100 Questions to Fuel Mentoring Relationships
If you’re involved in a mentoring relationship, you may appreciate these conversation-starters. “I developed a list of 100 questions that I’d love to ask an older woman. Some of the questions are autobiographical, others are advice-driven. We can learn a great deal from each other if, over time, we discover how we have lived, what God has done in our lives, and what we have learned.”
