Eryl Davies’ short guide to mentoring answers all the most common questions people have about being a mentor.

Writing out of his own experience and out of the experience of many other Christians whose stories are shared in this book, Dr Davies encourages us to consider whether the Lord may be calling us to a mentoring role, whether in our own local community, or in the broader life of the Christian Church today.
Hector Morrison
Principal, Highland Theological College, Dingwall
This book is authentic and is the fruit of a lifetime Dr Davies has spent mentoring others, including myself. I was left challenged to deepen my faith, encouraged to mentor others, and equipped with how to do so well. Highly recommended.
