In his book, Recreating the Church: Leadership for the Postmodern Age, Dick Hamm says the following about mentoring relationships in a postmodern age:
“We usually think of mentors as older people with wisdom born of experience, who share that wisdom with younger people. Such mentoring is important, and there needs to be more of it happening. However, in the face of the rapid change all about us, there is a new kind of mentoring needed today. We who are immigrants in the postmodern world need young mentors, natives, who will help us learn the language, paradigms, challenges, and issues of this new day. Thus, as never before, mentoring should be a two-way street, with older and younger colleagues connecting with one another, developing these two-way mentoring relationships for the sake of the whole church.” [55]
