Praise for THE INQUISITIVE CHRIST
“A brilliant and compelling inquiry into deep mystery…I was profoundly strengthened by THE INQUISITIVE CHRIST. It’s a message I needed today. This work matters and will change the world. It is perfectly timed for such an hour as this. This message deserves to live and breathe on shelves of curated libraries of the hungry hearted for years to come…It is fragrant and pregnant with the living, breathing, supernatural life of God. Cara Murphy turns us back to the questions reminding us that is his questions that will access us in the deepest places. The reflections after each chapter turned me both into my own story with new perspective and to the scriptures with fresh eyes and fresh hope. For those who are curious about slipping beyond the religious veil and wrestling with the mystery, the generosity of care and the audacity of hope embodied in Christ, this is a timeless read.” –Morgan Snyder, author of Becoming a King

“[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
“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, Renovare
