Publisher's Synopsis
In 1967 in Tanzania, Africa, B.H. Clendennen received this message concerning The Prodigal Church. During the 60s, 70s and 80s he preached it across America in meetings, conventions and by TV Broadcast. In 2001 at the annual School of Christ International Preachers' convention in Beaumont Texas, he preached this message again to a gathering of several hundred believers. This booklet is an amalgamation in written form of the old and new message he preached on those occasions. The parable of the Prodigal Son is not just about a wayward Jewish son or a backslidden Christian. It is a wonderful revelation concerning what happened to the Church after the day of Pentecost when it wasted its wonderful inheritance. It reveals the tragedy of what happens when the Church leaves the power and simplicity of Pentecost and turns to games of religion and worldly entertainment in order to gather crowds. This is a vital message for this hour.
