Ep 2011: Start Your Mentoring Journey
Mentoring doesn’t have to be complicated. It’s as simple as sharing your life with someone. And that’s exactly how John and Liz Jacobs – a couple with a heart for pouring into others – view mentoring relationships. In this episode they share their experiences as Pauls, Barnabases, Timothys (and if you don’t get that reference, check it out in this week’s blog).
Grant Skeldon, author of chapter 16 in the iRetire4Him book, wrote The Passion Generation This book shows that young people do want relationships with "chronologically superior” generations. So, don’t think that your listening ear and guidance isn’t valuable!
John and Liz give some great ideas of how you can start pouring your life into others. For Liz, she feels the song My Story is a great reminder that every part of your life should be constantly pointing to Jesus. It doesn’t necessarily take a Bible study to create a good mentoring session. For John, he meets with a couple of guys for an accountability breakfast each week, then asks four questions:
1. How is your relationship with God?
2. How is your relationship with your spouse?
3. How is your relationship with your kids or loved ones?
4. What are you being tempted with this week?
Commitment and intentionality are the main keys to making these relationships work. Another quick, daily way to be poured into? Listen to the iWork4Him PowerThoughts each week. This is something you can even listen to and discuss with a friend (or mentor/mentee).
There is so much fantastic advice packed into this show that you won’t want to miss! For more information and guidance on mentoring – whether you want to mentor or be mentored – reach out to Jim at jim@iWork4Him.com
