Garvie delves into the story of the prodigal son and his return to his father's home after squandering his inheritance. Through his analysis, the author highlights the father's unconditional love and forgiveness towards his wayward son, despite his past mistakes. The book also examines the elder son's resentment towards his brother's return and the father's efforts to reconcile them.Moreover, the author uses this parable to explore the concept of inhumanity to man and how it contrasts with God's humanity.

He also emphasizes the importance of forgiveness and compassion towards others, even when they have wronged us.Overall, The Joy of Finding or God's Humanity and Man's Inhumanity to Man is a thought-provoking and insightful book that offers a fresh perspective on the Parable of the Prodigal Son.
