  • Stop Sucking Up to the Spectacular

    Barry confronts “sucking up” as disingenuous flattery used to gain favor with authority, calling it manipulative, rooted in insecurity and the fear of man, and harmful to families and culture. He links this behavior to a modern obsession with being “spectacular,” where showy displays in social media, workplaces, and churches can overshadow truth and substance. Don't let that happen!
