Ministering Forward: Mentoring Tomorrow's Christian Leaders

Do you want to have a part in helping tomorrow’s Christian leaders

fulfill their destiny?

Have you been asked to be a mentor but did not know where to begin?

Does it excite you to see someone you have encouraged advance to a new

level?

Ministering Forward will help you to understand how you can be a

guide and encourager to those who want to tap into your experience as you

transfer faith and ministry to the next generation.

You will learn how to be purposeful and intentional in a mentoring

relationship that allows the learner to determine their own mentoring agenda

while you nudge them towards self-awareness and guide them along critical

growth pathways. You will discover how to forge a mentoring agreement that

keeps the relationship on track, as well as identify mentoring activities

you can pursue. This book will leave you with no doubt about how you can fit

into a mentoring role.

Ministering Forward offers a meaningful and convincing rationale

for why leaders must embrace purposeful and competent mentoring to realize

God-given vision and extend their impact beyond their lifetimes. If you want

to build people, develop leaders, and transfer vision forward, but don’t

know where to start, reach for Ministering Forward first.
