Value of Questions

Good group Bible studies and adult Sunday School classes are built on questions. These aren't sermons, but need to be interactive. And questions are the key! (That's why I wrote "52 Model Questions.")

I was delighted to see Scott Aughtmon's blog post, "Could you change your life if you changed your questions?" An excerpt:

"We don't have to have all the right answers, but we SHOULD know the right questions. Matt Rawlins in his book "The Lottery: A question can change your life" said these things through one of his characters in this story that's modern day parable..."...successful people ask better questions, and as a result, they get better answers."

"The right question, at the right time, in the right place, with the right people is one of the most powerful tools in the hand of any man, woman or God."Skim through the gospels and look at how many times the pharisees, the sadducees-- even the disciples were asking the wrong question -- and Jesus had to correct them."
