How to Handle Criticism as a Youth Pastor...and Move On‪!‬ Ministry Coach: Youth Ministry Tips & Resources

Criticism can sting, especially when it's aimed at something you pour your heart into, like youth ministry.  In this episode, we will break down how to embrace critique with an open heart and mind, turning defensive knee-jerk reactions into opportunities for growth and understanding. Our goal is to reshape the way you view criticism in your student ministry and see it as opportunities to learn and lead with even greater empathy and resolve.

Some of the topics we will be covering are:  how to correctly sift through critical comments, weighing the worth of the critic's words based on their credibility and history rather than the volume of voices, why sometimes it's best to save your pearls for those truly open to the treasures you offer and unpacking the nuances of communication—reminding you that what's said, meant, and heard can often travel in different directions.  We want to be able to help you not just weather the storm of criticism but show you how to dance in the rain!
