AUDIO; TIMOTHY AND OUR NEED TO BE MENTORED

In Lystra Paul meets Timothy, a respected young disciple of Jewish heritage with a Greek father (Acts 15 and16). Recognising his potential, Paul undertakes the demanding task of preparing his young friend for ministry and future leadership. He circumcises him for strategic reasons, adds him to his travelling companions and patientl,y mentors him by teaching and example for many years. We too need mentors throughout our Christian lives that, like Timothy, we also might bear fruit to God's glory.
