Seeing the Need: Growing Godly Friendships in the Church is a practical and encouraging Bible-based study designed for personal reflection, women's Bible classes, and retreat settings.In a world where relationships are often shallow or strained, Christian women are called to something deeper-friendships rooted in compassion, service, and faith in Christ. Through Scripture, real-life examples, and thoughtful discussion questions, Susan D. Elliott guides readers to recognize the needs of others and respond with love, courage, and action.This study explores biblical examples of friendship and service, including the Shunammite woman, Esther, and Christ Himself, while addressing real issues women face today. Each chapter includes study questions and hands-on exercises that work equally well for individual Bible study, small groups, ladies' Bible classes, and women's retreats.Whether used independently or in a group setting, Seeing the Need challenges women to look beyond themselves, strengthen godly relationships, and live out their faith in meaningful ways-within the church and beyond.
