Hugs Bible Reflections for Women: 52 Inspirational Studies and Stories to Draw You Closer to God

I was looking for a Bible study type book with my earned points. I couldn't be happier with my choice. This has me looking forward to each story. I read one a day there is 52 all together. I am already trying to find another one before I complete this one because it is speaking so well to me. Today I read about how we should Love our enemies. I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to study God's word.

When I was asked to tour Mindy's book on my blog I was excited. It's not often I get the chance to review a nonfiction book or devotional that I am actually interested in. After going through the list of Mindy's books-all of the sounded fantastic!- available to tour, I settled on Hugs Bible Reflections for Women. I'm really glad I did! It's something different from your normal Bible studies and devotions, but it's still a fantastic book! In Hugs, Mindy uses many life-changing stories, all from different women, to show other women who read this about God's love and His "hugs" for each and everyone of us. Through these stories-some will make you smile and some will make you cry-Mindy shows how wonderful God is in so many ways. She helps us to have a better understanding and walk with God and how to open our hearts to Him and feel those hugs. Wonderful! At the end of each story, Mindy incorporates a reflection section, with questions and Bible verse references, just like a mini Bible study. I loved that about this book! It really brings out the meaning to the stories and helps draw us closer to our Father. I really enjoyed working through this book. My relationship with God is stronger for it. I definitely give this book 5 stars and recommend it to all the women out there: young, single, moms, grandmas, preacher's wives, married. You'll really be able to feel that much needed Heavenly Hug from a wonderful, loving Father! *A copy of this book was provided for review by Fruitful Word Ministries*
