Publisher's Synopsis
Second edition. What do you say to divorce, addictions, false teaching, sexual confusion, and other serious contemporary conflicts that arise among Christians who are desperate for help, comfort, and direction? Every Christian--not just mentors, counselors, and church leaders--will find answers through these real-life examples in case studies with their corresponding spiritual principles.This mentoring guidebook is not a baby formula for helpers. Head-on, it addresses major challenges and heartaches that are in families, friendships, and the workplace. Rejecting the temptation to use pat answers, we are admonished to listen, love, and acknowledge that each situation is unique. God has given principles, prayer, and the power of the Holy Spirit to shine light on each individual circumstance. A special section on spiritual warfare is especially illuminating for identifying and overcoming obstacles in the mentoring/discipling process.Thought-provoking questions and scenarios in the guidebook are taken from actual situations and their outcomes. By not side-stepping the tough issues of our day, MENTORING GOD'S WAY is effective for personal help, individual preparation, and mentoring others. The case studies and spiritual insights are also valuable for lively group discussion for those who want to grow in Christ and follow His Great Commission to go forth and make disciples.
