Meet Our Team
We believe no one should walk their faith journey alone. At The Mentoring Project we go alongside every follower of Christ grow spiritually through biblical guidance and mentoring. Everything we do is driven by one desire to see believers grow in faith, love, and their relationship with Christ.
John and Ludie Nugier
Founders
John and Ludie Nugier are devoted followers of Christ who call California’s central valley home. After John’s successful career in business, the Nugiers have dedicated themselves to living a high-impact life, investing in the eternal good of others.
Their desire is to pass on their hard-won wisdom to coming generations, and to see other Christians take up the task of mentoring. This is the vision behind The Mentoring Project.
What is The Mentoring Project? It’s a storehouse of resources for mentees and mentors and any Christian men and women who want to grow in any area of life. These resources are to be read, shared, and put into action. Our hope is that these resources inspire and equip all who read them to live comprehensively God-honoring lives.
