back my brother is back this is a very bad idea my father won't even want to talk to me uh oh too late is he going to be mad father i'm sorry for leaving and now i only asked to work in your fields i shouldn't even be called your son anymore oh welcome oh welcome home i'm so happy you're safe what let's have a big party father uh i don't understand send for food lots of food and get some musicians my son has returned home but the older son was jealous of his brother whoa out of my way tell me is the banner hanging straight no it's all wrong everything's wrong the father welcomed his lost son back home and the son realized how much his father loved him spent my money lost my way left my house when i had

brother the father is like god he is full of joy and forgiveness when someone decides to follow him no matter what we have done who we are god will always love us we are not convinced god even
