Synopsis

The unexamined life is not worth living. Valuable insights and growth in faith result from a healthy curiosity about spiritual matters. Christians are never fully Christian; they are still becoming, always under construction. Faith is never static, it is dynamic. People know a lot about Jesus, very few know what Jesus is about. The Inquiring Christian promotes that what Jesus teaches matters to people, has implications, and demands explicit responses. Knowing about Jesus rarely changes a person; knowing what Jesus is about demands a radical response. Jesus’ teaching raises many questions but gives few answers. Olsen examines why Christians are still under construction. Christians need not fear having doubts about faith. Olsen introduces dialogue as a teaching tool and presents innovative methods of Bible study that answers the question: “What difference does Jesus’ teaching make in our place and in our time?”
