What if the key to a deeper, more meaningful life lies in the questions you ask?

In The Art of Asking Better Questions, J.R. Briggs offers a thoughtful exploration of how intentional, well-crafted questions can transform relationships, leadership, and spiritual growth. Guided by the wisdom of Jesus as the ultimate question-asker, this book introduces four levels of questions designed to address different purposes and provide practical tools to improve your conversations.

If you want information, Google it. But if you want wisdom and connection, you need to become a person who asks better questions. Briggs argues that the quality of your life is determined by the quality of the questions you ask God, yourself, and others. There’s not a single area where improving the quality of your questions won't improve your life and the lives of those around you.

In this book, you'll:

  • Explore why questions are so important (but why we don't ask them very much).
  • Discover how questions affect our faith.
  • Study how questions influence our ability to lead.
  • Learn simple, practical ways to ask better questions.

With its sharp insights and actionable guidance, The Art of Asking Better Questions invites you to reflect on how the questions you ask God, yourself, and others can lead to a fuller, more vibrant life of faith and purpose. Rediscover the art of inquiry—your relationships, leadership, and faith will never be the same.
