What is a Mentor?

"Christian Mentoring is a relational experience in which one person empowers another by sharing God-given resources. A Christian Mentor draws on their own spiritual experience and maturity to walk the walk in order to convey that experience to others seeking to develop their walk with Jesus to the same or greater degree." 
-Paul Stanly and J. Robert Clinton

Mentoring is about heart transformation, not behavior modification.

Mentoring is an apprenticeship in becoming Christ-like

“A Mentor/Discipler is a more experienced follower who imparts to a believer the knowledge, skill, and basics to grow in Christ. A Discipler affects the believer’s character and behavior.” – Terry Walling
