Summary

This week in the Historical Mentors series Leslie offers Biblical perspective on responding to human weakness in our spiritual mentors. While it's easy to put our Christian heroes on a pedestal, it's critical that we remember that none of them were perfect and all of them had struggles and made mistakes. Instead of focusing primarily on the people we admire, we can redirect our focus toward God's work in and through their lives, and His faithfulness through all of their ups and downs. In this episode, Leslie offers encouragement for responding to weakness in our heroes and keeping our gaze on the One who never fails.

1:29.9	in history, we read their stories and we're so awe inspired by what God did and through their lives,
1:36.3	it's really easy to put them up on a pedestal or to think that they were somehow perfect,
