This Summer at New Hope: Questions Jesus Asks Us
Jesus didn’t simply teach — He invited. He opened conversations. He asked questions that reached into the heart. This July we’ll explore four of those life‑shaping questions:
What are you looking for
Why are you afraid
Do you want to be made well
Who do you say that I am
Each week we’ll listen for how these questions still meet us — in our searching, in our storms, in our longing for healing, and in our growing faith.
Come with your curiosity, your summer‑season spirit, and your openness to the questions that shape a life with Christ.
Sometimes the best answers begin with a question.
