“Starting out in campus ministry I felt like I didn’t know what I was doing—so I looked for people who’d been doing it longer. I found a few, but the feeling of isolation never really left me—I always felt like NCMA could do more to help newcomers. When Bethany came along, I thought, “Of course! This is what I’m supposed to do!”

“Early in my career, the Bethany model of support allowed me to develop habits, spiritual disciplines, and a rich network of support that continues to sustain and nurture my ministry today. I chose to become a mentor because I believe the Spirit moves within the Bethany process, equipping, empowering and supporting religious leaders in the significant work they do each day.”

“From the tastes and teases of the Bethany Fellows mentoring model I have been able to participate in already, I have a sense that the depth of experience afforded by this process is much needed. It’s the kind of experience I’ve benefited from in my ministry, and I’m excited to offer it to others.
