THE HEART OF MENTORING

“There is really only one type of person in this world: the person who needs to be a mentored mentor.” —David A. Stoddard

We cannot unfold what this statement means, or define the heart of mentoring in one short post, but hopefully throughout the month we can begin to.

For now, I love how Chip Ingram put it, “…everyone needs a Paul, a Timothy, and a Barnabas in their life — a Paul to learn from as a mentor and role model, a Timothy to sow seeds into the next generation, with teaching and encouragement, and a Barnabas you can be totally open with, an encouraging friend who will go through life with you in the good times and in the sweat and heartache.”

Can you thank God for those kind of women in your life today?
