Jesus was renowned as a teacher. His closest followers called him Rabbi, which means teacher. His memorable stories caused people to apply their faith in new ways. Jesus’ sermon on the mount (found in Matthew 5-7) contains some of Christianity’s most powerful teachings.
Jesus also asked really good questions.
Jesus posed more than 300 questions during his teaching ministry, and during this month’s series of devotions we will look at 31 of them. Jesus asked questions that were profound, curious, open-ended, and challenging. Jesus wanted us to think carefully about living for and serving God in this world. And he directly answered only a handful of his own questions.
As we consider “Questions Jesus Asked,” may these reflections spur us on to live faithfully for the Lord who came so that we can have life.
This month’s author, Beth Fellinger, has more than 40 years of experience in pastoral ministry. She and her husband, Barry, have created a missional community in their neighborhood called the Ugly Couch Café, where they serve coffee at a blue picnic table in their front yard, pray with neighbors, and host faith gatherings on a weekly basis.
As you read the Today devotions this month, may you be refreshed, refocused, and renewed in God’s Word!
