Twenty Questions Jesus Asked
'Have you never read?' 'Who do you say I am?' 'Why are you so afraid?' This book reflects on twenty questions Jesus asked people during his ministry and considers how we might answer them for ourselves today.
In doing so, we can connect Jesus' teaching with daily life and with our walk of Christian discipleship.
Each devotional chapter concludes with a prayer, thought or meditation to help us wait upon God as we contemplate what he is asking us today.
Elizabeth Rundle has spent many years helping people connect with God through Scripture. Most recently she has contributed to BRF's Day by Day with God notes but she has also written over a dozen books of Bible reflections for a number of Christian publishers, including CWR and Kevin Mayhew. She has broadcast on local and national radio and prepared scripts for television 'epilogue' slots. She is ordained in the Methodist Church.
From The Diocese of Hereford Newspaper - Spring 2009
This small book is crammed full of thought provoking material as it takes us on a journey through Jesus' ministry and looks as some of the questions that He asked of the disciples, the Pharisees and individuals he me along the way. Each chapter ends with a prayer or reflection that relates the question back to us. This book is probably best suited to being used for Bible study either by individuals or groups and in my opinion could be adapted for use as a Lent study course. Alternatively the questions could form a good base for a sermon series.

'What is He asking you?' This question on the cover gives a clue to the stimulating content of Elizabeth Rundle's latest book. Jesus' Twenty Questions will all be familiar to bible readers but the thoughts the writer develops from these starting points make very interesting reading.
After providing the scriptural setting for each question she develops the thought taking it right into the life of the reader before spelling out a final challenge. Most chapters end in a Prayer or relevant point for Reflection, making it a very worthwhile read.
