Today in our LIVE YM Talk Aaron Giesler led us in a conversation about mentoring teenagers. He did his seminary thesis on mentoring and is currently working with people like Mark Mattlock to develop a mentoring program for teenagers. He also is one of the youth ministry mentors right here at Life In Student Ministry.

• People who mentored us
• How to start a mentoring program
• How mentoring works
• What kids looks for in a mentor
• A lot more…
