What if God is the one playing “it” in a cosmic game of hide-and-seek? In this moving message titled “God’s Heart for the Lost,” Michael Walker takes us deep into Luke 15 to show how the heart of our Father beats for those who have wandered, strayed, or hidden from Him. Whether you’re the lost sheep, the missing coin, or the prodigal son, this message is for you—and it’s drenched in grace.
Using vivid metaphors, real-life relatability, and the joy of restoration, Michael reminds us that God doesn’t just tolerate lost people—He passionately pursues them. From the humorous reality of being “it” in hide-and-seek to the sacred moment the Father runs toward His returning child, you’ll hear the cry of heaven: “Ali, ali oxen free—come home.”
This episode will help listeners not only understand the depth of God’s love for them but also inspire them to carry that same compassion for the lost in their own lives.
