How To Check If The Traveling Pastor Has An Attitude Problem

By Judy Sullivan


The individual should be aware that a traveling pastor is not an angel. Not everyone who works at the church is a good person. There are some who actually have severe attitude problems and they even hold a high position at the church. If the person wants to know whether the said professional has an attitude problem, here are the things to check up on.

First of all, try to see if the said professional is self-centered. This may manifest itself in the amount of needs that a professional has. The professional can be classified as self-centered if his or her needs is paramount to the church's needs. There are even times when his or her needs take precedence over this church.

Just because the said professional works in a church does not mean that he or she is not prone to mistakes. The said professional really has an attitude problem if he or she does not show any signs of remorse when they make mistakes or when they are caught for their misdeeds. They will not even offer a heartfelt apology or ask for mercy for those things.

Since they are unable to ask for forgiveness, all they can do is blame the mistakes on other people. This is usually the case for those with high blaming behavior. The said behavior is the type which drives people to project all of their faults on to others. When there is something wrong, the mistake was never theirs.

It will be bad if they are unreliable too. The people at the church should be reliable, especially since they are being looked up to by the less unfortunate souls. If these souls cannot rely on the church, they will get lost even further. A professional who has an unreliable disposition should just be evicted from his or her position.

There are also those professionals who may be aware of the consequences of their actions but choose to ignore it. It is just like they do not even care that there are other people who will be affected by the actions that they take. They have little, if not zero, conscience. All they care about is their own well-being.

A professional who has attitude problems will most likely be a pathological liar. They can easily lie to other people, especially if they think that the said lie will further their image. They do not think their lie will get discovered too. And in the case that it does, they will just imply that they never said anything about it in the first place.

Those who rationalizes easily should be classified as someone with attitude problems. While there are good things about rationalizing, someone who twist conversations just to gain something at another person's expense is not normal. When they get trapped, they just continue talking or they change the subject. At times, they might get extremely mad.

There are many other signs that the person can check up on to see if the said traveling pastor has an attitude problem. If the person can do a good job at this, then he or she can easily avoid working with such professionals. It is better to be near a professional who is good-natured, after all.
