There are many times when we are focused on getting the right answer and there are times that this is important. However, sometimes it is more important to ask the right question. Many times we respond to God the way that the disciples did in John 4. They came back from a village and found him talking with a woman, a Samaritan woman who we know had a questionable reputation. They marveled that he spoke with a woman, yet the scripture is clear that they didn't ask him about it. We often hesitate from asking questions about scriptures or topics which puzzle us. This often doesn't serve us well in our search for Truth. Especially, as teachers it is important that we learn to ask and encourage those we are teaching to ask questions which are real to them. This is a vital part of learning and owning our faith.
