Numbers 27:12-23

*NEW SERIES*

NAC is going to take the next several weeks to look carefully at faith training – specifically mentoring one on one. This is greatly needed in our church and we are going to be emphasizing how essential it is that we all mentor others and get mentored ourselves. The Bible contains examples of great mentoring relationships and this series will draw some of those out to learn from. What does a mentor do? What does a mentee do? Bottom line: if you follow Jesus, the Church needs you. Find out how to jump in with both feet as we begin with “Moses and Joshua,” part one of The Art of Mentoring Series.
