Steve Flockhart starts a new sermon series every month. In the month of February, he started the sermon series called 'The Journey Home –The Father hasn't given up'. The sermon 'The Resentment' was part of this series and was delivered by him on March 1, 2009. Other sermons in his series were The Running Away, The Regret, and The Restoration.

Steve talks to people who have walked away from God and assures them that God still loves them and they can 'come home' and return to fellowship with him.
In this sermon series, Steve Flockhart teaches people some very important life lessons through the story of the Prodigal Son who wastes all the money he inherits from his father. Eventually when he is left with nothing and is starving he regrets what he's done, and decides to return back to his father and asks for forgiveness. The father welcomes his son back and calls for a celebration.
His elder brother, however, in self-righteousness, does not rejoice the return of his brother as he believes him to be a sinner who should not be forgiven. He is full of bitterness and in resentment he says to his father, “These many years I have served you, and I never disobeyed your command, yet you never gave me a young goat that I might celebrate with my friends. But when this son of yours came, who has devoured your property with prostitutes;
