Before
What if the answers to many of our life questions aren't found in another book, but in the experience of those who have walked our path Before us? The account of Paul and Barnabas' trip through Lystra in Acts 14 indicates that even Paul himself was mentored. What does it look like to be a good mentee?
From Series: "The Mentorist"
We're taught by our culture that we should be self-sufficient. But God never designed us to do life alone. We don't find success in chasing one more God-moment. Rather, we should look for those who are Before, Beside and Behind us. We'll call these intentional, life-giving relationships "mentoring relationships". What do these relationships look like? How can we foster them in our daily lives? Welcome to The Mentorist!

Most of us don’t connect new technologies to our faith. After all, Jesus never had a Facebook profile. He didn’t post on Instagram or even have a smartphone. No wonder we struggle to imagine the Bible has anything to say about this Brave New World we live in. But we can think theologically about the technology in our lives. We can learn not a new set of rules (How many episodes per day is too many when I’m binge-watching? How old should my kids be before they get smartphones?), but rather how to ask the right questions. Do our technologies help us bring about God’s surprising, mustard seed kingdom here on Earth as it is in Heaven?
