In today’s episode, Kathy and Miranda sit down with two dear friends, Saundria Keck and Tami Webb. Saundria and Tami are both wise followers of Christ, grandmothers, and passionate about investing in other women.The main focus of this week’s conversation is the importance and impact of mentorship relationships in the lives of Christian women. Saundria says that women, especially mothers, often “are the heart of the home and have the potential to change everything.” So, walking alongside other women is a wonderful way to invest in all of God’s people. Our first and often most influential mentors are our parents. However, that’s not the case in every woman’s story. Tami explains that she understands from experience what it’s like to grow up in a non-Christian home. As sisters in Christ, we have the ability to fill the gap and become like second physical and spiritual mothers to one another. Even for those who have been discipled by their parents, having other people in their lives to come to for guidance is incredibly important.Regardless of your age, or of how old another woman is, you can be a mentor in Christ to her. We are all at various stages of our faith journeys, and that doesn’t always line up with our physical age. Plus, we all have different sets of strengths and weaknesses, and our own life experiences. God has made each of us uniquely, and we all have something to offer — not because of us, but because of Him.In their conversation, the four women discuss the three tiers of relationships, and how (and why) we should seek them out. They also address the fact that relationships are not stagnant: they ebb and flow. Some relationships are intended only for a season, and this can be difficult to come to terms with. However, God goes before us, and He knows the impact we can have on one another in His timing. Be sure to listen in on this week’s episode to learn how to start a mentoring relationship in either direction. We’ll unpack tips on how to keep a new relationship from fizzling, and how to prevent hurt feelings. Plus, we’ll talk about the joy of seeing the fruit of your faithfulness in mentorships. Whether it’s across generations or across towns, God can reach farther than we could ever expect when we just reach out to the women near us.We pray that this episode blesses you. We pray also that giving and seeking out the counsel and support of other women will become a consistent rhythm of your life As You Go.
