Mentoring is an exciting opportunity to share your faith with someone who does not know God, or to encourage a fellow believer in their time of need. We welcome and need Godly men and women to volunteer with us in this role.

When someone accepts Christ on one of our websites, or has a question about God or life in general, they can contact us through the forms on our websites. They are then matched with an online mentor (someone like you!) who can then guide them in their new faith or life struggles.

Through online mentoring, the hurting, the lonely, the confused, and the seeking are able to be matched up with someone who is able to mentor and disciple them. Mentoring through email, chat, discussion boards and blogs allows individuals the opportunity to interact with a mentor anywhere in the world as if they were sitting side-by-side. The anonymity of the internet opens the door to incredibly personal ministry - you will be amazed by the honesty and openness that is possible in online communities.

Training will be provided to all new online mentors.

Online mentors work from their own homes at their own pace. You are free to spend as much time as you're willing to share with us. Thank you for considering becoming an online mentor and helping to change someone's life!

Requirements

Godly Encouragement: Mentoring involves a sincere desire to encourage others with the wisdom of the Bible. We actively pursue mentors who have a deep desire to share the love of Christ, and we realize that one cannot expect to show Christ to others if we are not engaged in a growing relationship with Christ ourselves.

Mentoring Goal: Our purpose in mentoring is to show compassion and empathy by our words of concern and acknowledgment of their situation.

Mentoring Role: Let the people know that we are not counselors; our role is to point the people to helpful resources and to share the Gospel. We can carry their burden in prayer, but our real responsibility is to present the Gospel and refer them.

Mentoring Opportunity: The purpose for each e-mail that we send is to see this as an opportunity to point that person to Jesus and to help them find answers in the Bible. Acknowledge their feelings of helplessness, of losing hope, but point them to Jesus for a supernatural healing.

Statement of Faith: Please read our Statement of Faith. It is important that you read it carefully to to ensure that you can agree with our foundation of belief. As you fill out the application form, please be sure to indicate that you have read the Statement of Faith and if you agree with it or not.

Pastoral Reference: A Pastoral Reference is required for each mentor. Please be aware that information will be verified through an independent source, and is required to complete your application.
