 I briefly want to just talk about mentorship and you may have heard that word a lot of times in our church or outside of the church and a lot of times you'll hear that mentorship or mentor that word in different names and titles throughout the different cultures and different countries. It may, you may have heard a guru, a llama, some people call a mentor a llama, some people call a guide, some call a sensei. Have you guys heard of that before? All of those different titles and names, but they all initiate one thing is a mentor. And the ultimate meaning of a mentor, no matter what title or name it may be throughout this whole world, it is that this definition means one that will go before and show the way. Is the one that will go before and show the way. And so we say a lot of times about mentorship and we encourage each and every person that those that are sitting here tonight, if this is your first time or those that have gave their life to Christ, maybe it's been a month or a few months or maybe six months, I want to tell you is that you are already a mentor. Because now that you have dug your heels in, you have began a journey with Christ. You've been hearing the word of God, if it's through podcasts, if it's through messages or just sitting in the service, I want to tell you one thing is you're a mentor because you go before and show the way. And I want to tell you one thing is that a mentor is one of the most fulfilling things you will ever do in this life. I truly believe that and mean that and I know that those that are here that have been mentoring others believe the same thing. When I was 14 years old, I gave my life to Christ and I began to mentor other girls as I went on and grew in this church. And I want to tell you it was so fulfilling to see how God used me at a chance to give a people hope and give people a chance to also see that they could be a great inspiration to other people. And that was the beginning of God just using me and he was using other people. And I want to share a scripture where it says Proverbs 11 25. It says, whoever brings blessings will be enriched. And the one who waters will himself be watered. And there's in other translations will say those that refresh will also be refreshed. And I want to tell you is that when you become a mentor and we do this through our vision in our church, in our home groups, you know, we have a vision in our church that's to win souls and make disciples. And the way that we can execute this is through mentorship. It's through home groups. The way a disciple can become a disciple and for them to be used to their fullest potential is when you are mentored. See, there's one thing is when you can get self, when you're able to self reflect. You know, that's one good way where you're like, okay, this is what I need to change. This is how I need to grow. That's a good way. But I want to tell you is that when you do self reflection, you're going in circles. Okay, you're going to be going in circles and circles because you're only looking to your one self. But when you have a mentor, you go to a new level. You get enriched in every area of your life. If it is spiritually, physically, if it's financially, if it's in your family or in relationships, when there is someone else that is looking at a different perspective or looking at a different blind spot, I want to tell you that there is no doubt you will grow in life when you have a mentor. If any self improvement book that you pick up, any article or magazine, every successful person that has made it in life or our billionaires or millionaires or successful entrepreneurs to whatever, even in ministry, there's one common thing that they always say is that I have a mentor. And that is true. No matter what you want to fulfill in your life, it is without a doubt. It is a principle that works. And I want to tell you is that when you come to this church, when you get installed into this vision and go to a home group, a mentor comes along and helps you and guides you to be able to fulfill all that God has called for you to be. Amen? And so I encourage each and every one of you to believe if you have been coming here for six months, I want to tell you is that God wants to use you for you to be able to mentor and guide others to be a leader of this generation to show that there is hope to the hopeless. And I want to tell you that this is the place that we can do it all together to unite and to show that. And last thing before I end this is that many times people say, well, I haven't read the whole Bible yet. I don't know those scriptures. I haven't memorized those scriptures. I don't have all the answers to say the right things. Well, you see in the Bible Pharisees, which are those traditional religious people, they were those, that was the example, those Pharisees, they valued knowledge, but Jesus Christ, he valued people. And I want to tell you is that we're not about valuing knowledge. We are about valuing people. And we want to be Jesus Christ like we want to be a reflection of Jesus and he valued people. And that is what mentoring does is we value a soul. We value a vision through mentoring is where we give all what that we get, give all that we got. And I want to tell you one thing is that you're like, man, I feel like because I'm going to give all myself, I'm going to be exhausted. We're not asking you to babysit. OK, babysitting is exhausting. If anyone has ever babysat, that's exhausting. OK, but we're talking about mentorship. It says in the word that if you water, you will also be watered. If you give refreshment to others, you also will be refreshed. And that is a promise. First seek the kingdom of God and everything else will be added on to you. You impart into the vision first. If you give to people first, I want to tell you, God will always bring favor to you first. Amen. So I hope you guys are encouraged and know that when you plug into a home group, when you come to service, you're not just stepping into a service and it ends. You're stepping into a vision and to a hope and to a future for yourself. Amen. So be blessed. And if you are interested in coming to a home group that we offer on Sundays, we have many leaders throughout the service that you can talk to afterwards and anyone that wants to join on my stream. We also have a Skype home group as well for you to join and unite as well. So you guys, I hope you are blessed by that and just know that you are a mentor in Jesus name.
