Journals & Mentors (Part 2) | Episode 010

How do pastors find mentors? What is the difference between mentoring and coaching? And why is accountability the missing piece in so many ministry failures? In Part 2 of our conversation on journaling and mentorship, we go deeper into what it means to pursue spiritual fathers and mothers, seek accountability, and “borrow gray hair” instead of learning everything the hard way. This episode is for pastors, church planters, ministry leaders, and young leaders who want to build something that lasts.
