Introversion and extroversion are the ends of a continuum of human temperaments. Temperaments or personality traits are part of who we are.
Introverts and extroverts are both unique individuals created by God.
Introverts tend to recharge by spending time alone or in small groups, while extroverts gain energy from being around others and engaging in social activities.
It’s fascinating how God has made each person with different personality traits and preferences.
In the Bible, we see examples of both introverted and extroverted personalities.
Moses was known to be more introverted, needing time alone with God on Mount Sinai.
Peter was more extroverted, boldly preaching to large crowds.
Both personalities have their strengths and can be used by God for His purposes.
