Listen "Criticism vs Admiration"
Episode Synopsis
When we encounter excellence, what prompts us to critique rather than admire?
Fr. Mike suggests that this tendency often stems from jealousy and insecurity. He says humans are made to admire all that is praiseworthy. When we witness remarkable talent in athletics, academics, or the arts, we should take the opportunity to commend the hard work and discipline that leads to greatness.
God made us to appreciate excellence and work to cultivate it in our own lives.
