notes from a mentoring seminar at Equip 2008

put on by His Harvest Ministries

Mentoring - sharing of a life, one person to another, not casual and not business
-praying with and for
-open, honest, vulnerable
-laughter
-friendship
-availability
-model Godly attitude and world view

"spiritual parenting"

mentoring can prevent counseling

Scriptural example: Timothy

the mentor should take initiative to start

Mentoring is a new term, but it has happened throughout history.

Mentoring is initially the parents job, then brother sister aunt uncle neighbor teacher friend etc

-gentle guiding, not bossing

Finish well, invest your life in other people!
