We innately wonder about the world, one another, ourselves, and our Creator. But fear of the unknown, cultural taboos, technology, or even church leaders can smother our curiosity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePopular writer Lore Ferguson Wilbert has belonged to Christian communities that discouraged curiosity. The point of the Christian life was to have the right answers, and asking questions reflected a wavering faith. But Wilbert came to discover that the Bible is a permission slip to anyone who wants to ask questions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReflecting her own theological trajectory toward a more contemplative, expansive faith, Wilbert invites readers to foster curiosity as a spiritual habit. This book explores questions God asks us, questions we ask God, and questions we ask each other. Christianity is not about knowing good answers, says Wilbert, but about asking good questions--ones that foster deeper intimacy with God and others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Curious Faith\u003c\/i\u003e invites readers to go beyond pat answers and embrace curiosity, rather than certainty, as a hallmark of authentic faith.
