Publisher Description

In Quiet Faith, Judson Edwards writes, “For all of the fine qualities we introverts bring to the table, the truth remains that we are typically viewed as people in need of a personality upgrade. Those of us who are active in the church find that to be especially true in the community of faith. We are consistently, though subtly and indirectly, reminded that we need to be bolder, louder, and more certain in our faith. If we ever really got filled with the Spirit, the church seems to suggest, we would become extroverts.”

In eight finely crafted chapters, Edwards looks at key issues like evangelism, interpreting the Bible, dealing with doubt, and surviving the church from the perspective of a confirmed, but sometimes reluctant, introvert. In the process, he offers some provocative insights that introverts will find helpful and reassuring.

Quiet Faith offers a thoughtful, honest, and entertaining look at what it means to be a Christian in the twenty-first century.

Quiet Faith

Thank you Judson Edwards for this insightful book. You are not alone!

For so long I have felt guilty about my lack of enthusiasm at church. I feel frustrated in planning meetings because I'm not finished thinking and praying when everyone else is shouting "Forward, March!" I am constantly asking "why" and not finding anyone else who questions. While my friends gush about the "awesome" worship at large events, I wonder why I was ready to leave after 15 minutes.

My lack of enthusiasm is not about Jesus or the Kingdom. I see that now. Time to find out new ways to live out my faith according to my distinct set of strengths and stop trying to fit the mold.
