Fr. Glenn: Giving…and Receiving…Criticism with Grace
By Rev. Glenn JonesCriticism—it’s something we’re quick to give, but loathe to receive. Even helpful and relevant criticism is often met with ire … though, certainly, when given in the spirit of good will, we would be foolish to disregard it out of hand.
Isn’t criticism/critique the whole purpose of grading in school, or even of peer review? Certainly everyone enjoys being validated, but we all can be blind to our own faults and failures. So, if we react dismissively or with hostility to any criticism whatever, how will we ever improve? Read More
