Questions Outreach Proxe
The Questions Proxe helps us share the gospel through engaging people's spiritual questions and uses the story of Jesus' encounter with a blind man to invite them to encounter Jesus themself by receiving prayer for areas they desire healing.
These three interactive visual displays are designed to spark spiritual conversations and invite healing.
- Panel 1: We invite someone to ask one of four common questions about God.
- Panel 2: We hear Jesus ask a blind man, "What do you want me to do for you?" and offer prayer for where the person wants healing.
- Panel 3: We share the gospel in a way that highlights God's response to the 4 questions.

Over five weeks, these 60-minute Bible studies address the significant questions in the proxe and include practices and prayers that encourage us to move from engaging questions with our minds to engaging Jesus himself. This is a great follow up for those you meet at the proxe that want to engage deeper with the questions and Jesus.
