Hope Lies Ahead

Encouragement for Parents of Prodigals from a Family That's Been There

By: James Banks, Geoffrey Banks

Narrated by: James Banks, Geoffrey Banks

No prodigal is beyond the reach of God.

Do you have a child who has walked away from Jesus? Or have you walked away from Him yourself? Hope Lies Ahead captures the candid journey of a prodigal son’s return, written from the unique perspective of both the father who prayed and the son who struggled. Told together, their story will encourage you through the honesty of their pain and their compelling experience of God’s redemption.

Amid the heartache of watching his teenage son self-destruct and the realization that all he could do was pray, pastor James Banks wrote the popular book Prayers for Prodigals. At a low point, Geoffrey Banks recognized that life could be better, and he sensed Jesus calling him back. Now, Hope Lies Ahead tells the powerful story of God’s faithfulness to answer prayer and of the healing found in Him.

No matter what you’re struggling with—whether it’s you or a child who has abandoned faith or faces addiction or prison—you are not alone. There is hope in Jesus, who makes all things new.
