Mentors for Mentors

May 27, 2025 • Julia Eckrich, Paul Sifuentes, Rachel Gilman, & Jake Teitgen • Season 5 • Episode 10

Christ did not send out his apostles one by one, but two by two. In this episode, the Pizza and Side Hugs team talks about what that means when you are working in ministry- it is so important to be doing it with someone else. Having a mentor can mean having a person to help you troubleshoot, brainstorm, and celebrate. Listen in to hear thoughts on why having a mentor is important and just how to go about starting that relationship.
