    The Introvert-Friendly Pastor

    The Introverted Apostle: Encouraging Church Leaders to Support Introverts “Meet and greet time” during church? For introverts, that may qualify as spiritual warfare. 😂 This week, we dive into how churches can better support introverts without treating them like broken extroverts. What if the quiet person in the back row is one of the most gifted people in your church? We unpack how churches can better understand introverts, create healthier ministry environments, and help everyone feel seen, valued, and welcome in the Body of Christ. Plus, Father Alvin and Pastor Jeff bring plenty of humor, wisdom, and painfully relatable church moments. From “introvert recharge rooms” to cinnamon roll ministry, this episode proves there’s room in the Church for every personality God created. Guests: Jeff Marcoe (of First Nazarene Church, Amarillo) & Father Alvin Tshuma (of St. Mary's Catholic Church, Umbarger) Share, like, follow, and all that jazz... https://stcapn.com #CAPN #Podcast #TheIntrovertedApostle #Introvert #IntrovertLife #IntrovertsUnite #ChristianIntrovert #QuietTime #ChurchCommunity #ChurchInvolvement #FaithInAction #Introversion #Extroversion #CarloAcutis #DioceseOfAmarillo #JesusChrist #Christian #Catholic #Interfaith #Christianity #Catholicism #InterfaithDialogue #ChristianCommunity #CatholicChurch #PracticalChristianity #LivingFaith #RomanCatholic #TexasCatholic #Amarillo Have feedback?
