What is the Titus2 Mentoring Program?
We believe Jesus left us with the command to go and make disciples.
We fulfill that mandate by enabling all generations of women to radiantly reflect the glory of Christ and flourish in every area of life.
Titus2 Mentoring is a curriculum based mentoring relationship that connects older women with younger women to encourage and challenge one another in their walk with Jesus. Joining a Titus2 group is opening up your life to grow, learn and find community.
Each group will consist of 4-7 women and 1 or 2 mentors. You will not only have access to a one-on-one relationship with your mentor, but also a community of women in the same stage of life.
We have a wonderful group of mentors who are excited about leading these small groups!
We ask them to be transparent, committed and available. As they share wisdom gained through years of walking with the Lord, some of the most valuable insights they will share will come from their mistakes; so hopefully, you can avoid the same mistakes they have made along the way.
Each month will focus on a topic that is vital to you as a follower of Christ, as well as a wife, mother, daughter, employee and friend.

Why Mentor?
1. Your life can make a difference.
You have a wealth of experiences and wisdom that could be life-changing to someone a little behind you in life.
2. The need is great.
Countless women today long to be nurtured. There is a greater need than ever before.
- Family is divided by distance
- Oftentimes, the family unity has disintegrated
- Women may not have good role models in their own mothers
- Fast pace of society keeps women from developing relationships
- Life is so complicated now . . . so many more choices today than ever before
They don’t need more information, but wisdom from someone who has already traveled their stage of life.
3. It’s scriptural.
Titus 2:3-5 – “Older women likewise are to be reverent in their behavior, not malicious gossips, nor enslaved to much wine, teaching what is good, that they may encourage the young women to love their husbands, to love their children, to be sensible, pure, workers at home, kind, being subject to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be dishonored.”
God has issued a clear call to older women to take what we’ve learned over the years to encourage younger women.
4. Mentoring keeps you learning, growing and engaged in God’s Kingdom.
Mentoring might seem risky as you step out of your comfort zone, but you’ll be using your experiences and wisdom gained over the years to invest in younger women, which could make a huge difference in their lives. You have no idea how God could use your life to impact not only the next generation, but many generations that follow!
5. You help equip the mentees as disciples to become disciple makers
- Stronger relationship with God
- Equipping for life roles
- Strengthened marriage
- New wisdom and insights from mentor
- Accountability for spiritual disciplines
- Greater joy and fulfillment
