I found the quote below on evangelizing and I really liked it. Guess what, I’m an introvert, I like to think about things. It occurred to me that Jesus himself often asked these sorts of questions–for example, “who do you say I am?” Does it appeal to any other introverts among us?
“The verbal tool of exploring mystery together is not confrontation or preaching but dialogue. We subject ourselves to the same questions we pose to others, and as we traverse them together, we may arrive at surprising conclusions we could never have reached when simply trying to defeat one another’s logic. Our questions are open ended, granting the other person the freedom to respond or not to respond. The questions stick with us, even haunt us, long after we ask them, and we await insight together. The process is more important than an immediate decision.”
