Moses And His Mentor Jethro

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Apr 11, 2023

The message looks at a brief incident of mentoring in the life of Moses. And without this mentoring that took place, Moses’ life could have been quite different. Let's see if we can learn some things about mentoring from God's word.

For the next few Sundays I want to dip into the Old Testament teachings. There are individuals in the Old Testament that we can learn a lot of things about and from. One of those things is mentoring others. Currently we have several individuals in our church who have volunteered to be mentors to ...read more

Spiritual Leadership: The Jethro Principle Series

Contributed by Brad Beaman on May 12, 2022

Jethro gave Moses such helpful advice that not only did Moses apply this, he wrote it in Scripture. He must have been aware that this was a leadership principle that would help spiritual leaders in every generation that follows him. There would come different circumstances but timeless principles.

Not for me, I saw that my son-in-law was working long hours and here in this book were principles for the entrepreneur that could help him rise up new employees that he ...read more

Ministry Is Not Meant To Be A One-Man Show

Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Aug 28, 2019

Do you need help? We rarely like to think that we do. How did Moses respond when someone said that he looked like he needed some help. Moses’ example is a great reminder of the help that God provides for us in those whom God has placed around us in our church to carry out the ministry together.

“Do you need some help?” When someone asks you that question, what is your natural reaction? I think that our natural response might be a bit defensive, “No. I’ve got it. I’m fine” whether we really are or not. Why is that? There is a little part of us that doesn’t want to admit that we need ...read more
