Thirty Days in Proverbs 31

by Pam Forster

Does Proverbs 31’s description of the woman who “surpasses them all” ever make you feel overwhelmed, discouraged, or even a bit guilty? Proverbs 31 is not a checklist to accomplish in order to prove our worth. It's not a list of goals to achieve in our own strength. The Proverbs 31 Woman is not meant to be an intimidating example, setting up burdensome expectations we can never live up to. Instead of being overwhelmed by everything this woman does, let’s study her and learn what makes her tick. Let’s focus on fearing the Lord like she does. And if we truly fear Him, then obeying Him and applying His wisdom in our lives will become a joy. We know it’s not easy, getting into God's Word when life is busy all around you—but this study will help! By giving you short study assignments (about 15-20 minutes a day), Thirty Days in Proverbs 31 guides you through an in-depth study of the Virtuous Woman—an example we can truly admire and look to for inspiration.

This book was really helpful is introducing some Bible study tools I'd never heard of or used before. Some cool, thoughtful insights into Prov. 31. Sometimes the writing style was a little obnoxious, but overall it was helpful and I came away with a better appreciation of the chapter and understanding of it. Also, I like how the author doesn't just tell you everything, but always asks you to pray, as well as think about any changes you might be able to apply to your own life, etc.
