Yet (Study in Habakkuk) by Erica Boden

I recently moved across the country, away from my friends and family, and married my best friend — all around the same time. It's been an incredibly exciting season, something I'd been praying for, but also a genuinely difficult transition. My emotions were pulled in different directions more often than not, and I could feel my fire starting to get snuffed out a little. I wanted something to help pull me back into the Word.

This Bible study has been so incredibly helpful for me. I've recommended it to anyone I know who's in a transition, walking through change, or just wanting to get back into the Word again.

I'm actually excited to read my Bible in the mornings now — and I never would have chosen to pick up Habakkuk on my own. But here I am. I have a stronger relationship with God, a more patient and joyful relationship with my husband, and an overall sense of peace and centeredness I didn't have before. I can genuinely feel the difference in my days when I start this way versus when I don't.

It's not a long morning commitment — honestly, it doesn't feel like a commitment at all. It's a blessing. It helps me slow down, be more intentional, and stay grateful for my days and the people around me.

I loved the way that this study walked me through the book of Habakkuk in a way I’d never known before, gave me such a beautiful perspective and insight.

Not as in depth as I would have hoped for, every time it referenced a page it was incorrect and I had to go hunting through the whole book to find it, and some of the questions seemed redundant or were immediately answered in her next paragraph. Not my favorite devotional, however the design of the book is quite beautiful

I chose this study because I had recently retired. also knowing my daughter is just starting empty nest and my granddaughter had just graduated from high school. it was perfect timing for my retirement, our family experienced two major hard events. I am thinking of facilitating a small group to support others. GREAT STUDY! Wendy

Wonderful study, but it drove me crazy that internal page references were incorrect. For example, on page 187, it tells you to refer back to page 68– but that’s not the right page. Similar inconsistencies are found throughout the study. I’m sure it was a formatting issue but this should have been proofed before it went to print or revised in later print runs and it drove me crazy as someone who worked in publishing and was responsible for catching these kinds of errors.

As pictured and described. Great quality. Binding appears strong. Daughter looking forward to completing the study

Such a beautiful devotional! Very though provoking for this season of my life. Walks through the book of Habakkuk in a way I have never seen before!

I loved everything this devotional offered to me! It taught me so many things about myself.

I removed one star because any time it referenced former pages in the book, the page numbers were wrong and I had to search for what it was actually referring to.

The drawings within are absolutely gorgeous, also!

Can’t wait to study

I felt lead by the Lord to retrieve this study in a time where I was going through a lot of transition. During transition I went through this study and this impacted me in a powerful way. This study changed my perspective and made me look towards the Lord during a time of hardship. Of course this study is aesthetically pleasing and the artwork is beautiful but the content inside is golden.

I originally bought this devotional before I went to college and did about a week of it till I put it on the shelf and was swept up by my discipleship reading plan. This happening was truly a blessing from the Lord though. about 10 months later I found myself in a very dark and emotionally overwhelming place. I cracked open this devotional and it spoke into me like nothing else. This devo taught me so so much about the Lord and myself. A few months after starting it I broke up with my longterm boyfriend and Yet gave me the wisdom and encouragement I needed to see that clinging to God is exceptionally essential and that he is the only place that I am defined, find peace, and find strength. I recommend this devo to all my friends that are going through a transition or uncomfortable and painful change.

I’ve recently had a baby girl and I’ve always grown up believing in God but have strayed, and I really believed he used me becoming a mother to bring me back to him, to see his love and mercy and I’ve recently purchased this devotional and a bible from you guys and I feel like it’s just opening my eyes, the transition to motherhood is a big one and I’m so thankful to have godly tools/ resources for guidance! Jesus loves all of you and he is faithful!

This devotional is helping me go through a moment of anxiety and has helped me a lot to get through the period of waiting for Gods answer! I wish there was a little more space to write but if it’s more I do write it down in my journal! A great way to get closer to God in your moment of need! 🙏

Gorgeous in person!!

Thankful I chose to order this study. It’s a great companion piece to do with a friend or by yourself. The daily questions offer an intentional way to spend time with the Lord and remind us that transition is critical for growth.

