Description :
You don't have to be in ministry for long to experience the sting of criticism. While it cannot be avoided, we can control our response to it and even turn the pain into a blessing. Rev. Mostyn Robert helps you, especially church leaders, learn from Jesus and Apostle Paul to keep a cool head, avoid self-pity, and be encouraged with the comfort of Christ. He also offers practical advise to respond to that email of complaint and how to turn the criticism into a blessing.
This book is a must for all those starting out in pastoral ministry and essential for all those wishing to continue in it. By a combination of superb biblical exposition and sensitive application reflecting a wealth of personal ministerial experience, the author not only shows how to endure criticism but flourish through it. A little gem of a book. --Melvin Tinker "Director of Theology, The Christ Church Newland Network, Hull."
To be able to handle criticism well is a skill which all pastors need to learn. Any ministry, even the best, will take flak from time ti time and it is easy to fall into crippling self-pity. When we are criticized what we need is a cool head, Biblical common sense and the comfort of Christ. This excellent book provides us with all three. --John Benton "Director for Pastoral Support, The Pastor's Academy, London Seminary"
