Models of Mentoring 4 : Mentor as Springboard

  • Summary

  • The Mentor as a Springboard is the idea of helping others excel and achieve even more highly than we have done.

    In 2 Kings 2:1-9 we read that Elisha asked Elijah for a double blessing, so that he could do more than Elijah had done. And in John 14:12 we read that Jesus promised His disciples that they would do even greater things than he had done.

    The Mentor’s commitment to being a Springboard for other people is to enable others to succeed. We see an example of this in all those coaches who coach athletes in the Olympics and also the coaches in other competitive sports. And it doesn't just work in sport, it works in business, in family life, in church life and in community life. It’s all about excellence, it's all about our lives being as a worship to God. To aim at anything less than excellence is really not an act of worship glorifying God. Every day we should be committed to excellence. We should see our prayer life, our Bible reading and our reflections as a springboard into a day of excellence!
