Returning Home | Season 41, Episode 7

Host: Steve Macchia, Guest: Matt Scott "God loves to take broken things and bring them to greater wholeness." — Steve Macchia What does it look like to come home to the person God created us to be? In this episode of The Discerning Leader Podcast, Steve Macchia and Matt Scott explore the journey of returning to our truest identity in Christ. Drawing from Jesus' parable of the prodigal son, they consider how our pursuit of significance, accomplishment, and counterfeit sources of identity can leave us exhausted and far from the life our souls truly desire. Through humility, confession, repentance, and the generous gift of grace, we can begin to release the false selves we've constructed and rediscover our belonging, dignity, and communion with God. This conversation reminds us that coming home isn't about earning our way back. It's about recognizing our need, turning toward the Father, and receiving the love that has been waiting for us all along. Is it time for you to return home?
