Please note, Hawkeye is rated TV-14. In the MCU, Clint Barton serves as a mentor to a lot of heroes. He's the one who got Black Widow to join the good guys. He later does the same for Wanda with the Avengers. In this way, he is similar to Ananias for Paul during his conversion. Clint also serves as an inspiration to many in the public through his role as an Avenger. We see this at the start of the Hawkeye series with Kate Bishop. As a young girl, Kate was in New York during the attack in the first Avengers film. She lost her dad that day. She almost lost her life. When she looks out from the rubble, though, she sees Clint out there with a bow and arrow keeping her safe and making sure things don't get worse. The first thing Kate does after this is take up her own bow and arrow and learn archery. She gets so good to the point that even Hawkeye admits she actually is one of the best out there. At the end of the Gospel according to Matthew, Jesus calls on the Disciples to go out and make other disciples of "all nations". Those Disciples, in turn, appoint others, such as the Deacon Phillip, to continue to share the Good News. Phillip himself reaches out to an Ethiopian Eunuch to explain the Scriptures, continuing the cycle of bringing others to know our Lord Jesus Christ. Thus we are all called to be examples leading others to our Lord. Our example is meant to help others in turn bring further people back to God. Clint does the same for being a hero. He helps Kate realize she can be a hero too, which has a huge impact for the rest of her life. Hopefully we can be Clints to others too as we try to help others deepen their relationship with God.
