Sharing your faith with others can be difficult and overwhelming. But it doesn’t have to be. If you’ve ever wanted to share your faith with someone, especially of the next generation, it can be as easy as meeting and sharing your own life and faith via one – on – one mentoring.
Sometimes it seems like it is more noble or important to evangelize as many people as you can. But for most of us, we make a bigger impact when we share Christ in meaningful ways to a few select people. And this is what Jesus did too. He chose 12 disciples who followed him and asked lots of questions. They shared life together and learned as much as possible from Jesus in the few short years they had with him.
Author Jim Stump shares biblical stories where the basic principles of Jesus’ mentorship are shown and discusses how you can apply the same ideas in your own relationships. Jim Stump has mentored student athletes at Stanford University for over 40 years, and says it’s okay to feel like you may not be a good mentor, that you don’t have all the answers. In fact, that might make you a better mentor because of your outlook. He understands that the best way to have an eternal impact on the world is to develop deep and meaningful relationships with a handful of people.
With engaging personal stories and examples from the life of Jesus, Jim Stump shows you how to develop rich mentoring relationships with the people in your life, providing simple steps toward sharing faith and life with those you care about. Inspirational, encouraging, and practical, The Power of One-on-One will increase your impact on God’s kingdom in surprisingly simple ways.
