Bonus Episode: A Better Homecoming
Homer's Odyssey and the Parable of the Prodigal Son –Luke 15:11-32
While Christopher Nolan's Odyssey fills cinemas around the world, we take a step off the main path to ask why a poem nearly three thousand years old still pulls us in. The answer, I think, is an ache we all know — the longing for home the Greeks called nostos, the very word buried inside our "nostalgia."
Homer's hero fights his way home by cunning and strength, proves he's the true king by bending a bow no one else can bend, and is recognised at last by his scars. It's a homecoming you have to be worthy of. And that, deep down, is what the human heart believes about God: earn it, prove it, be good enough.
Then, one afternoon in Galilee, Jesus tells a very different homecoming story — a son who comes back with empty hands and a rehearsed apology, and a Father who runs.
In this bonus episode we set the two side by side: the homecoming we think we must earn, and the far better one that grace runs down the road to give. Come and travel with me, and let's take the long way home.
