As some of you may know, I am an introvert ... in other words I love to be alone. To give an example to all my extrovert friends - I'm completely happy when at a party to be near an exit, next to the wall, examining a potted plant - those type things. From a Christian perspective, however, this can be really hard on outreach. Christian Bible Studies dot com (site now gone), has a great article that I would love to share called, How can I reach out to others when I am an introvert (old, broken link). (archived link)
For all my extrovert friends ... I would love for you to also read the following article called Caring for Your Introvert. (now behind a pay wall)
That is a lot of reading, I know, (here is the guilt trip) if you really love me then you would read these articles.
