PHP Over my head | WordPress.org

I am using a child theme of DIVI themes. The parent theme returns the correct content but my child theme returns older content only. I’ve found the php file responsible for returning what was once working but hasn’t been working for about 3 months. My eyes are crossed trying to figure out what is wrong with this code, hoping someone here can help me with this.

<?php get_header(); 
//are we getting all sermon series parent posts or are we getting all subposts of a sermon series?
$post_parent_qry = get_query_var( 'post_parent', 0 );
if ($post_parent_qry == 0) {
	$args = array('post_type' => 'message', 'post_parent' => (int) $post_parent_qry, 'posts_per_page'=>'20','order' => 'DESC');
} else {
	$args = array('post_type' => 'message', 'post_parent' => (int) $post_parent_qry, 'posts_per_page'=>'20','order' => 'ASC');
}
query_posts($args);
?>

<div id="main-content">
	<div class="container">
		<div id="content-area" class="clearfix">
			<div id="left-area">
		<?php
			//dcrosbie show parent post info
				if ((int) $post_parent_qry > 0) {
