A powerfully dynamic Bible study. The format makes it applicable to all levels of maturity in the faith. I love that the readings drive me and challenge me to press deeper into Scripture and pray through what God is saying to me, rather than tell me what to think. Every entry follows the same format: A passage to read, a key verse to focus your meditation on (if desired), an Understand prompt, an Apply prompt and a Prayer prompt. The Understand prompt is full of questions to probe your heart and your mind (like planting seeds), while the Apply prompt churns to soil to enable the seeds to take root and the Prayer prompt is like watering the seeds of Truth and encouragement just planted. I highly recommend this for all women in the faith for a nourishing devotional.
I received a complimentary copy and all opinions expressed are my own and freely given.

Inspirational women's daily devotion book for women of all ages. Each 5-minute devotion includes: Key Verse (1 Thessalonians 5:1-11); Understand (thought provoking questions); Apply (devotional short story and how to apply the Bible verses); and Prayer. Highly recommended and wonderful way of beginning your morning in God's word.

I really love this devotional. It’s a quick structured way to really have quiet time in the morning. It sets a great tone for the way and eases my mind. I highly recommend this devotional.

Not my type of study. I'm usually all over these type, but this one was a bit flat. Like a more personal level.

Thanks to author,publisher and Netgalley for the chance to read this book. While I got the book for free,it had no bearing on the rating I gave it.

This book is a great tool for studying the bible daily for 5 minutes a day. Each day a new passage is presented, and an explanation or meaning of the passage is presented. The author gets you to think about how this passage applies to your daily life. I think this is a great way for the modern busy woman to learn lessons from the bible, because it's not time consuming. I enjoy reading each passage, and finding the deeper meaning behind it.

**I am writing this honest review based on a free pre-release copy of this book sent to me from the publisher via NetGalley.

When my alarm goes off and I roll out of bed, I stumble to the bathroom, then feed the dogs, shower, dress for the day, all while prodding my daughter to get ready for school. Sound familiar? Almost everyone experiences the busyness of mornings—rushing to get ready for work, get kids off to school, complete household tasks, etc. Rushing in turn creates stress, irritation, and impatience. This book was written to give you an alternative way to start your day—by studying God’s Word for at least 5 minutes of your busy morning. You are encouraged to spend 1-2 minutes reading the daily scripture passage, about a minute consider prompts designed to help you better understand the reading, a minute to read a brief application, and a minute to pray with a helpful guide.

I found the scriptures chosen to be very appropriate and applicable to my life as a woman, mother, and a daughter of Christ. The questions and devotions were significant and caused me to be reflective. Best of all, the devotions can truly be done quickly, while still being meaningful. I found this book to be a wonderful tool, as I often get caught up in the rush of preparing for my day. Taking those few minutes to have a quiet time with God daily makes a real difference in my heart and mind. You won’t regret reading this book! It is perfect for someone wanting to work on beginning the routine of a daily quiet time in the mornings.

I LOVE my morning routine! I start the morning with Two Minute Mornings outlining my gratitude. This will be the perfect complement to my routine! I agree with Ms. Tipton's introduction that you set your intentions for the day. God's word is the perfect way to start the day. The simplicity of the time (5 minutes) is motivating in that I can do this and I can continue to do this every day. I am looking forward to purchasing the print copy!

The 5-Minute Bible Study for Women: Mornings in God’s word is a nice little devotional for the busy woman. Every morning you are presented with a passage in the bible and a key verse out of that passage.
Annie Tipton then asks questions for us to ponder on and to make the verse accessible for our every day life.
The author then gives example how we can apply the verse, to make it easier to live God’s word in our day-to-day.
A prayer at the end of each daily devotional wraps everything up nicely together.

Tipton did a great job in providing a easy-to-read Devotional every woman can follow.
