Synonym for 'Brings us to'? Hey I'm looking for something to replace the phrase 'brings us to another point'. Help greatly appreciated!?

Depends on the context (this shouldn't be happening in formal writing it is far too conversational an idiom) but if this is a discussion or verbal presentation you could say, leading on from this ... this raises another question ... incidentally ... or by the way...

Leads us to an alternative consideration.

"takes us to"....