Two years ago I gifted this to a young lady in my life who had graduated college and was figuring out where God’s next steps for her were. She said the study was well done, she loved that it wasn’t hard to finish, but the questions were thought provoking. Anyhow, she loved it so much that she ended up gifting one to my own daughter two weeks ago, when my daughter graduated high school. If that doesn’t affirm what a gift this study is, I’m not sure what would.

I bought this Bible study as I was walking through some major transitions in life in addition to getting ready to get married. This study was exactly what I didnt know I needed. I loved how it pulled me into scripture and made me sit with it. I loved how it pulled you into other parts of scripture outside Habakkuk to really paint the full picture. Whatever transition or hard you are walking through, allow this study to come along side you as you lean into Scripture and the arms of a loving God.

This devotional I bought as a set for a friend and myself. It was my first time taking a deep dive through Habakkuk, and I've been in love and encouraged by that book ever since. This devotional really helped me to rest in God's timing for the season of life I was in. I was engaged at the time, and it was one of the first times in our relationship where my husband hand taken the lead and I had to take a seat. And I'm so thankful for that season and how the Lord worked in my heart through this devotional to help prepare me for my marriage, and my prayer life from then on. Constantly being in a season of "preparation" it felt like, where as now, I'm living in the fruit of those prayers with the encouragement of Habakkuk written on my heart that had carried me through those long nights of seemingly unanswered prayers. It's an amazing devotional for those who are in a season of preparation, of watching and waiting doe the Lord, and those of whom are learning to be still and know that He is Lord, and He is working all things for our good. It was a life changing devotional for me and I will continue to gift this to other amazing women in my life as long as I can.

I was gifted this devotional after graduating high school. I appreciated reading through a book of the bible I hadn't really studied much and the commentary was great. I have now bought it for my friend graduating.

This honestly has come at such a perfect time. My daughter came home for the summer to prepare for her wedding. It is blessing her so much in this season!!

I began Yet as a personal study back in February and quickly knew that my small group (moms who will soon be empty nesters) needed to do this together. Erica Boden has a comforting and powerful voice. Love the ties to Habakkuk as well as personal reflection. My small group has loved doing this together, and I've gifted this beautiful study to friends also going thru major changes in life (whether it's recent college graduation, moving to a new city, or empty nesters). LOVE this study!!

So beautiful and packed with amazing information. Makes Bible study time easier and the aesthetic of it helps with keeping me interested and wanting to dive deeper. Definitely a must purchase 🫶🏼🙏🏼

This is my second devotional book from this site. The first study touched me deeply spiritually. This devotional book had some good insights but there were many typos and misprints that made it hard to follow. I skipped some questions trying to figure out the correct reference because it was mistyped. Some questions were also redundant and not as introspective to answer. Overall, I didn’t gain as much from this study as I hoped.

It is amazing how smoothing so little cost can help change in your life! I am enjoying this devotional!

Love this devotional. Truly helping me during my current life struggles.

Wow! I’m halfway through this devotional and I can say without doubt, it’s one of the best devotionals I’ve had. I grew up in the church and strayed away for many years, now I’m slowly coming back to church and more importantly, coming back to my time with God. I knew I wanted a devotional to help me get back into reading my Bible, but I honestly didn’t want to read something I previously studied. Insert this devotional and honestly, I still can’t spell Habakkuk without spell check, but more importantly, it’s been an in-depth study of how we can bring our worries, our anxious thoughts to God. He wants us to be closer to him, to know that he’ll never leave us (even when we complain to him). And it was so refreshing to have real stories intermingled with the readings for the day from the writer. If you’re looking for a fresh take on the Bible with a book that isn’t readily taught upon, this is the one to choose. If you’re in the in between seasons of transition, this is a great devotion to get into God’s word to see that we aren’t in this alone.

Being on a topic that most of us don't study very often, it was beautifully surprising to be convicted and encouraged the very first day of this devotional.
Really approachable, yet thought provoking!
