Value Add: Conversations and Reflections that add value to your life.

What's one way you can lean into the Creators invitation to have a rhythm of Rest?

What are your rhythms? Music requires a rhythm, a beat to keep time and enable the creativity and beauty of the sound and words to evoke mystery and awe. May our lives have a rhythm to it that points people to say "Thank you God."

We need to adopt the rhythm of saying thank you to the mentors in our lives.

Index cards. Goals. Accountability. Physical, Relational, and Spiritual - this is mentoring. We get to come alongside each other.

Mentor groups center around story-telling but there's another side to the coin, we also need to be people who are good story-listeners if the stories we tell will actually change our lives and churches. Find my whole mentor groups guide on my blog, link in bio.

Want to lead your own mentor groups at your church? These next few videos to round out the week will focus on just that. Let's be good story tellers!

What are the three types of mentors we all need in our lives...

Mentoring is not a “top down” approach where old mentor the young or the learned teach the inexperienced. Mentoring is a mutual endeavor, where we are all transformed by the Spirit of God found in each us.

Who is a mentor in your life? What do we want to be learning from others? This week we'll reflect on the Fruit of the Spirit and how we can "follow the Spirit" by being intentional with the relationships we have.

"Do you love me?" Now that is a good question.
