My take: This is a wonderful resource for anyone interested in mentoring others. She quotes many resources that you can read if you would like to do more research on the subject. You don't need a special degree or training to be a mentor to another but you do need time and the emotional aptitude for it as sometimes it takes a toll. This book does take inspiration from the Navigators Ministry and is Biblically based so you will have to take that into consideration. Lots of ideas to use in your takeaway and you will grow immensely.
I received a review copy of this book from Partners in Crime tours and was not required to leave a positive review.
Thanks for your thoughts! I loved this one! I thought this was a great resource if mentoring or not. I would just use it in my own daily practice.
