Raised in Texas to a Spanish-speaking household, he and his wife and son lived in California before moving to the Portland area in 2007.  Al has served on over 10 non-profit boards/committees focused on helping youth and is excited to shift careers from the for-profit to non-profit worlds. He began his mentoring journey as a college student in Texas and hasn't stopped, believing firmly that most of the problems in society could be solved through mentoring. On weekends Al and his family love to check out car meets.Here's some info on Faithful Friends: We cultivate mentor relationships that inspire growth, resilience, and hope.In 1991, Duncan Campbell set out to determine the best way to transform the most vulnerable children's lives. He was determined to find a way to help children that was grounded in solid research, was focused on quantifiable results and considered the return on investment. A two-year research project identified that the best way to create real change is to start working with children early and provide each of them with a long-term, consistent relationships with caring adults. Based on these findings, Duncan founded Friends of the Children in 1993. Duncan wasn't finished! For over 30 years, he has hoped to see the Christian faith community serve vulnerable children through mentoring. In January 2013, Duncan Campbell was introduced to Josh White, the lead pastor of Door of Hope Church in Portland. Duncan shared his vision for the church to be an active participant in serving the needs of vulnerable children in the city. Together with Josh, they formed a vision to birth a faith-based mentoring program out of Door of Hope. This program would become Faithful Friends Mentoring Program.Faithful Friends began in March 2013 and now has 20 church partnerships and over 70 active mentor/mentee matches.https://faithfulfriendspdx.org/

Invitation to InviteWe get it. Sometimes it's hard to hang out with your mentee and feel good about it. Maybe you don't have a ton in common. Even if you do have a ton in common, it can be hard to strike up a conversation with a kid. So what do you do to build the relationship?There is a temptation to always do the “cool” thing. Take them to the movies, putt-putt, a professional sports game… We get that. But that's hard to pull off and doing it more than a few times a year will leave you broke. So what do we do?Here's a trick. Invite them into your life. Whatever you are doing, just invite them along. Because our kids want our attention more than they want the “cool thing”.When you:Go to the grocery storeMow the yardWash the carRun errandsThe best mentors invite their mentee into their everyday life. They just do life adn invite their mentee to do it alongside them. That's life on life. No extra effort needed. Just inviteThat's Jesus. Jesus invites. He says “Come…”Invite your mentee to join your life. What's the worst that happens? You get rejected by a kid. You can handle that. Besides, You never know if they will say yes. And you never know what connection will happen if they say yes. Just keep inviting.

A recent participant in Leadership Edge Mentor Training commented, “I was encouraged that Biblical mentoring can be simple and yet impactful.” With this episode, Laura and John begin a four-part series on Leadership Edge's Mentor Training. In this episode, they discuss “What Is Christian Mentoring?”, “How Is It That It Is Biblical?” and “How Does Christian Mentoring Fit with A Vision for All of Life?” Listen in to learn about the simplicity and impact of Christian Mentoring.

My guest this episode is MAJ Liliane Delva, USA. Liliane was initially interviewed for an article on Christian Mentoring that appeared in the Spring 2021 issue of COMMAND magazine. In this episode, Liliane talks about the significance of the 9/11 attacks on her Army career, how her parents immigrated from Haiti and made it a point to keep the family away from some of the voodoo practices they saw while living there, and she also talks about how trauma from a molestation as a child had a profound impact on her life, creating much fear and anxiety, before she followed that gentle nudging from God to get help and healing. As a reminder: If you have an idea for a guest, topic, or story that I should consider for a future episode of the show, send an email to podcast@ocfusa.org or to josh.jackson@ocfusa.org. As you listen to Liliane's story, here are a few questions to ponder in your personal time or with a small group or mentor. Liliane discusses joining the military at a time when a military career was “marketed” as an opportunity for college scholarships and developing skill sets, and how the events of 9/11 caused her to reconsider what her military service really meant. How does her resolve to fulfill her commitment, to “not go back on my word,” align with what Jesus tells us in Matthew 5:37 to “…let your ‘yes' be ‘yes,' and your ‘no' be ‘no'”?  Liliane was born and raised in Haiti where the “blending of different belief systems” including voodoo was common. With a “reverence for God” intact from her Catholic upbringing, as a teen Liliane determined to “find out and establish a relationship with God for myself.” How does establishing a relationship with God differ from merely practicing a religion? “The way we envision the word ‘father,' and the image that we see regarding ‘father' or ‘dad' is very important because it can influence the way we see God.” Liliane says she sees in God the Father the same attributes that she felt from her earthly father in how he loved, cared, and protected her as an authority figure. What is your view of God? How does that impact your life—or the way you treat others, especially if you have kids? Reflect on these statements from Liliane: “God is really in everything we do, and He is really present in every aspect of our lives,” and “There is a greater strength in you than you realize that allows you to overcome, and that's the strength you find in God.” In what ways do these thoughts amaze you, especially in knowing these are from a woman who overcame sexual abuse?

In this episode we learn from the wisdom and experience of Legacy Pastor Ken Lewis about the Christian calling to be mentors and mentees in Christian discipleship relationships.

A crisis like the COVID-19 Pandemic quickly reveals to believers what are those things in which they’ve placed their hope and trust. In this episode, John and Laura discuss how God uses Christian mentoring relationships to build-up and encourage both the mentor and the mentee to keep their hope and trust in the Lord amid this crisis. John shares several scripture passages, quotes from Christians who have gone before us and recent stories from his mentoring relationships to make the case that now is a perfect time for Christian mentoring.
