Nice! You read a lot more fiction than I did lol. I have a hunch that I’ll read more in 2026… How was Introverts in the Church? It sounds fascinating!
I used to almost read exclusively fiction, but I’m going to branch out into more history and religion.
Introverts was a decent, easy read. He points a lot of the problems, mostly with American-side Christianity, with being enamored too much with rockstar pastor-types. They have a place in the church like everyone should, but their gifts are considered required for leadership, and that tends to spill down to laymen. We expect Christians to be mini-versions of their extroverted pastors so you can overlook a lot of us quiet, unassuming types.
