It is said that: “It takes a village to raise a child,” and for Craig Thompson, a father of six from Tennessee, that adage became a reality when he created a program called 52 Godly Mentors for his children.

The idea came to him one night when he couldn’t sleep; he started thinking about his eldest son’s coming 13th birthday, an age that in many cultures marks the passage from childhood to adulthood. While he was thinking and praying about it, the idea of finding godly men to teach his child came to mind.

Tyler lives and scrambles among the mountains of Utah with his wife and 3 children. He has taught history and literature in public and private school settings. He currently teaches at a private school and homeschools his children with his wife. He writes news and human interest stories.
