Redemption
Matt Collins is an ambitious young man from Minnesota who longs to escape from the dull, dutiful life his father, Larry, and older brother, Steve, have built while attending church and running a successful group of car dealerships. He wants to go places, party with his friends, and have independence and freedom. After a tragedy near the end of his senior year, Matt prepares to go on a trip to Greece, a gift from his dad for graduation. But he plans to make an even bigger change and stay in Greece for good—with the help of his share of inheritance from his father. Once Matt arrives, he goes through a series of ups and downs, making bad decision after bad decision. Where else can he go, in the end, but back home to the unconditional love of his father? In this novel, a young man lives out a parable that Jesus Christ shared with his disciples. While Jesus was silent on the challenges the prodigal son faced after his decision to return to his father, those who have taken this journey know what really happens. Resolve to return to the Father brings unexpected and dangerous challenges. Through Matt’s eyes, Prodigal chronicles a cycle of pride, arrogance, deception, failure, humility, survival, resistance, and redemption.

My story began when I was growing up in Minneapolis. I was just your
usual kid with a brother, and a father who was challenging.

roads that obviously been restored by the Greek government, I couldn’t
help but think what it was like to have walked these in ancient times and
how similar they might have been to all of us walking them today.

The bus pulled away from the loading platform and began its arduous
trek through the streets of an ancient sea town.

It was a rainy day, which was unusual because since I had been there, it

They are German and fairly persistent in their
management approach, but we think, with our intervention specialists, we
will get through that conversation without any difficulty.
