What is a spiritual mentor?

Spiritual mentors are people who provide support, wisdom, and insight in your journey of faith. They can help you overcome challenges, navigate doubts, and strengthen your relationship with God. A mentor is a friend who can help you through difficult decisions in life, encourage you during tough times, and hold you accountable to your faith.

Mentors are usually pastors, youth workers, or elders in a local church. Online mentorship has changed this dynamic by connecting individuals to faith leaders and experienced Christians around the world.
