Good Questions Have Small Groups Talking

How to use questions to stimulate life-changing discussions.

By: Josh Hunt

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Want to lead a Bible study that people actually look forward to? Start with good questions.

Good Questions Have Groups Talking is a practical, story-rich guide to transforming your small group, Sunday School class, or Bible study from a lecture hall into a community of deep, meaningful conversation. Josh Hunt—teacher, trainer, and small group enthusiast—has spent decades equipping leaders to do one thing really well: ask the kind of questions that get people talking… and keep them coming back.

Inside this book, you’ll discover:

• Why good questions—not lectures—are the best way to teach adults

• How to structure your group’s first five minutes to set the tone for the entire hour

• A dozen types of questions that drive discussion, spark honesty, and lead to transformation

• How to ask questions that balance head knowledge, heart engagement, and real-life application

• Tips for dealing with quiet groups, dominant talkers, and awkward silences

You’ll learn how to ask “jump-ball questions” that invite debate without division… “testimony questions” that get people sharing their stories… and “commitment questions” that gently lead people to obedience. Whether your group is made up of Bible scholars or brand-new believers, this book will show you how to create an environment where everyone feels safe, seen, and stirred by Scripture.

Josh writes with humor, humility, and a deep passion for seeing lives changed in circles, not just rows. His approach is simple, reproducible, and field-tested in thousands of churches. If you want more than just teaching—you want transformation—this book will help you lead the kind of group that people talk about long after the closing prayer.

Because good questions don’t just get people talking. They change lives.
