The Prodigal Son

On March 18, the fourth Sunday in Lent, Laetare Sunday, the Gospel reading is the familar account in Luke that is described as 'The Prodigal Son'.

Questions for reflection:

What do we mean by 'Prodigal'?

Why do we not hear from the the Mother?

Would we react as the older son did?
