In this episode of the Brother Byron Podcast, we dive into the often-overlooked motivations behind criticism. Why do we feel the need to critique others, especially when it's unconstructive? We explore how criticism can serve as a defense mechanism, a way to mask our own insecurities or elevate our self-esteem. More often than not, those who are quick to criticize—particularly within the context of ministry—are the ones who are not actively engaged in the work themselves. Join us as we unpack these dynamics, offering a fresh perspective on how to transform our tendency to criticize into an opportunity for self-reflection and growth.
