I love the idea of this book and plan on buying a hardback copy as soon as possible. I think combining a cookbook and devotional is genius. I looked over some of the recipes and most were easy and kid-friendly (which is a plus with my 5 yo!) There are short devotions for busy mornings and longer ones for days where you can digest (literally & figuratively).

I loved this concept of this book. It is a very unique devotional book that includes recipes for breakfast to enjoy while spending time in the morning with the Lord. There are also photos of the recipes included, which I always appreciate in a cookbook. It is a beautiful hardcover book with a ribbon bookmark to keep your place.

There are 2 options: 1 that takes less time (the “snack on the go”) and 1 that is more in-depth (the “feast at the table”). I appreciate this because there are mornings when time is very limited and others that I can sit down and go further in depth.

Although I love the concept of a cookbook/devotional combo, I haven’t used them together. I am not a morning person unfortunately, so I often spend my devotional time at the end of the day. The devotionals are insightful and ask the reader questions that causes them to further contemplate the verses.

The recipes all look amazing. Make ahead breakfast burritos and rainbow fruit salad are the two that I’m most excited to try. They range from very quick and simple to a bit longer to prepare. Each recipe lists the prep time, cook time, and serving size. There are also many kid friendly recipes included.

Overall, this is a great cookbook/devotional combo that I really love and will keep in my library for years to come.

I received a copy of this book from Moody Publishers to review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

A novel concept. Combining breakfast recipes with Bible Study. So simple, so practical.
I liked the pairings of recipes to Bible Study pieces. What was especially good was that the Study is in two parts - the "Snack on the Go", for "THOSE" mornings and "Feast" for the days when you have more time. The fact that there is space for you to make your own notes etc is great. It turns the book into a journal of sort and is great to go back to time after time and reread or perhaps edit thoughts.
The indications of "freezer-friendly" and "kid-friendly" with the recipes are brilliant.
The personal anecdotes from the author make it feel "chatty" and friendly to work through. The author isn't "preachy" - she comes across as your normal kind of Mom, living her Faith.
Sustenance for both body and Soul.
Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for allowing me to read this book.
