Presbyterian minister and worked with

a team of student leaders at Claremont

College, many of whom were introverts.

The team became a kind of laboratory

for experimenting with introverted

forms of leadership and ministry.

They focused on one-on-one and small

group interactions rather than on large

groups, and McHugh helped the students

find rhythms in their lives that allowed

them to claim the solitude they

needed and enjoyed, and to have social

energy left over for leading others. He

urged them to find the courage to speak

up and take risks in meeting new

people.

A few years later, when social media

exploded and evangelical bloggers started

posting about their experiences,

written evidence of the schism between

introverts and extroverts within the

evangelical church finally emerged.
