MORE on mentoring…

Mentorship is rooted in relationship. We believe prayer-focused mentoring brings us closer to Jesus and one another, which makes room for transformation. It unites and grows Christ’s Church. 

Rivers is excited to be partnering with MORE Mentoring to help our mentoring community grow and flourish. MORE Mentoring exists to help build a culture of intentional, prayer-focused mentoring in churches, organizations, and communities. Mentoring creates space for people to be seen, heard, and known, and we believe it will help create a movement of intentional care, discipleship, and spiritual growth in our church.

Join our Rivers Church Mentoring Hub to connect with mentors and mentees, receive training for mentors and mentees, and join the mentoring movement at Rivers Church. 

Whether you want to mentor, be mentored, or both—this space is for you!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

  • Mentoring is coming alongside another person and pointing them to Jesus. We call it prayer-focused mentoring because prayer is a vital part to the mentoring relationship. It’s where true transformation takes place! Mentoring is not counseling or even giving advice (unless asked). The 4 pillars of mentoring that MORE Mentoring suggests are Love, Listen, Encourage, and Pray. We keep it simple yet powerful as we allow the Holy Spirit to lead and guide our conversation and prayer times together.

  • Go to the Rivers mentoring hub and create your profile. Then begin with the “Start Here” button. It will take you through the steps of filling out an application (including a background check for mentors) and going through the online training, as well as getting you matched with a mentor or mentee.

  • Absolutely! Let us know on your application and we will help you get connected.

  • We suggest committing to going through at least one mentoring guide together. This consists of a “Getting to Know You” first session and then 12 sessions after that.

  • Men, women, and married couples.

  • The only cost to you is the purchase of a mentoring guide which you can purchase on Amazon starting at $11.99 (https://www.morementoring.org/mentoring-guides).

    Rivers is covering the cost of the training for mentors and mentees.

  • You can decide! We suggest weekly or bi-weekly as a great place to start.

  • You can decide! We suggest 1-1.5 hours together is a great starting point. It totally depends on your schedule and your availability.

  • Our mentoring guides are a great starting point for discussion. They provide conversations, encouragement, and prayer starters. A little bit of structure with a lot of freedom to allow the Holy Spirit to guide the discussion is a great way to foster deeper connection.

  • We suggest you look through the session in the mentoring guide to be prepared to answer the questions but other than that, there is very little preparation time involved.

  • Yes! You could use it as a way to take notes so you can remember what to follow up on when you meet next.
