Dr. Curt Scarborough, founder and Chancellor of Pillsbury College & Seminary,
is available to mentor a limited number of mid-career Christian ministers on a
one-on-one basis. He will personally tutor mature graduate-level students one
day per month . . . any day of the week except Sunday.
Here's how this Expository Studies program works:
1. A minister enrolls in the Expository Studies track, agreeing to spend a
minimum of 10 hours a week in disciplined private devotions under the guidance
of Dr. Curt Scarborough.
2. The goal is to develop personal and practical notes on selected portions of
Scripture within one year (on all 260 chapters in the New Testament, for
example). The mentoring partner will write on at least five chapters each
week, focusing on a few chosen verses in each chapter and using a suggested
simple outline:
(1) Concentration
(2) Meditation
(3) Revelation
(4) Applications
3. Every four to six weeks, the mentoring partner will meet with Dr. Scarborough personally (or by telephone or online) to review the work, to compare spiritual insights, to discuss revealed truths, and to sharpen each other's ministry skills. (See Rom. 1:11-12). At each monthly meeting, the
previous month's work will be reviewed and discussed, new assignments will be
made, and the next appointment will be scheduled.
4. At the end of one year, the mentoring partner in this example would have
produced a 260-page personal and practical devotional commentary on the entire
New Testament . . . to use in his preaching and teaching, to publish as a
book, to preserve and pass along to this family, and to serve as a resource
for mentoring others.
