Feedback is ongoing, correction should not be.
Feedback is to help each other grow.
Correction is to change wrong behavior.
Questions to ask when giving and receiving feedback:
Am I doing this out of love?
Do I have peace about it? (Colossians 3:14-15, NKJV)
Do I want the best for the other person? (Philippians 2:3-4, NCV)
Am I doing what’s best for the overall organization or church?
