The Christian world - and notably the charismatic and evangelical world - seems dominated by extroverts. Those who are easy with exuberant worship, relish large crowds and are recharged by fellowship seem to set the tone. Those whose faith is at its most meaningful in private worship or one-to-one conversation often feel excluded - as if we need to shout before God will move in power. Introverts, those who recharge their batteries in private, find charismatic culture can, on occasions, seem shallow, loud, driven and insensitive, but yet love the stuff God is doing. Is introversion a sin to be forgiven, an illness to be healed or an oppression to be defeated? "It is none of those things," emphasizes Mark Tanner. "Introversion is a creation gift. It is part of the image of God." Mark explains it is ok to worship God with the nature you have been given; the Holy Spirit can use introverts; and the world needs both.
