Mentoring
Baton Exchange Mentors: Professional guides, spiritual allies.
Have you ever wondered…?
“How do I combine my faith with career growth and leadership development?”
“Are there Christian professionals who will listen and respond as a ‘sounding board’ to my faith and work questions?”
“Who can help me truly live my biblical worldview in all this cultural confusion?”
It’s what we do – equip Christian 20-something’s to integrate faith, work, and leadership toward a life of redemptive influence.
Our Mentoring. How it works:
- Exploratory Zoom conversation: Get to know you and discuss your professional and spiritual goals.
- Match you to a mentor by gender and occupational interest.
- Choose 3 – 4 personal growth areas for mentoring discussion and development.
- Actively participate in one, 90-minute mentoring call per month. Most protégés meet with their personal mentor* from 4 – 12 months, as mutually agreed.
*Baton Exchange Mentors are unpaid volunteers, vetted for their spiritual-professional maturity and life experience.
Mentoring conversations are guided by the Protégé’s unique growth goals and questions. Current events will also prompt real-time discussion of worldview as it applies to faith-career transparency. Protégés use our Ask Your Mentor resource to customize their growth experience.

“Thank you for matching me with my mentor, Dondra. She is an incredible lady and I really enjoy spending one hour a month with her. I’m learning a lot from Dondra. She asks great questions, she is a great listener, and gives very helpful advice. Also, I like the new curriculum a lot. It’s true that I get out of it as much as I put in it. So, if I don’t do much, I don’t get much out of it. It’s rewarding to see that some of the goals I wrote on PIP I am achieving, or at least making important steps toward achieving them. Thank you! :)” Estera, Director of Internships, IFI. Author of Portraits of Integration
