How To Check If The Traveling Pastor Has An Attitude Problem

By Judy Sullivan


There are times when people are required to work together with a traveling pastor. If this is the case, it is only normal to know if the superior is someone who got an attitude problem. If the person can determine who is good-natured and who has a foul nature, then one can easily adapt to the situation. Here are some tips to know who has an attitude problem at the church.

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.

Being unable offer a heartfelt apology or ask for forgiveness might also be due to the fact that the said professional has a high blaming behavior. This is the kind of behavior that will just project all of a person's faults on to other people. This means that whatever happens, any mistake is never his or her fault.

If they are unreliable, then they are surely someone with an attitude problem. As a professional who is working in a church, there are times when the less unfortunate people will rely on them for a few necessities. Being an unreliable person means that he or she can change mind and even reverse his or her decisions any time.

A priest can make his or her own decision, being a grown up and all. However, those with an attitude problem usually cannot make a decision that does not have any bad consequence to other people. Even if they know of this, they do not care whatever happens to other people. They just pick the choice that is beneficial to them alone.

Pathological lying is also a trait of such professionals who have attitude problems. This means that they can lie if they consider this to be helpful to their image and if the lie will not be discovered. If the lie is discovered or followed up on, they will simply imply that the other person is wrong and that the lie was never said 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 numerous signs that a person can still check up on. Be sure to know and identify these signs early on so that one does not have to be positioned near a traveling pastor who has a severe attitude problem. Being aware of who is good-natured in the church will also benefit the person a lot.
