*I received this book from Bhbloggers in exchange for my honest feedback*

The Curious Christian gives the reader an idea how being curious is a great thing to be and how it may
Make your life more rich by being so.
The author makes you feel as if you are sitting with him drinking an espresso chit chatting about religion, family life, life in general with some clever quotes in between. Not to mention the cover is breathtaking and the writing has a personal feel to it.

No matter if you attend church, don’t believe or have stepped away from church for some time this book is for you. ( )
