Curiosity opens doors to profound spiritual discovery. Today we journey to ancient Athens, where the Apostle Paul encounters a city saturated with idols, temples, and philosophical thinking. Among countless shrines to various deities, he spots something remarkable – an altar dedicated "to an unknown God." This small acknowledgment of mystery becomes Paul's perfect entry point for sharing the Gospel.

What happens when we recognize the limits of our understanding? Paul seizes this moment to introduce the Athenians to the Creator who transcends human-made temples and idols. The God who needs nothing from us is simultaneously the source of everything we have – "in him we live and move and exist." This paradox challenges both ancient and modern assumptions about spirituality.

The climax of Paul's message focuses on the resurrection of Jesus – the definitive proof of God's plan for humanity. This proclamation divides his audience, just as it continues to do today. Some dismiss it with laughter, while others lean in with genuine curiosity, wanting to explore further. This reaction pattern hasn't changed in two thousand years. The resurrection remains the ultimate spiritual curiosity – a historical claim with cosmic implications that demands a personal response. Are you brushing it off, or does it awaken hope and wonder in your heart? Today's invitation is clear: embrace the curiosity of faith. Lean in, listen closely, and discover the incredible power of resurrection that transforms lives forever.
