Overview & Insights
"Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep that was lost." (Luke 15:6)
Tax collectors and sinners gather to hear Jesus, and the religious leaders grumble that he welcomes them. Jesus answers with two parables, a shepherd who seeks one lost sheep and a woman who searches for one lost coin, and says heaven rejoices over one sinner who repents.
