Back Cover Copy
A look at the questions Jesus asks us—which enrich our understanding and faith.
In the Gospels, when people asked Jesus a question, he often replied with one of his own: “Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” “Why do you call me good?” British author Conrad Gempf invites readers to look at these questions and discover Jesus’ motivation. What could the second human being of the Trinity want to know that he doesn’t already? Gempf concludes that Jesus wants to know where we stand. He doesn’t need to know more facts; he wants to know us.
Reader ReviewsDespite some very minor editing problems, "Jesus Asked" is a fascinating conceptual book about the nature of who Jesus was. It's very different than what your Sunday School teacher may have taught you, but it is something that cannot go unaddressed in the Christian community. While the book's basic idea (Jesus asked more questions than he gave answers) is groundbreaking enough, the rest of the book, while sometimes very profound, is a quick, easy read that is definitely worth the time you take to read it.
