Homily Notes The Heart of God | 24th Sunday of Ordinary Time | 09.11.2022 | Fr. Brian Larkin 
“You and I need to be rooted & grounded in Scripture. The Bible is a Catholic Book.”—Fr. Brian Larkin Luke 15: The Prodigal Son—This is the only place in the New Testament where this story is mentioned. https://bible.usccb.org/bible/luke/15 Luke 15 tells three parables that are actually three forms of the same story: -The parable of the shepherd who searches for his lost sheep (Luke 15: 1) -The woman who searches for her lost coin (Luke 15: 8) -The parable of the Father in search of his lost son (Luke 15: 11) “Open your heart; this story is the heart of the Gospel.”—Fr. Brian Larkin “If you let this story enter not just your ears, but your heart and your soul, it’ll make you a son or a daughter. This story is about the heart of God.”—Fr. Brian Larkin “Satan loves to give us a false image of the Father. And the world needs the truth so desperately—we need to know the heart of God. It has to start with us.”—Fr.
