Becoming

Becoming: Mentorship Matters is a spiritual mentoring program for the women of Houston’s First Baptist Church. Becoming is designed to help create a community for our women to be real, share their stories and grow spiritually. This mentoring program is built around mentors who are a season ahead, sharing godly wisdom and life experiences with younger women.

Becoming is a 9-month commitment beginning in January and concluding in September. Becoming pairs a mentor with a small group of three mentees and, while not a Bible study, the monthly discussions will focus on application of biblical truths.

• Membership at Houston’s First Baptist Church (mentors only)
• Consistent attendance and membership in a Life Bible Study class (mentors and mentees)
• Meeting together as a small group once a month
• Meeting individually, mentor to mentee, over the course of the program
• Reading pre-selected books for each month. These books, on specific topics, are chosen to strengthen our spiritual growth and deepen our relationship with the Lord. Each book will be read monthly and then discussed at the meetings
• Completing homework assignments

Mentees –The application process will be open to active Life Bible Study members October 1 through November 15. Spots will be limited as we aim to steward our resources well and offer a quality mentorship ministry that will have a profound impact on the lives and families of our younger women, as well as the future of our church.

Mentors – The application process opens in January and closes September 1. Applicants should be an active members of Houston's First Baptist Church and an active members of a Life Bible Study. Attendance at the Mentor Preview night, August 13, 2025, is required to be considered as a mentor.
