Romans has shaped centuries of faith, and its truths still land the same way today—convicting, clarifying, and pointing us straight to Jesus. This book lays out the gospel in full: our need, God's provision, and the freedom that comes when grace, not performance, becomes our foundation. It's a book for the anxious and the striving, for the burdened and exhausted, for the secure and the doubting.

The words of Romans tell us that nothing—not fear, not failure, not the whole of creation—can separate us from the love of God in Christ!

Whether you're new to faith or have walked with Jesus for decades, Romans meets you exactly where you are and calls you deeper.

Jesus asked more questions than anyone else in Scripture—and none of them were meant to trap or shame.

In this episode, Mandy Pallock explores Jesus as the Master Questioner and shows how His questions invited people into deeper faith, honest reflection, and restored purpose. From the temple courts to the shoreline after the resurrection, Jesus used questions to draw people closer rather than push them away.

You’ll discover how Jesus’s questions:

• Engage hearts without judgment

• Invite reflection without pressure

• Restore and commission with compassion

"Ask Questions Like Jesus" invites you to consider:
What might change if you learned to ask questions the way Jesus did?

Can you question God without losing your faith? Yes—and Habakkuk shows you how. This prophet brought his rawest questions to God and discovered honest protest is an act of faith. Learn three marks of questioning God: trust His character, verbalize your confusion, expect His answer. Protest isn't rebellion—it's relationship. Your "How long, Lord?" is safe with Him.

Also read: Matthew 9 and Colossians 1:11-12.

When anger rises, God often responds with a question rather than a rebuke.
