Willie’s rebellion against Phil turned into a lifelong habit, and one his kids are still benefiting from. Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke connect the Robertson family’s life to “The Odyssey,” from Phil and Miss Kay’s open-door hospitality to Al’s unforgettable memory of his dad coming home. Zach discovers a surprising way to impress his wife, while John Luke admits the Robertsons don’t take kindly to being told what to do. The guys consider why sons need their fathers and where people can find love and belonging when their earthly fathers fall short.
In this episode: Ecclesiastes 1:9; Matthew 25:31–46; Luke 10:25–37; Luke 15:11–32; John 4:1–42; John 20:24–29

The Odyssey tells the tale of the cunning and crafty hero of the Trojan War on his journey home.

Meanwhile, Ithaca is threatened by suitors who plague his wife and plunder his wealth. When Odysseus reaches home, he must slay the suitors, test the loyalty of his friends and family, and restore order to his marriage and his kingdom.
