Ask Real World Questions Real World Answers
Welcome to A.S.K - Ask. Seek. Knock.
'Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.' (Matthew 7:7-8).
We all have questions about Jesus, the Bible, the Christian faith and our culture today. The great news is that Jesus gives answers. These questions were gathered from teenagers in fifteen countries in five different continents. All of them are real questions from real teenagers.
52 short chapters. Each contains a question, a Bible passage, a Bible verse, a discussion, something to consider, recommended further reading and a prayer.
These answers may lead to more questions which is fine - but the main aim of this book is that you, the reader, come to see and know better the One who is the Answer, Jesus Christ.
