“Following Jesus and Loving People”
Mentoring is fun! Last year the Lord put on my heart to invite some young men in the church into our home for fellowship, with the intention of influencing them to grow in the Lord and become Christian leaders. Mentoring, in one form or another, is so important for our church and “The Next Generation Ministries”. When we hear the word “mentor” we sometimes think, “that is complicated and I would never be able to do it.” However, let’s think of mentoring as simply sharing life with those less experienced. Here’s what we do at the Boucher’s: We get together about two or three times a month (we see each other more than this). After enjoying some food together, we open the Bible and read one chapter. Right now we are going through the Book of Proverbs because of the great practical applications to youth (Proverbs was written by King Solomon to impart wisdom to his children). After we read, we discuss one or two verses which catch our attention and then share with each other why this verse stood out to us. After this, we take turns sharing a “glad” and a “sad”. The question we ask each other is, “in the past few weeks, what is the happiest thing that has happened to you”, and “what is the saddest or most difficult thing that has happened to you.” Then, we pray for each other. Altogether, our time of sharing is about 20 to 30 minutes. This past week, we read Proverbs 18. After we read the chapter together (and they shared their verses), I shared Prov. 18:13, “He who answers before listening-that is his folly and his shame.” We then talked about how important it is to not make quick judgments on others, and the need to try to understand people and the circumstances. In conclusion, I would encourage you to reach out to a young person or child. If you have children, consider using the simple format above to get closer to your own children. If God leads you to reach out to another young person, first get together with their parent or guardian and talk it over. And remember, we all “mentor” and teach by the way we handle the challenges and blessings of our own life.

"Following Jesus and Loving People"
For the believer in Jesus, the Holy Spirit is not an "optional extra". In fact, without the Holy Spirit we are not even children of God ("and if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ" Rom. 8:9b). So, why is the Holy Spirit so important…and what does He do inside us? There are so many ways the Spirit helps us. Consider what the Apostle Paul said in 2 Corinthians 3:17-18, "Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit." Here we notice two powerful truths about the Holy Spirit. First, the Holy Spirit is the Spirit of the Lord. Jesus and the Spirit are One in unity and ministry. The closer we walk with Jesus, the more of God's Spirit is at work in us. Also, we notice what the Spirit does in us. At our salvation, the "veil" of darkness covering our hearts is taken away. Now, we can look (or perceive the Lord) for who he really is. The Spirit enables us to see life from God's perspective…through his Word. Of course, no one sees the Lord with 20/20 vision. But, as we grow in our faith and continue to focus on Jesus, the Spirit does his amazing work of "transforming (us) into his likeness with ever-increasing glory" v18). The work of the Spirit is transformation into the likeness of Jesus! If you don't want to change and would rather stay in your same old life and habits, the Spirit is not for you. The Holy Spirit's mission is to work in us, so he can work through us. He transforms our thoughts to be like Jesus' thoughts. He transforms our will to be like Jesus' will. He transforms our emotions to be like the emotions of Jesus. The Holy Spirit brings attention to Christ and empowers us to change. There is nothing more challenging, exciting, and fulfilling than submitting to the transformation process in becoming just like Jesus!
