Abstract

God has shown the example of great mentors throughout the Bible. The Bible is filled with charges and directions for a life full of meaning. Matthew 28:19-20 gives us a precise command, 'Therefore go and make disciples of all nations.' The charge of making disciples is clear and direct. The question comes about when determining how best to make disciples. Jesus used modeling and mentoring. The established example of Jesus mentoring is the one that will be discussed and followed. There is a great need in youth ministries for students to see how other students who are committed followers of Jesus Christ live their lives. The project leader believes a teenage student better relates to another teenage student than to an adult. A student mentor can grow personally by being trained to mentor, as well as become prepared to minister to their mentoree. This project will develop a curriculum for teenage leaders to lead younger students to understand how they can have a deeper relationship with Jesus Christ. The project leader will work with the mentor development team to develop six sessions that will be used by student mentors to lead a younger teenage mentoree. The mentor will spend one on one time with a student who is two or more years younger than the mentor. The mentoree will be trained to understand how to have a closer relationship with Jesus, as well as be encouraged to become a mentor to a younger student. This mentoring curriculum will develop into a teen-to-teen mentoring ministry.
