Quick Tips for College Ministers #2

 Quick Tip #2

MENTORING is key and does not have to be complicated.

1.  Set a regular time to meet with individual leaders or students you see as having real potential.

2.  Talk about what is going on in their life....important stuff, little stuff. Ask questions. LISTEN!

3.  Affirm the strengths, gifts, and potential you see in them.  Many have never had anyone do that.

4.  Help them answer and deal with their faith questions.

5.  Talk about leadership issues.  Who is the best leader or worst leader they have seen?  Why?

6.  Help them evaluate and learn from their own leadership experiences.

7.  Be lovingly honest with them.  If you are not honest, you are not mentoring.
