In this episode, Dr. Alan Stoddard shares the valuable lessons he learned from the influential mentors who shaped his journey, highlighting the importance of mentorship in spiritual leadership. Reflecting on his experiences, Dr. Stoddard encourages contemporary pastors and Christian leaders to invest in the next generation of preachers and leaders.

3. Sermon based small-groups.
