Discipleship Part 2: Mentorship "Connect"
Mentorship is more than guidance—it’s a relationship that shapes and strengthens both mentor and mentee. Simply Chosen invites you to another event dedicated to deepening our understanding of biblical mentorship. A mentor is an experienced and trusted advisor, offering wisdom, encouragement, and time to help others grow. Great mentors are hard to find, but their impact is impossible to lose.
As Proverbs 27:17 (NIV) reminds us:
"As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another."
Join us as we connect, learn, and grow together in the call to discipleship.
Our Speakers
Banji Sokoya
Born in Nigeria in the late 1950s. Became a believer in Christ Jesus in 1982 — her final year of college. Wife, mother of two sons and two daughters-in-love and the doting grandmother of currently two grandkids, she believes her Christian walk is a walk of daily surrender and submission to our Blessed God: Three in One Godhead—Faithful Glorious Father, Son and Holy Spirit!
Monica Schmelter
As a little girl Monica walked into the living and announced that one day would be on television talking about God. That's a pretty big declaration - especially when no one in the family attends church or even says they are a Christian. As a teen Monica gave her heart to Christ and felt a stirring to study media in college. Fast forward to today Monica serves as the General Manager of Christian Television Network in Nashville. She hosts a daily television show called Bridges that airs in over 50 million homes across the country.
Monica has been married to her husband Joe for 39 years and they have one adult son named Joseph. Monica loves to spend time with her family and says much of her life can be described as "Me and My Two Joes"
