Profound Influence: How Positive Mentorship Transforms Men

How can older men who are mature in their faith have a tremendous impact on the younger men?

In this episode of the Stand Up Dude podcast, called "Profound Influence: How Positive Mentorship Transforms Men", hosts Tim Bisagno and Stewart White discuss the vital role of mentorship in men's lives. The emphasis is placed on the need for positive guidance that leads to men to Christ, and ultimately, spiritual maturity. Unfortunately, true and effective mentorship seems to be in short supply.
Tim shares his own experiences, highlighting the importance of surrounding oneself with godly men. This episode will leave you feeling encouraged and lifted up, as you are pointed toward seeking out your own mentors, and hopefully left feeling open to mentoring others and fostering relationships that lead to spiritual growth and maturity.
