Mentoring
is a crucial part of the Christian faith. "Jethro
mentored Moses, who had to face Pharaoh. Moses, in turn
mentored Joshua, who led the conquest of the promise land.
Eli mentored Samuel, who then guided Saul and David, the first
kings of Israel. Elijah mentored Elisha, who confronted
wayward kings. Mordecai mentored Esther, who intervened with
King Xerxes, saving her nation from extinction. Jesus
mentored his twelve apostles. Barnabas mentored Paul, who
paid it forward to Timothy, Titus, and many others. Mentoring
was so important to Paul's ministry that in his final letter to
young Timothy he pleaded with him to continue the tradition."
~ Mark Moore (Core 52)
The
reason the Christian faith continues to thrive to this day is
because men and women have taken the responsibility of mentoring
seriously. So what about you?
In this sermon we will dive into the apostle Paul's teaching from 2 Timothy 2:2 as to why mentoring plays such a vital role in the lives of all Christians. To help teach us, we are honored to have one of our own, Alex Steele teach from this text. Give a listen to this practical teaching from someone who knows first hand about the importance of mentorship. We know you will find it to be helpful!
