(Adapted from Ron Lee Davis, Mentoring, pp. 50-51, unfortunately out of print)
A willingness to spend the time it takes to build an intensely bonded relationship with the learner.
A commitment to believing in the potential and future of the learner; to telling the learner what kind of exciting future you see ahead for him or her; to visualizing and verbalizing the possibilities of his or her life.
A willingness to be vulnerable and transparent before the learner, willing to share not only strengths and successes, but also weaknesses, failures, brokenness, and sins.
A willingness to be honest yet affirming in confronting the learner’s errors, faults, and areas of immaturity.
A commitment to standing by the learner through trials—even trials that are self-inflicted as a result of ignorance or error.
A commitment to helping the learner set goals for his or her spiritual life, career, or ministry, and to helping the learner dream his or her dream.
A willingness to objectively evaluate the learner’s progress toward his or her goal.
Above all, a commitment to faithfully put into practice all that one teaches the learner.
