Session 50: Running – When God Runs to Us

In this powerful and deeply personal episode, Teri Pope explores the question: What does it mean to run? She shares her own journey as a runner, the discipline it takes, and the joy it brings. But this episode isn't really about running. It's about how God is running to us.

Teri turns to the parable of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15, where a son runs away from his father, squanders his inheritance, and finds himself broken and empty. But while he is still a long way off, his father sees him, feels compassion, and runs to him. The father doesn't wait for the son to clean himself up. He runs. He embraces. He restores.

Teri reminds us that God is chasing us. He is not waiting for us to get our lives together before He loves us. He is running to us, pursuing us, calling us home. No matter how far we have wandered, the Father's arms are open, and He is running toward you.

Scripture Focus:

Luke 15:20 (NASB) – "And he got up and came to his father. But while he was still a long way away, his father saw him and felt compassion for him, and ran and embraced him and kissed him."
