Recently, Merrill and Linda saw the movie, The Forge. Without spoiling the movie for you, we would highly recommend it! The movie brings about the topic of mentoring and why it is so important.
Seldom can we learn everything from a book or even a classroom. We often learn best from the wisdom of those that take a special interest in us and are willing to poor into our growth. This may be parent, but just as likely it is a coach, teacher, or family friend. It is someone that has seen something in you that they value and want to help you become the best version of yourself.
Mentoring is nothing new to mankind. In fact, it has been one of the primary ways that valuable information and skills have been passed from one generation to the next. However, in the past decade, mentoring has fallen out of practice to some degree. Young people have not been as active to seek mentors as now they are able to answer many questions through their internet or social media outlets. The problem with this is that these answers are often of a secular view.
Today's show will challenge you to find someone to mentor you as well as you finding someone to mentor. Usually this is an older person mentoring you with their life wisdom and you mentoring a younger person with your life wisdom. It is often said that Paul had his Barnabas and his Timothy. Barnabas poured into Paul, while Paul poured into Timothy.
