It’s not your job or calling in life to make people happy. And despite your best efforts, it would be impossible to do.

All of us in ministry can take heart from the Apostle Paul’s reminder in Galatians 1:10. “Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.”

The reality of life (and definitely of ministry work) is that people complain. It may not be good or godly, but it is going to happen. Sometimes, people will even complain about you, to you, or about your loved ones. At times, people will be thoughtless in their comments. Other times, they will be downright rude.

In today’s episode, we are not going to try to pretend that these moments don’t hurt. They usually do. And we are not going to try to brainstorm ways to get people to stop complaining.

But we are not going to let those complaints control how we feel, think, or act. Instead, we are going to look at some practical tips for how you can keep a positive attitude even when people are complaining!

After all, you are not trying to please people, but to please Christ.
