When was the last time you asked someone more experienced, “What advice would you give me?” Welcome to Curious, a five-part series that invites all tired Christians to rediscover and reclaim their God-given gift of curiosity. In this episode, I share something inspired by a conversation I had with several college students, hungry to learn more. Tune in to hear the top 20 lessons I’ve cultivated after 20 years in business. You’ll leave challenged to ask others what God has taught them through their work -- and to share your own experience with others as well.
