Curiosity can lean us to new places and it can change how we see the people and communities around us.

Our service Sunday, we’ll reflect on how travel, language and everyday encounters with differences can shape our understanding of the world. From experiences abroad to differences within our own country. We’ll consider how curiosity when paired with attention and humility can deepen empathy and connection.

Service by Perri Gardner

Curiosity is an innate instinct that drives us to explore our world and ourselves. We tend to think of curiosity as a childlike attribute, and it is, but it’s not solely for children. Research shows that adults who experience curiosity and seek new information to fulfill that instinct are rewarded with better brain function, deeper learning experiences, more fulfilling personal relationships, and better mental health than adults who do not.
