Christian News Headlines: "No one enjoys being criticized. It’s a bruise to our egos and frustrating when our best efforts are being slammed. But not all criticism is bad. In fact, the Bible tells us, “wounds from a friend can be trusted” (Prov. 27:6). If you’re a leader—whether it be in a business, church, community, or anywhere else—you have the responsibility to talk to your critics and respond thoughtfully to their complaints and concerns."
