Family Ministries Resource Page | We live in a complex world. Raising the next generation to own their faith has never been more challenging—or more necessary. Yet, in the Scriptures, we see three institutions that God created: The Family, The Church, and the Nation—but the family is the foundation of society.

Here at MBC, one of our core values is building strong families. One of the ways we do this is by equipping parents and their children to navigate the difficult issues of the day.

This .page is for you. Below you will find some suggested resources to help you answer the most pressing issues of the day. Don’t see something? Ask us a question below!

I charge you in the presence of God and of Christ Jesus, who is to judge the living and the dead, and by his appearing and his kingdom: preach the word; be ready in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, and exhort, with complete patience and teaching. For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths. As for you, always be sober-minded, endure suffering, do the work of an evangelist, fulfill your ministry.

-2 Timothy 4:1-5, ESV-

Radical Mentoring

September 14, 2022June 17, 2022 by Heather Wenzel

Radical Mentoring is a special type of men’s small group made up of high potential young men facilitated by a more senior, more mature man. The vision is to help these younger men live God-centric lives and fulfill their God-given potential.

It is our goal to impact the lives of younger men in a way that points them toward an integrated Christian life. We believe that we can have successful careers and be learners and followers of Jesus and be great husbands, fathers, church members, sons, civic leaders, disciple-makers and friends . . . all at the same time.

During this fall we will have two mentoring groups. The mentors will endeavor to share what they’ve learned about success, most often focusing on what they have screwed up on . . . hopefully, so that you can avoid the mistakes they made along the way. We will spend significant time on understanding who we are in God’s eyes, how to better relate to our wives, and how to best raise children. We’ll spend even more time on getting to know what it means to have a vibrant, living relationship with Jesus.

The type of guys we are looking for are . . .

Objective men: willing to take direct, pervasive feedback without being defensive; willing to look themselves in the mirror and make changes to improve
Humble men, hungry for personal growth
Men with a passionate commitment to Jesus
Men with a willingness to pay it forward and influence other guys in the future

The program involves a monthly three-hour meeting. Each meeting will be centered around a topic, and there will be a related book to reading, personal and relational assignments to complete and a verse or two of Scripture to memorize or study.

If you are interested in being in a mentoring group, please email your completed Application to Pastor Dave at dave@millingtonbaptist.org.

Our guest speakers from First Choice Women’s Resource Center, Aimee Huber and Dave Spain, will talk about this important cultural touchpoint from a man’s perspective. Dave experienced an unplanned pregnancy years ago. He and his girlfriend carried the baby to term and married. Dave will share his and other stories from his experience counseling men involved in unplanned pregnancies and with abortion.

Invite a friend and join with us as we share some breakfast time together and hear more about Tom’s experiences.

Our guest for the morning will be Tom Russo. Tom recently published his first book, a memoir of his life experiences and how he gave up New Jersey politics and found faith as a born again Christian.

The purpose of his book, There Are No Politics In Heaven, is to help individuals work through their brokenness and improve their lives with Jesus as their cornerstone.
