Review Quotes

"[A] call to a vital and powerful relationship with Jesus...delivered with a prophetic power that will bring many readers to a point of decision."---Dr. Donald Fowler, former book review editor, Grace Theological Review

"A journey with THE INQUISITIVE CHRIST through our failures, confusion, and suffering to the authentic and intimate relationship with the God our restless hearts long for."---Dr. Mark D. Allen, executive director, Center for Apologetics and Cultural Engagement, Liberty University, and coauthor of Apologetics at the Cross

"Cara L. T. Murphy offers an exquisitely unique and refreshing look at the spacious questions of Jesus Christ. As she skillfully guides you into their rich and powerful complexity, you will find yourself on an adventure with God that is profoundly intimate and real."---Dr. Lisa Sosin, psychotherapist, professor, Ph.D program director

"It's been a long time since I've read a book with such lovely prose. It's been a long time since I've read a book that asks such probing questions. THE INQUISITIVE CHRIST is an exquisite work, one for those who seek not only truth, but goodness and beauty, too."---Karen Swallow Prior, author of On Reading Well and Fierce Convictions

"Jesus used two disarming methods to lovingly lay bare the human heart: question and story. In THE INQUISITIVE CHRIST, Cara Murphy, by way of Scripture and strikingly honest personal stories, leads us deep into the questions Jesus asked--and still asks. The Master, we learn, never uses questions to shame or accuse but always to invite and illuminate and usher us, if we're willing, into freedom and life."---Brian Morykon, director of communications, Renovaré
