Thursday, June 6: In today's episode of The Daily Grind, we continue the exploration of Jesus' use of questions throughout his ministry. Today we consider five instances where Jesus asked profound questions that not only addressed physical healing but also touched on spiritual enlightenment, forgiveness, grace, and personal transformation. From challenging religious traditions to extending forgiveness, Jesus used questions to reveal compassion and guide people towards transformation. They encourage us to question traditions, recognize the worth of others, and actively participate in our spiritual growth.

• Does the Law allow healing on the Sabbath or not? (Luke 14:3) – Said to the religious leaders.
• And my favorite that Jesus asked a paralyzed man: Do you want to get well? (John 5:6)

Tuesday, June 4: In today’s episode of The Daily Grind, we delve into the profound questions Jesus asked about identity, highlighting the significance of personal belief over public opinion. Jesus, known for asking more questions than he answered, sought to guide his disciples’ understanding of his true nature, not for his own affirmation but to solidify their faith. By examining the scriptures from Mark, Luke, and Matthew, we explore how Jesus used questions to challenge his followers to reflect on who they believe he is and the impact of this belief on their lives.
