Introverts in the Church

Sometimes I come across a book that was basically written for me. This was one of those, being that I am very much an introvert and also very involved in church and ministry. I learned a lot about myself and who God created me to be, an introvert with a valuable skill-set all my own that I can bring to any setting, including church.

This book was packed with information, which made it a slower read for me. But it was all fascinating! And it was at the same time an immensely practical book. I would recommend it for any introvert trying to find their place in ministry or in a church setting, or an extrovert in ministry trying to understand their introverted coworkers and friends a little better.

There were chapters covering topics like cultural views on introversion, the physiology of introversion (SO interesting - new info for me!), introverts' relationships with God, introverts and Christian community, introverted church leaders, introverts and evangelism, etc. This is a resource I will be returning to quite a bit as I continue in ministry and in being a part of a church.
