In a recent message, ministry leader Kathryn Krick offered guidance to Christians on how to respond when they notice something “off” in another person’s ministry. She emphasized the importance of leading with love, truth and humility rather than taking on the role of a judge.
“It’s good to feel this roaring lion heart for God’s people to not be deceived and for their eyes to be opened,” Krick acknowledged. However, she warned against the temptation to judge others harshly. “The right way to do it is not to be the judge and speak against them,” she said. Instead, Krick encouraged believers to focus on being a light in the world, noting, “Fight the darkness with light. Don’t fight darkness with darkness.”

Krick stressed the importance of allowing people to make their own decisions about what they see in others, rather than forcing judgment upon them. “Let them make their own decisions, to judge the fruit instead of forcing people,” she urged. By allowing others to use their free will, Krick believes that believers can help guide them toward the truth without imposing their own judgments.
Addressing fellow ministers, Krick emphasized the need to stay focused on their own calling and ministry. “Keep your eyes so locked on Jesus, running your own race, staying in your own lane,” she advised. By doing so, she believes ministers can shine brightly, attracting others to their message rather than pushing them away with a critical or condemning attitude.
“Let people see your light instead of showing your darkness and pushing people away,” Krick adds. By leading with love, humility and truth, she believes that believers can effectively guide others toward a deeper relationship with Christ.
