In this episode, Tonya Edwards and I sit down to talk to about mentorship and being in relationship with other women on both sides of us generationally. Tonya currently works at Gateway Church in Scottsdale, AZ and has a heart for evangelism, women's ministry, and connecting people. Together we look at examples of mentorship in scripture and the qualities necessary to give and receive coaching. Tonya also shares how wisdom is different from knowledge and charges women to step in from the sidelines to share what God has done in their lives with other women needing to learn from them. We also discuss being good talkers and struggling to listen when it comes to time with the Lord, humility, date nights, and more.

Eve is a past schoolteacher who answered the Lord’s call to serve in her home country of Greece as a full-time missionary. In Greece she mentors young women and girls at a local church and builds relationships with unchurched women and teens by meeting practical needs at the church’s community center. During her visit to Covenant in September of 2022, Eve shared a part of her story when suddenly, her identity, work, relationships, and more were taken away after an accident during her vocal cord surgery. Eve talks about her identity being rooted in “doing” instead of God’s grace and love. She also describes the restlessness she felt when God placed a burden on her heart for a particular work in His kingdom and her ongoing response to that restlessness. Eve and I became friends seven years ago on a mission trip in Greece and it is the greatest joy to support her as a missionary in Greece and learn from her. You’ll enjoy hearing a few stories about our time in Greece together, more about the ministry she is a part of it, and how you can be viewing your work as ministry.
