Faith can be a tough concept to be grasped. Whether you are young or old, male or female, it is considered by many in today's culture to be an important aspect in life, an all-important achievement. It's not as easy as people make it out to be, however.
How can you tell if a Lutheran is extroverted? He'll look at YOUR shoes. With this stereotypical Lutheran mentality, many Lutherans glide through life ignoring and hiding any doubts or suspicions they may have. I myself am afraid to mention anything regarding faith struggles to anyone other than my close friends. We Lutherans need to learn how to explore the necessary questions of faith, making us all stronger Christians, rather than pushing them aside and letting them slowly destroy you and your faith, from the inside out.
