Synopsis:
 The Prodigal Son, Jacob, leaves his father’s farm to seek fortune in the city. Encountering many temptations, Jacob squanders his inheritance. Reduced to living with animals, he decides to return to his father’s home regardless of the consequences. His father welcomes Jacob home, celebrating his return and forgiving him of his sins.

Dove Worldview:
 This film did a wonderful job of telling the story of The Prodigal Son. In this film you will learn about the prodigal son and how his greed / foolishness ended up costing him everything he had, everything that is except the love and acceptance of his father. This film shows the love of Jacob's father is unconditional just like the love of our Heavenly Father. He will always welcome us home, no matter how great our sin.

The producers did a good job of making this film interesting for people of all ages. This is a short film so children can watch and learn about the Bible without losing interest. This would also make a great teaching tool for churches. " The Animated Stories From The New Testament" series is a great way to teach your children about God and the Bible and it opens the door for your children to start asking questions. This DVD is approved by Dove for all ages.
