Well, that was an Honor!
I’ve never considered myself a mentor before. Maybe I should start considering myself one, as I do really enjoy teaching and training, but I’ve never actually thought of myself like that before. I’m too young, I’m not educated enough, blah blah blah. But, in reality, whenever you are able to teach someone just a little bit of something and continue teaching on it, even just a little bit, you are a mentor.
My pastor honored me be actually calling me his “blogging mentor.” Pretty cool that even though it might be slightly in jest, he views even small tips about blogging as being mentored for him. Thanks, Wade.
In the meantime, you should check out his very touching story about his relationship with his high school math teacher. It’s a bit of a long read, but well worth it.
Coming tomorrow, a LONG overdue review of Craig Groeschel’s newest book, “Going All the Way.”
Ryan - You are a MENTOR to so many of us! Thanks for all you do - and thanks again for the Music Theory series! Your service to others is so greatly appreciated!

Hey, thanks for your kind words. It is a great responsibility, though, isn’t it? A fantastic privilege to teach, yet it should be treated with respect. I’m very glad to have you along side. You teach me so many things as well!

I guess I wasn’t really joking, but I did the “quotation thing” because I was guessing you didn’t consider yourself a mentor.
I was right!
Press on,
