"And He said to them, 'What kind of conversation is that you have with one another as you walk and are sad?' Then the one whose name was Cleopas answered and said to Him, 'Are You the only stranger in Jerusalem, and have You not known the things which happened there in these days?' And He said to them, 'What things?' "
Luke 24:17-19a
Inquiring minds what to know!!! Actually, Jesus didn't have to ask; He already knew. In reviewing Jesus' teachings in Luke (the red letters), I was impressed by how many times in His teachings He asked a leading question in order to engage the listener. Instead of just laying on a heavy truth, He would get into the listener's mind by asking a question. That's a technique I need to develop. So, what do you think?
Today's Thought: Instead of just speaking truth, it is better to engage the person by asking a question and listening to the response.
Have a questioning day. Love you.
