When You are the Prodigal's Older Brother

Ministry to the Sibling of the Rebellious

A 30-page book with emphasis on the SIBLING of the prodigal son, in today's life. Often neglected in preaching and teaching, the left-behind sibling(s) often deals with hurt, betrayal, grief, anger and resentment. Focus on the overwhelming position the sibling finds himself/herself in. Chapters on the "new normal", forging a new vision for the family, and ministering to other families in the same situation. Ends with teaching on Luke 15, with attention to the tenderness of the Father to the sibling, when the prodigal returns. Encouragement to keep attitude in check, even in the most trying circumstances. By a mother with a prodigal daughter.
