How Do We Do This "Gospel Life" Thing? // Melissa Kruger


Listen Later

"If there is one verse that I would want to characterize my ministry, it would be this one.” — Melissa Kruger

This month’s memory verse: “Because we loved you so much, we were delighted to share with you not only the gospel of God but our lives as well.” — 1 Thessalonians 2:8b

Today’s podcast: What does it really look like to share not only the gospel but also our lives with one another? In today’s episode, Melissa Kruger and Natalie Abbott talk about the power of life-on-life ministry, why mentoring is not like marriage, and the joy of seeing how the gospel is impacting someone’s life over time. You won’t want to miss this encouragement and wisdom from women who have faithfully been mentoring others for years!

Our May Dwell guest: Melissa Kruger is a wife, mom, and the author of multiple books, including The Envy of Eve, Walking with God in the Season of Motherhood, and Growing Together: Taking Mentoring Beyond Small Talk and Prayer Requests. She enjoys teaching women the Bible and serves as the director of women's initiatives for The Gospel Coalition.
