I feel like I need to explain why I gave it a 2/5. The first few chapters were amazing and I highlighted a lot. But about a third of the way through I realized that this book was shifting more towards being for women. In fact, I had no idea the writer was a woman up to this point. With most of the stories coving the women of the Bible, I had a hard time resonating with them. At about halfway through it fully lost my attention as a guy, which is a shame because the first third of the book was exceptionally good for both men and women. Would I recommend it for women? Yes. I just wished I had known from the start that it would more geared for women instead of men. Kelly Minter's studies are meaty and thought provoking. God has used her studies in my life to bring me closer to hHim in both knowledge and intimacy. One of the things I most appreciate about her bible studies is the fact that I can do them on my own without pressure of weekly homework before the next meeting time. It is much more enjoyable for me. Minter takes her bible studies behind the scenes of the Word and gives you more background information. I have treasured my time in each one of her studies.
Excellent study, not quite as good as her Nehemiah study, but still an excellent Bible study.
