CJ Mahaney of Sovereign Grace Ministries is writing a very helpful blog series called “The Pastor and Personal Criticism.” While it’s geared toward pastors, I believe it’s very helpful in dealing with personal criticism for all Christians. I really encourage you to read these as I am so that we will be better helped to handle personal criticism in a godly way the next time it comes a-knocking.
- The Pastor and Personal Criticism
- The Pastor’s Temptation when Criticism Arrives
- Learning Wisdom by Embracing Criticism
- A Kind and Painful Bruising
- The Pastor’s Wife and Her Role when Criticism Arrives
- Adding a Few Smudges to My Moral Portrait
- Deal Gently with Your Critics
- Why Faithful Pastors Will Be Criticized

I’ve seen this promoted on facebook but haven’t checked it out yet–but I plan to. We’ll have to digest it together along with some Chinese food!
You name the place and time, brother. I’ll come strong like Bruce Lee! The articles really are good and helpful.
All I can say is “Soon and very soon, we are going to eat Chinese!”
Hopefully sooner than later!
