The Transforming Power of Walking with a Spiritual Mentor (Lori Melton)

What happens when you spend an entire year learning from the life and wisdom of a trusted spiritual mentor? In this conversation, author and spiritual director Lori G. Melton shares her experience walking alongside the insights of Mister Fred Rogers, America’s favorite neighbor.

Drawing from her book Journey with a Giant, Lori invites us into a year-long spiritual practice of choosing a “giant of faith” to learn from. She shares how reflecting on Fred Rogers’ approach to life, faith, and presence helped her slow down, deepen her relationship with God, and gain clarity about her purpose.

Whether you choose Fred Rogers or another spiritual guide, this conversation will inspire you to:

Embrace the wisdom of those who have walked with God before you
Cultivate habits of presence, patience, and listening
Experience steady spiritual growth without striving

If you’ve been feeling spiritually stuck or longing for deeper connection, this episode offers a gentle yet powerful way to take the next step on your faith journey.
