Tonight's family reading · Venice
The Prodigal Son Comes Home — a 5-minute devotion for Venice families
Luke 15:11-32 · A welcome that runs to meet you
A son took his inheritance early, spent it all and ended up feeding pigs. He rehearsed an apology on the road home — but his father saw him far off, ran to him, and threw a feast before he could finish it.
If mornings are the only quiet minutes your Venice household gets, use this before the school run. Read Luke 15:11-32, say the verse once in the car, and come back to the question on the way home. Repetition is doing the work, not length.
Memory verse
“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion.”Luke 15:20
Table question
Is there an apology you are rehearsing that you could just say tonight?
30-second prayer
Father, thank you that you run. Make this house a place people can come home to. Amen.
Make it stick: pick one person in Venice — a neighbour, a grandparent, a classmate — and do the thing the story asks for before Sunday. A welcome that runs to meet you only counts once it costs something.
Tomorrow: the older brother outside the party (Luke 15:25-32). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
