  Luke 15: 11-31  
  The Prodigal Son  
  Jesus gave them a parable and said, “A man had two sons.” 
  “The younger son said to his father, Father, give me my inheritance from now.” 
  “The father gave his two sons their inheritance.” 
  “Some days later, the younger son packed his bags and went out of the country into another far country and there he spent his money foolishly.” 
  “Now when he had spent all his money in that same country came a great famine.” 
  “When this happened, he then began to be in need. He went and stayed with a citizen of that country, and he sent him out to work on the pig farm. He fed the pigs.” 
  “And he ate the food that was for the pigs because no one gave him anything to eat.” 
  “Then one day, he looked into himself and said, why am I here? How many of my father’s servants have enough bread to eat and I am here starving.” 
  “I will get up and go back home to my father and say, I am sorry, and I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son but please make me a hired worker.”

  Cigarettes, shoplifting, and show choir.... I’m sure it will be a doozy of a 7th grade! 
  Seventh grade starts on a hopeful note when Darla Decker and the Fairmount Fifteen are invited to the State Show Choir Competition at Coaster Kingdom. Although she’s made a no-dating bet with Nate, she’s jealous of her friend Reggie’s cell phone, and her parents are constantly at each other’s throats, Darla remains determined to make seventh grade the best year ever. 
  Will the temptation of raising mischief be too strong for Darla? In the race to act like an adult, will she stay on the straight and narrow, or will she convince herself that bad deeds aren’t bad if done for the greater good? 
  “Between the annoying older brother, mostly supportive parents with their own problems, and all the anxiety of early puberty, Darla reminded me of my earlier teenage years in an almost uncomfortably realistic way (which is a high compliment).” ~ Kimberly Lacey 
  EVOLVED PUBLISHING PRESENTS a frank and funny look at the path to adulthood, in the third book of the “Darla Decker Diaries” series, which takes us on a journey of love, loss, and the nitty-gritty of growing up as seen through Darla Decker’s eyes. [DRM-Free] 
  “Once again McHugh delivers with this coming-of-age series. It definitely hits you right in the feels over and over!” ~ Mad Mae
