Luke 15 is a chapter in the New Testament that contains three parables shared by Jesus to illustrate the profound nature of God’s love and forgiveness. In the first parable, Jesus speaks of a shepherd who leaves his flock to find a single lost sheep, emphasizing the joy and celebration that comes with the recovery of a lost soul. In the second parable, a woman searches diligently for a lost coin, rejoicing when it is found and exemplifying the value God places on each individual. The third parable, often referred to as the Parable of the Prodigal Son, tells the story of a wayward son who squanders his inheritance but is welcomed back by his loving father with open arms. This parable emphasizes God’s unconditional love, forgiveness, and desire for reconciliation.
