God’s mercy is always available to us but how often do we ask for it or receive it? I may not think I need it, or maybe I’m not a sinner after all. I may not feel worthy of God’s forgiveness. Through the parable of the Prodigal Son and the movie, “The Mission,” we explore God’s mercy and what makes it so important to living a full life.

We often question our worthiness and whether we need to earn God’s love and belonging. The movie, “Encanto,” helps us to look closely at what it takes to feel worthy of the gifts we are given and the people who love us. In time, we can realize that no one can earn what is already within us.
