A young preacher is in need of training, a congregation who will be patient with him, and men to continue mentoring him throughout the years. I was blessed to go to a wonderful preaching school. I have been blessed with loving and patient congregations that have encouraged me (even through some rough sermons!). And I have been blessed with many wonderful mentors. As I look at who I am as a preacher, I attribute much to the Jenkins Institute. Their genuine desire for young preachers to succeed, coupled with their ability to mentor is impressive. There have been countless Conferences, Webinars, Videos, and Articles that they have produced (sometimes daily!) that have left me with new clever ideas and a renewed passion. Jeff and Dale strive to remind the young preacher to serve the brethren, proclaim to the lost, and ultimately please the Lord. Beyond the “nuts and bolts” help that they provide, the individual encouragement and friendship that they give through text messages, emails, and face-to-face conversations will forever be cherished. Every young preacher needs a Jeff and Dale in their corner, and with the Jenkins Institute, they can!
