<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>A little curiosity is essential to growth. In this engaging and interactive book, pastor and spiritual director Casey Tygrett explores the benefits of a healthy curiosity in our spiritual lives. When we make curiosity a spiritual practice, we open up to new ways of knowing God and knowing ourselves as well. Come and discover the power of asking questions.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p> <strong>Curiosity is essential to growth.</strong> A little curiosity moves us deeper into the lives of the people around us. A little curiosity leads to opportunities we never knew existed. A little curiosity helps us understand our own strange emotions. A little curiosity, if focused on Jesus, will make us more like him. Pastor and spiritual director Casey Tygrett loves to ask questions. There's a difficult line to walk between what we need to know and what falls into the realm of mystery, he 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. We begin to lose the one thing that fiercely energizes the transformation of our souls--something beautiful, poetic, joyful, and happily disruptive: <em>curiosity</em>.? When we make curiosity a spiritual practice, we open up to new ways of knowing God and knowing ourselves as well. Come and discover the power of asking questions.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><em>Becoming Curious</em> is wonderfully refreshing, especially for those who feel Christianity has too many answers and not enough questions. This book will turn many deep convictions on their heads. Taken seriously, it can transform the way in which we live out faith every day.</p>--C. Christopher Smith, Relevant 2017 Summer Reading Guide, May-June 2017<br><br><p>Combining the spiritual practice of curiosity with the art of asking soulful questions is a salutary path to inward transformation and social change. Just consider what would happen if through every community, people asked, 'What can I do for you?'</p>--Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat, Spirituality & Practice, May 2017<br><br><p>Curiosity may have killed the cat, but for Casey Tygrett it is also an essential ingredient to human growth. It takes only a little curiosity to move us toward knowing our friends better, to stumble across unforeseen opportunities, to understand our own thoughts and feelings. Pastor, blogger, spiritual director and author, Tygrett takes an engaging approach to being more curious. When we stop asking questions, he says, we give up. That's how asking questions becomes a spiritual practice.</p>--Chauncey Mabe, Success Magazine, April 28, 2017<br><br><p>Recommended for new believers or those needing spiritual reorientation.</p>--Gerald Wisz, Christian Market, June 2017<br>
