Maybe you think you know Jesus pretty well—the Son of God who is kind, gentle, and loving. But dig deeper in Scripture, and you’ll discover some things Jesus said that are… well, hard to swallow. Those passages often leave us, His modern-day followers, with more questions than answers.

As you explore the historical and cultural context surrounding the four tough sayings found in this Bible study (the rich young ruler in Mark 10, the Canaanite woman in Matt. 15, the unforgivable sin in Matt. 12, and a contradiction about who Jesus is in Matt. 10 and Luke 12), you can develop a level of intimacy with your group that encourages everyone to continue asking questions long after this study is complete. And hopefully, you’ll discover that questions and doubts are OK—and can usually help to deepen and strengthen your faith.
