I found the book very inspiring. It was a wonderful prayer guide and something all women should read.

Great way to get into building or growing in a prayer life. I truly enjoyed this book and would recommend it. Some of the tips and prayers were useful.

This is a good guide to help you increase daily prayers. I was not expecting as much as when in the book and enjoyed the light readings and prompts that help to connect to God deeper and increase prayer life. This is a great guide to help with spiritual practice for those at any stage of their faith.

The 30-Day Prayer Challenge for Women was a really nice devotional. Each day had a devotion, scripture verse, questions for thought, and finally prayer starters for morning/noon/night. I found that very nice and recommend this for any woman looking for a nice devotion for prayer.

This is a great month long study of prayer and how important it is to our walk with the Lord. I highly recommend!

Challenges of all types can be found on the internet, but this one comes in book form. Nicole O'Dell provides us women with a 30 Day Prayer Challenge that aids in developing a habit of prayer.  The chapters are interactive as they encourage you to read Scriptures, meditate on what you've read and then provides prayers for morning, noon, and evening.  

Although this book is geared for those who have less experience in daily prayer,  those seasoned in prayer can still benefit.  With Scripture reading, devotionals, and reflective questions the 30 Day Prayer Challenge challenges us to be focused on the Lord throughout the day. It gives examples for for morning, afternoon and evening prayers.

The 30-Day Prayer Challenge for Women is a wonderful devotional. Each devotional is titled by topic. Each contains a verse, devotional, questions, and prayer prompts. I always love devotionals with titles by topic so you can easily skip to what you may need for the day.

The questions for each devotional are organized into a section called "what's up?" I really like these questions because they can easily be used as journal prompts. I always suggest taking notes on your devotionals, but these questions help you go beyond the usual note taking. The questions themselves are very well-written. They are wonderful reflective questions that really help you take a good look at your own life and better apply what you learned in the devotional.

I also enjoyed the prayer prompts. I tend to ignore given prayers in devotionals because I believe prayer should be personal. While the book does give short examples to each prompt, it allows you to stay on topic and still have a very personal prayer time. I also want to note there are three prayer prompts per day (morning, afternoon, and evening). I find that it may be helpful to set alarms as reminders for prayer time, otherwise I miss the afternoon prayer and have to add it to my evening.

I give this book 5 out of 5 stars. It's a wonderful devotional that helps you grow through prayer.

I received this book for free from netgalley in exchange for this honest review.

I thought this was a neat 30- day prayer Challenge. It helped with ideas and to guide you with prayer. I would recommend this book.

This is undated which I love, it has day 1, 2 etc but you can begin anytime. Middle of the month, skip days then come back. I love devotionals that are not dated 1st to 30th then I don’t feel guilty when life happens and life happened.
Each chapter/day begins with a scripture verse, then a devotion, followed by reflection questions in the “what’s up” section and finally the prayer prompts.
The prayer prompts are broken into morning, afternoon and evening so that you are coming back to prayer throughout the day on a particular topic. Love that. The prayer prompts have both a guide as well as an example. This is great because it caters to both the beginner and those who feel more confident to pray their own words.
I don’t like that the scripture translation changes throughout the book but there are some who may like this.

I received an eBook copy from NetGalley for an honest review. All opinions expressed are my own.
This book is a good devotional that can be used by any woman. It has a prayer, scripture verse, and question for reflection. There were a few days that I accidentally skipped and rather than try to complete them all the next day I continued from where I left off so it took me a little longer than 30 days to complete. I'm glad I was able to use this prayer challenge!

Nicole O'Dell's 30-Day Prayer Challenge for Women takes its reader through 30 short, yet concise, selections aimed at the heart of women's daily struggles. From gossip to a patience, each selection includes a Scripture reference, short devotional, questions for reflection, and three prayers to pray throughout the day: morning, afternoon, and evening. O'Dell's writing is honest and relatable while still hitting at the heart of the issue. I would recommend this book for any women looking for a beginning devotional or looking to re-establish a quiet time habit.

Happy Reading!

This devotional by Nicole O’Dell dedicated to women, provides 30 days of prayer, scripture, and follow-up questions to reflect on. It gives you daily prayers for morning, noon, and evening to sustain you throughout the day. This is a wonderful book to jumpstart your daily prayer habit and made me learn to stop 3 times a day to reflect on God’s word.

This was a good devotional. The author covers a lot of important topics that face women. Each day the author shares a scripture passage, along with thoughts and personal stories relating back to the passage.

What I really liked about the devotional is she gives the readers action items through questions or actions for the reader. Finally, each day ends with prayer prompts for morning, afternoon, and evening prayer times. Including examples of what one can pray.

The devotions are geared toward adult women that are married.

This book literally has 30 days of prayers. I found the book to be very easy/quick to read each morning.
it includes a daily bible verse, a few paragraphs about the bible verse, questions for you, and prayer prompts. I did forget to look at it completely a few days... I decided to just do that prayer the next day instead of squeezing in 2 in one day.

This was a great read, especially for right before Advent. It seemed like every day, the text pertained to exactly what I was feeling or struggling with. I really liked how every day had three prayers, and not only that, but examples.

The situations were realistic and relatable. The writing was engaging and easy to read. This is perfect for women who want a little bit of prayer during the day, but in an easy format. I loved this!

The 30 Day Prayer Challenge for Women is an AMAZING book. If you are in need of being more serous about your prayer life and drawing closer to God... This book is for you. This book has drawn me closer to God and IT'S RIGHT ON TIME... ONLY GOD can do that. God's speaking through the author in a very special way and no matter who you are... this book has the ability to speak to you in a personalized manner. The daily prayers are so on point. The short devotion is really enlightening and speaks directly to the heart. After 30 Days of reading, praying and applying this book to your life... I'm sure there will be transformation.

P.S: This book will make a wonderful Christmas gift

Thank you to NetGalley and Barbour Publishing, Inc. for the read of Nicole O’Dell’s, The 30-Day Prayer Challenge for Women.

I could have read this book in one sitting. Instead, I chose to delight in the inspiration from every one of the 30 days. I looked forward to waking up and reading the daily bible verse, the journaling that resonated with me – because they did, and the prompts and prayers were lovely. I found myself returning to certain ones throughout the day.

I highly recommend this beautiful book of daily prayer and contemplation. It will surely give you reason to stop for a few moments and fill up on the many graces from our Lord.

This small book by Nicole O’Dell is a quick read. A tiny introduction, and you’re right into the 30 days of prayer, and even those are very short and to the point. You get a small Bible verse, a couple of questions to ruminate over during your Bible study in the morning, and then three prayer prompts laid out in a morning, afternoon and evening layout.

I’d say this fairly bare bones book would be great for the challenge of 3 prayers a day for 30 days. I don’t think I’ve ever consistently prayed like this before, and I’m not sure I’d have done it in this fashion without the aid of this book and the author’s beautifully written prayers. My personal prayers are never as eloquent as hers. But just know going in that there's not a whole lot to it.

Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for sending me a copy of the book to review.

4 stars!

A great resource to help in starting a useful habit.

I voluntarily read an advanced copy.
