Christian Mentoring Program
Redefining Christian Mentorship: A Calling for Today's World
In a culture that often settles for superficial connections, the biblical call to "make disciples" requires a deeper, more authentic approach. True mentorship is more than just teaching or leading a small group; it is the life-on-life journey of guiding another believer toward a more profound relationship with Christ. It’s about creating a space for genuine transformation, where people feel safe enough to be vulnerable and strong enough to grow.
At Twelve Disciples Org, we believe this sacred calling is for every believer who is willing to answer. The problem is that most feel unqualified, unequipped, or unsupported. We have built our entire ministry to solve this through the Master Discipleship Licentiate program. We are here to redefine Christian mentorship by equipping ordinary people with an extraordinary framework to guide others, not with academic knowledge, but with the power of their own life story and a deep reliance on the Holy Spirit. This is your invitation to step into one of the most fulfilling roles in the Kingdom of God.
The True Definition of a Mentor
Before you can become a mentor, it's essential to understand what a mentor truly is—and what they are not. A mentor is not expected to be a perfect saint or a walking encyclopedia of theology; such standards disqualify almost everyone. A true, biblical mentor embodies something far more powerful.
The Role of a Mentor
A mentor is, first and foremost, a fellow traveler. They are someone who is simply a few steps ahead on a similar path, able to point out pitfalls they've experienced and safe passages they've found. A mentor is a doer of the Word, not just a hearer, embodying the principles of faith through their actions. They build trust, creating a sanctuary of confidentiality and encouragement where others can confess their struggles without fear of judgment. Above all, a mentor is a signpost, constantly pointing others not to their own wisdom, but to the ultimate guidance and healing found only in Jesus Christ.
Your Authority Comes From Your Story
You might be thinking, "What qualifies me to guide someone else?" The answer is simpler and more profound than you imagine: your life qualifies you. The most powerful credential any mentor can possess is a testimony of God's faithfulness through their own Real Life Experiences (RLEs). Your past struggles, your deepest wounds, and your hardest-won victories are the very things that give you credibility and empathy.
Embracing Your Scars as Ministry Authority
Our entire mentoring philosophy is built on this truth: God doesn't waste a hurt. The person who has navigated the pain of divorce is uniquely equipped to mentor someone whose marriage is in crisis. The veteran who has battled PTSD can speak with an authority that no counselor’s degree can replicate. In our program, we teach you how to view your scars not as a source of shame, but as the foundation of your ministry authority. Your story becomes the bridge that connects another person’s pain to God’s healing power.
