Synopsis

Unlock the power of Jesus' questions to transform your spiritual life. Go deeper in your times with the Lord.

Readers said, “this book challenged me,” and, “kept me coming back for more.”

A collection of 52 short reflections on the most intriguing questions that Jesus asked or that people asked Jesus. All come from the Gospels or Acts.

  • Use it like a devotional.
  • Works well for group study in a small group or book club.

Understanding Jesus' questions will help the reader to grow in spiritual maturity. Some of Jesus' parables are explained because He gave them as answers to questions.

The book is a commentary on the most interesting questions in people’s interactions with Jesus:

  • The Samaritan woman at the well,
  • Nicodemus,
  • Mary and Martha.
  • What was Satan doing when he challenged Jesus, "If you are the Son of God . . ."?
  • Do you wonder what is the unforgiveable sin against the Holy Spirit?
  • What did Jesus mean by the sign of Jonah?
  • Jesus’ questions in the Sermon on the Mount are explored and many more too.

Jesus asked questions to engage His listeners or to challenge their thinking. His disciples often wanted to understand Him but sometimes to use Him; His opponents sharpened them as weapons against Him. Some of Jesus’ questions seem stupid, even rude—they’re not! As always with Jesus, there’s more to everything He said than at first appears. The interactions have lasting value too—for us. What lies behind the questions we sometimes ask God? What do His questions teach us about ourselves? His questions examine us and encourage us to think and live more like Him.
