“Marriage of Protestant clergy is generally recognized as the most visible and unambiguous institutional change effected by the Reformation, and the place where its theological beliefs were most visibly put into practice. Ministry marriages and the pastor’s wife and kids sitting in the pews each Sunday were a walking, talking demonstration and reminder of Reformation truths.” — Claire Smith

We need one another. Yet we don’t always know how to develop deep relationships to help us grow in the Christian life. Younger believers benefit from the guidance and wisdom of more mature saints as their faith deepens. But too often, potential mentors lack clarity and training on how to engage in discipling those they can influence.
Whether you’re longing to find a spiritual mentor or hoping to serve as a guide for someone else, we have a FREE resource to encourage and equip you. In Growing Together: Taking Mentoring Beyond Small Talk and Prayer Requests, Melissa Kruger, TGC’s vice president of discipleship programming, offers encouraging lessons to guide conversations that promote spiritual growth in both the mentee and mentor.
