Description

Pastor and spiritual director Casey Tygrett loves to ask questions. And in his new book, Becoming Curious, he introduces curiosity as a spiritual practice that opens new ways of knowing God and knowing ourselves.

"There's a difficult line to walk between what we need to know and what falls into the realm of mystery," Tygrett writes. "Walking that line often wears on our nerves and causes incredible tension, and so we settle for easy answers. We stop asking questions. We give up.
