This holds true to the name...very short devotional. It is Biblically sound. Not that the Biblical truth isn’t for all ages, but I would say it is geared toward older women given the language and examples used.

Fun little devotional focused on Proverbs. Would recommend for those looking for something to help them get into the book of Proverbs.

3-Minute Devotions from the Proverbs was a wonderful devotional. I found the devotions insightful and loved how each one had a verse from Proverbs.

While the devotions were short, I found that helpful for when you don't have a lot of time. This would be a great devotional for in the morning when you don't have a lot of time.

All in all, I really liked this devotional.

I have been using this little devotional daily for a bit now. I think it is a wonderful book for women who are busy and on the go. There is a scripture, a short devotional along with a prayer. This devotional is for women of all ages and stages of life. Anyone who loves the book of Proverbs as I do will enjoy this very much.

I received complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley. I am under no obligation to share my opinions.

My Review:

My Thoughts: These devotions are encouraging and helpful! The length is just perfect to read while doing anything and they are uplifting and you can easily connect as you read them you'll be able to feel like the author knew just want to say. And they probably did. ;)

And the cover is so pretty!

(I received this book in exchange for my honest review and I am truly happy to provide it!)

I am not a quick devotional person. However, the reason I wanted this and love this is because no matter how matter how many times you read Proverbs you learn something new which is why I believe God has 31 chapters. This little book can help you enjoy and kickstart the Proverbs a Day challenge which is simple on the day of the month it is read that Proverb. For example today is January 26 I read Chapter 26.

This little book is a great way to start the day by spending a few minutes with God, learning about the Proverbs. The short passages in the book make it perfect for really thinking about one proverb, what it means, and how it applies to daily life. Highly recommend!

So, get comfy. Enjoy!
The words of WISDOM and encouragement on these pages are meant to suffuse your soul; after all, our Heavenly Father is watching over us all.

Follow God's righteous plan, and take a few minutes, 3 to be exact,
and let God's love RENEW you,

Sadly I was not a fan of this book. The title advertises it is a 3 minute devotion but it was more like a 30 second devotion. I was expecting a 1-3 pages of scripture and application. but instead this book was more like a quote for the day. I wanted it to be deeper and more spiritual than it was. I don't really think it qualifies as a devotion. More of an inspirational quote for the day. So the title is misleading.

Great 3 minute devotions for women. As a woman, sometimes I feel that I am struggling with my own spirituality and Christianity. This was a great read for the start of my day.

I am loving this devotional! If you can spare 3-minutes per day, you will reap the benefits of a scripture verse from the book of Proverbs, a short devotional based on that verse, and a prayer to apply the truths learned in the two. The devotionals are easily applied to daily life for women of all ages. I was looking for a new daily devotional when I found this selection on netgalley and I couldn't be more pleased with it.
Check it out and leave a review so that others will know what you think of it as well.
I am rating this book 5 stars and highly recommend it.

Wisdom for Women

The Rebecca Currington Snapdragon Group and MariLee Parish are offering a book with 174 "3-Minute Devotions from the Proverbs: Wisdom for Women" which is published by Barbour Publishing. The devotions are concise and are divided into three steps, meant to be accomplished in one minute each: 1) a Scripture reading, 2) a short devotional reading, and 3) a prayer as a jump start for the communication with God. The devotions deal with current, real-life issues, e.g. the one for Proverbs 21.5 "Careful Planning" deals with the issue of being torn by people's expectations. They can touch every woman in every age group. The scripture quotations are marked so that the reader sees from which Bible translation they are taking. Furthermore, the book offers a scripture index at the end of the book which facilitates the finding of the devotion to a particular verse in the Proverbs. The book presents nice graphics, not only on the title page, but repeated in the book.

I recommend this book to those who want to have short devotions that are taken from the Proverbs.
The complimentary copy of this book was provided by the publisher through NetGalley free of charge. I was under no obligation to offer a positive review. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

Exactly what I was looking for. 3-Minute Devotions from the Proverbs, is a great devotional book to start my day.

Minute Devotions from the Proverbs Wisdom for Women by Barbour Staff is a beautiful, enchanting and poetic book of reflections and meditation about life, starting by a verse for every meditation taken by the Book of Proverbs, my favorite Biblical book and one of the most wonderful books of all the entire Bible. After the little sacred verse, an encouraging meditation and then a little prayer for Lord. For being good, for accepting the life you live, for trying to understand God's desires for your existence and also for understand yourself much better, looking at yourself with God's Eyes.
Bring this precious book wherever you go, after all three minutes of meditation are just a little moment of your busy day to dedicate at yourself and at the divine contact with Lord; but it will make the difference, you will see!


I thank NetGalley and Barbour for this ebook.

This was a nice devotion book. I enjoyed the scripture chosen, the devotions themselves, and the little summary paragraph at the end of each devotion. This would be a nice devotional book to give to any female friends or loved ones.

I would definitely recommend this book for a variety of women who have few minutes as they rush about with their daily lives...work, errands, children's schedules, etc. These are literally 3-minute devotions but that will touch the aspects of your busy and harried life.

Thank you to NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

This short but powerful devotion was just what someone needs for a quick pick me up. Easy to read that can be carried around with you easily, taken out when the need calls for it. A great way to carry the Proverbs with you. I recommend this book.
