The Curious Christian

How Discovering Wonder Enriches Every Part of Life

By: Barnabas Piper

Narrated by: Barnabas Piper

Curiosity is such a childish word, right? Not so fast. Just because we grow up, it doesn't mean we should lose our wonder about the world or the people around us. When we do, we lose so much, because curious is how God made us to be. Without curiosity a Christian's life is incomplete. His relationship with God is incomplete. His connections to others are incomplete. He doesn't know how to interact with the world around him - politics, media, art, entertainment, science, and so much more simply fly past or overwhelm him. Without curiosity he can never discover deep things, deep connections God tucked below the banal surface of life.

Author Barnabas Piper explores what curiosity is and how it affects relationships. What if people so sought to learn about each other that the most unlikely people became advocates and friends? It would be transformative, and it would stem from curiosity.

The first few lines had me in tears.

As a Mother to boys, a homeschool teacher, a lover of learning and naturally curious person his opening thoughts really moved me. I agreed with alot of his propositions and ideas, however I'm still thinking though his connections between curiosity and the lost. A great book over all.
