A story that Jesus told: Once there was a man who had a rebellious son. The son got money from his father and left the country. He spent the money on wild living. When he was broke, He got a job feeding pigs, which he hated. He was sorry for his stupidity. He "repented" (that means made up his mind to stop his bad ways) He went back to his father, who was only too pleased to forgive him and welcome him home. But don't forget, the son REPENTED! It's easy to say sorry and then go back to the pig sty.  Luke 15, 11 - 32
