Spiritual Mothering: The Titus 2 Model for Women Mentoring Women [Paperback]

Susan Hunt (Author), George Grant (Foreword)

Book Description

Publication Date: February 4, 2009

Presents a fully biblical and extremely practical vision for intergenerational ministry so that women of all ages can know the blessing of spiritual mother-daughter relationships.

For many churches, women's ministries, and women's Bible study groups, the missing element of discipleship is the interpersonal aspect. Titus 2:3-5 clarifies what mature spiritual relationships between generations of women should look like. Susan Hunt unveils how to put that model into action with stories of biblical and contemporary women who have responded to God's call, as well as page after page of personal encouragement, practical insight, and ministry-tested how-to's.

Through this wisdom-packed book, churches, groups, and individuals will be equipped to reach across generational lines-and inspired to experience the blessing of nurturing, godly relationships so that every Christian woman may flourish in her faith.

This text provides a good example of how one can be a mentor no matter what stage of life you are at or your giftedness. Encourages you to get involved in another's life and be a godly influence. Great for women's study groups/discussion.

By A Customer

Format:Paperback

Mrs. Hunt addresses the subject of biblical mentoring with passion and grace. This book is not merely a "how-to", but provides a strong foundation for loving relationships between women, with God's glory being the chief end and highest goal of such relationships.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspires you both to seek and offer spiritual mothering June 12, 2000

By Gerald Culley

Format:Paperback

The command in Titus 2 for older women to teach younger women has long been on my heart and I have desired to reach out beyond my own daughters, but have not often had the opportunity to develop such a relationship with others. I wish older women had reached out to me when I was younger and did not realize how much I needed their help and encouragement. This book is great for women of all ages. It encourages the younger to seek the wisdom of the older, and the older to share what God has taught them. We are starting group studies of this book in our church.
