What Do You Seek

Throughout the Gospels, Jesus teaches people and proclaims the kingdom of God. But that's not all. He also questions -- a lot. Jesus asks questions that challenge and unsettle. Questions that cut to the heart of human experience. Questions that -- like a plow plunging deeply into hard soil -- split life open. Distinguished theologian Michael Buckley in this book meditates on fourteen key personal questions that Jesus asks in the Gospel of John -- such questions as "What do you seek?" "Do you know what I have done to you?" "How can you believe?" "Do you take offense at this?" "Do you love me?" Readers will be challenged to new ways of thinking and living as they seek to follow Jesus.

The content of this book is about the awakening of the soul and the connection to our source of life. As we evolve and grow spiritually, we begin to search and seek for answers to some of the questions we have in our minds. We look for the purpose of our existence and what that all means. In seeking, you find that there really is a higher purpose, and that your soul yearns to find that. The soul begins the process of awakening and begins its ascension back to its source. This is the journey of the soul!
