WINNER OF THE 2017 PULITZER PRIZE: from Man Booker Prize and National Book Critics Circle Award finalist Hisham Matar, a memoir of his journey home to his native Libya in search of answers to his father's disappearance. In 2012, after the overthrow of Qaddafi, the acclaimed novelist Hisham Matar journeys to his native Libya after an absence of thirty years. When he was twelve, Matar and his family went into political exile. Eight years later Matar's father, a former diplomat and military man turned brave political dissident, was kidnapped from the streets of Cairo by the Libyan government and is believed to have been held in the regime's most notorious prison. Now, the prisons are empty and little hope remains that Jaballa Matar will be found alive. Yet, as the author writes, hope is "persistent and cunning." Winner of the 2017 Pulitzer Prize for biography/autobiography, the PEN/Jean Stein Book Award, France's Prix du livre étranger, and a finalist for the Orwell Book Prize and the 2016 National Book Critics Circle Award, The Return is a brilliant and affecting portrait of a country and a people on the cusp of immense change, and a disturbing and timeless depiction of the monstrous nature of absolute power.

Download The Return of the Prodigal Son Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
With over a million copies sold, this classic work is essential reading for all who ask, “Where has my struggle led me?” A chance encounter with a reproduction of Rembrandt’s The Return of the Prodigal Son catapulted Henri Nouwen on an unforgettable spiritual adventure. Here he shares the deeply personal and resonant meditation that led him to discover the place within where God has chosen to dwell. As Nouwen reflects on Rembrandt’s painting in light of his own life journey, he evokes a powerful drama of the classic parable in a rich, captivating way that is sure to reverberate in the hearts of readers. Nouwen probes the several movements of the parable: the younger son’s return, the father’s restoration of sonship, the elder son’s resentfulness, and the father’s compassion. The themes of homecoming, affirmation, and reconciliation will be newly discovered by all who have known loneliness, dejection, jealousy, or anger. The challenge to love as God loves, and to be loved as God’s beloved, will be seen as the ultimate revelation of the parable known to Christians throughout time, and is here represented with a vigor and power fresh for our times.

As I researched the title of this book, I discovered that there are so many families that were torn apart by their sons or daughters. They were raised with love and compassion, yet they decided to venture out on their own in a far country to live a life free from the authority of their parents. When life doesn't go the way they thought, losing everything they inherit and ending up in low-down situations, they finally come to their senses. What kind of sons return home to their parents?

The Parable of the Prodigal Son is one of the most read and preached parables of our Lord Jesus Christ. This Parable focuses on The Father, His House and His two Sons. We know that the Father was a good man, for the scripture declares a good man leaves and inheritance for his children's children. Many who expound on this passage focus on The Son who prematurely took his inheritances, wasted it on riotous living, lost his "substance" and wound up in the Pig Pen Motel. Perhaps this is why this parable is called the "Parable of The Prodigal Son." Others focus on the Father and his relentless love for his son. The father who released the inheritance to his Son knowing that it was premature, the father who let his son leave without confrontation, the father who knew his son would return and actually ran out to meet him before he got back to the house, and the father who threw an elaborate party for his rebellious but now repentant son.However in this powerful presentation Pastor Valerie Russell focuses on The Prodigals Brother. Her spirit-led insights will captivate you and draw you closer into understanding the heart of God for all of His Children. After reading this book you will understand that God really does not play favorites and there is no need for believers to be envious or jealous of one another. You will learn that whose you are, is more important that who you are and that who you are, is more important that what you have. Finally you will come away with the understanding that because you are in the Father's house everything he has is yours, it always has been and it always will be.
