9781594716751: 25 Life-Changing Questions from the Gospels: Letting Jesus Lead You through the Stages of Spiritual Growth

Synopsis

Jesus used questions throughout his ministry, not to find out something he didn't know, but to probe into people's deepest, most unsettled spaces. Biblical scholar and retreat leader Allan F. Wright organises twenty-five questions Jesus asked into five spiritual stages that will lead you on the road to discipleship. In 25 Life-Changing Questions from the Gospels, you will see that you are no different from those Jesus questioned -- a grieving sister, a fearful friend, an incessant doubter. And you'll learn that his questions -- and the issues that they raise -- are just as relevant and life-changing to Catholics today as they were to Jesus' first followers. From spiritual seeker to faithful disciple of Christ -- you can become better able to embrace and share the life-giving power Jesus offers, and recognise Jesus for the wise teacher that he was and as the God who loves you still.|Jesus used questions throughout his ministry, not to find out something he didn't know, but to probe into people's deepest, most unsettled spaces.
