“If Jesus was walking the earth today and a little child asked him if the Easter Bunny was real, what do you think he would say?” This is one of the questions Rick Lawrence offers in Group’s One Hundred Fifty Jesus-Centered Questions. Designed to help sharpen our paradigm of Jesus, this collection of bounded index cards can spontaneously transform conversations in any environment.
Each question is written with a creative edge that will help both skeptics and Christians alike. While most are worded to provide a healthy measure of open-ended discussion, some cards can seem a bit leading. The initial thoughts presented in the introduction can help overcome these few exceptions, though, inspiring original questions to provocatively prod the students forward spiritually.

The cards can be easily stored in a vehicle or placed on a table, practically helping enhance conversations with teenagers while providing plenty of inspiration for follow-up mentoring.
