Sometimes it is helpful to ask questions of those you are considering for your team members and helpers in the women’s ministry. Some of these questions can be asked casually as you interact with the person you want to get to know. Just slip in a question during conversation. Not all of them at one time of course.

Although you could ask some of these questions during a formal interview, getting to know a person doesn’t always have to be an interview process. You can just casually get to know people by asking the right question at any time there is an opportunity.
