Sacred Curiosity

Curiosity slows us down, tunes us in for transformation, pushes past shame, activates awe, and rewrites with hope. What if our most accessible resource for healing and transformation is ready and waiting to be harnessed? When everything feels gray and hopeless, curiosity emerges as an unexpected path back to color and life. Sacred Curiosity explores how the simple practice of remaining open to wonder can become a powerful force for personal and communal renewal. Through personal stories, spiritual reflection, and practical ideas, Britney Winn Lee reveals how curiosity slows us down when life feels overwhelming, builds bridges across our deepest divisions, pushes past shame toward liberation, and rewilds our domesticated spirits. Neither a theological treatise nor a scientific study, and yet somehow a wonder-filled blend of the two, this book offers a heartfelt exploration of curiosity as both grace and practice. Lee writes as a fellow pilgrim who has experienced curiosity's transformative power firsthand--hating and fearing less through its freeing and connective guidance. With reflection questions for individuals or groups, the book invites us to experience curiosity not as a luxury or personality trait, but as an indispensable value for navigating our complex world. It's an invitation to follow breadcrumbs of wonder toward a more generous, hopeful way of being. For anyone seeking renewal amid exhaustion or connection across difference, this book suggests that God--and healing, wholeness, and resurrection--might be found not only in being correct, but in being curious.
