What is mentoring
The concept of "mentoring" comes from Homer's Odyssey, where the elderly Mentor teaches life skills to the young Telemachus. Following this Greek
tradition, Socrates mentored Plato, who in turn mentored Aristotle and who later mentored Alexander the Great. Similarly, Jesus mentored his disciples, a legacy that Barnabas, Paul, and Timothy continued..

The Relevance of Mentoring in Making Disciples and Fulfilling the Great Commission
Jesus mentored his disciples, teaching them beyond spiritual topics. He invited them to build meaningful relationships that impacted their lives. The disciples learned about love, forgiveness, harvesting, fishing, taxes, relationships, history, farming, money, and work. Jesus challenged them to make disciples and gave them a mission to fulfill. He provided mentoring to a small, close-knit group, which remains the most effective way to share life and build community.
