About this listen

In this episode of Unbottled, we explore the concept of curiosity and how it can be both a positive and negative force in our lives. We discuss how curiosity, when used within safe boundaries, can lead to healthy doubt and exploration, creative expression, and a deeper connection with God. However, when abused, curiosity can lead to negative consequences such as addiction and obsession. We also delve into how Jesus leverages our natural curiosity through the use of parables, drawing us in and inspiring us to connect more deeply with Him.

Pop the top and tune in to join the discussion and gain new insights into curiosity and how we manage it.
