ep.8 Should you mentor a child? with Jason Walton of Elevate

Should You mentor a child? Maybe this is something you never thought about. In today’s episode we have the pleasure of speaking with Jason Walton, the leader of the Mentorship program for the Coweta school system at Foundation Church. So, why mentor a child? We live in a very egocentric world today. Most of us walk around thinking about ourselves. How can we succeed? How can we be comfortable? And how can we do better? Though there is nothing wrong with us, God calls us in Hebrews 13:16 to share what we have with others. When we do, we also get a benefit from it.
