Textbook Information
Many Christian women have come to understand our biblical mandate for lifeonlife discipleship of someone younger in the faith. Most women embrace this role, though, with at least some uncertainty about their ability to carry such a great responsibility. A biblicallybased personal study, Woman to Woman Preparing Yourself to Mentor will guide a woman stepbystep through the process of readying herself for such a relationship. This study will help the mentortobe to evaluate her own gifts and how they can be used in mentoring, to examine the different possible roles of a mentor, to develop a plan for starting off the mentoring relationship in a positive way and to avoid the dangers that befall mentoring relationships.
A popular author and speaker, Edna Ellison, PhD, has addressed women in almost every state in the US and has led womens conferences across Europe and South and Middle America. A humorist at heart, Edna loves collecting Christian jokes and leading women in her church in the Beautiful Hat Society, a group of Christian women who meet monthly for encouragement, laughter, and a time of sharing their mentoring adventures. Edna Ellison has raised two children and loves to spend time with her grandchild, Blakely.
