Esther Poll

Hi Siestas! Several people have suggested that we do Esther for our Siesta Summer Bible Study. I’ve added a poll to our sidebar to see how many of you have already taken it. Would you mind taking a second to give us your answer? The poll will expire in a few days.

Also, I’m excited to tell you that our LPM web site is getting a much needed makeover very soon. My hero, Curtis Jones, is working on that project. (Picture me looking very relieved.) And we have changes in the works for our blog, too. Yeah! Will you pray for us as we go through this process? I will speak for myself and say that I need God to make me much smarter than I am when it comes to all of this. Thanks, sisters! We want to serve you with excellence!

    We are in week 8 of our Esther study and last week we did wonder about the “G – P” comment. Thanks for clarifying. We have 25 ladies doing the study and it is awesome and such a blessing.

    We finished Esther a couple of weeks ago and loved it so much! We had an “Esther” banquet and then went on to watch “One Night With the King” which is not even close to the REAL story!(the Veggie Tale version is actually closer). But it was fun comparing the movie with the Scripture. Our theme song for the study was “Something Beautiful.” We loved the study and we love Beth. See you in Albuquerque Beth!

    I answered the poll on the sidebar and was sad that I didn’t get to say more–so here I go. Thank you Beth, for pouring over this book of the Bible. Thanks for bringing so many rich truths of the character of God to bare on my life, for bringing your gift of application to us–it was truly rich. I am still working thru all of the “reversals” just to make sure my heart gets it too. Very rich study!

    I have just finished the Esther study and as always I was so blessed to be in God’s Word. I enjoy doing your studies more than once so it would be fun to do it as a group. I also truely enjoyed your leading in another’s teaching last summer. I have been so misled in the past that I fear getting misled on false teaching. Experiencing other teachers that I know are solid if your recommend them is another adventure I welcome.

    We just finished Esther with a Bible study group at church… complete with a re-creation of the story, in a skit, during the “wrap party.” However, I am starting it again in two weeks with my small group. Yes, it’s SO good that I’m doing the same study twice.

    BTW… the skit was hysterical! ๐Ÿ™‚

    Pam Eubank says:

    Our church just finished five classes of Esther and we all agreed this is one of the best Bible studies we have ever done. It might be because it’s about a woman or maybe because so many of us had experienced times in our lives where God seemed silent. Anyway, it is definitely a study that could be done again.

    We have just finished Easter. What a blessing. It would be OK to do it again, but would like to do something new. How would you do the Vidio? They were sooooo great> Thank you, no one but you could glean so much from Easter.

    I just finished the Esther study with a group of 5 young ladies from my church (age ranging from 20-29) at my house. It was such a great study and time of fellowship. We had breakfast together and then talked “Esther”gen. ๐Ÿ™‚

    Praying Paula says:

    Finishing the last week in Esther. This study has touched in our main vein of our country right as we speak. This study has been earth shaking to me and the others that have been in the Esther Bible Study. We have cried and prayed through this study with one another. I’m sad that it’s ending but excited about how God has moved once again through the studies to move us out into the world to help other women find peace in Him and themselves.

    IT’S TOUGH BEING A WOMAN!

    God Bless you Beth and the staff for your dedication to the Lord. Our prayers are with each of you.

    I’m dying to do Esther, but didn’t want to go it alone. My Bible study group is doing a Priscilla Shirer study for the spring, so I’d love to do Esther for the summer!!!!

    I’d love to do Esther! Although my home computer has some kind of nasty worm and I don’t know if it can be fixed. Hopefully it can because we can’t afford to buy a new one right now. I’ve been checking my e-mail at work, but I really need my home computer. Please pray that either it can be fixed or we’ll be able to afford a new one somehow. Thanks!

    We are studying this now. We have 40 women signed up. So many of them are encouraging me with how timely and special this course is to them. I think this would be a great idea. This course is really ministering to women of all ages.

    Just wondering if you will announce your choice for the summer study soon. I would love to have my Bible study group doing the same thing that the Fiesta group is doing if it works out. Last year I found out about NOG too late so did it on my own, it was powerful.

    just finished week 6 of Esther study and I am absolutely LOVING it…recommending it to every woman i know who has not yet been through it! If it were done as the siesta summer study, i think i might just have to get a fresh workbook and go through it all over again!

    We finally found a local church doing Beth Moore Bible Studies. This one offered Esther and we jumped up to be a part of it.
    Sadly we are nearing the end of this study.

    There are many women in our small study group who think this study is one of Miss Beth’s better studies. I happen to feel that the study was too “girly” and there was an awful lot of personal comments. At times it was a bit distracting. However, Esther is my mom’s favorite book and we both have learned much from the study

    Dear Princess Beth,
    We have two sessions left as I write this and it has helped each one of us in uniquely different ways, but ultimately to encourage us on following the destiny our Great God has ordained for us. Thank you so much for writing this study and obeying our
    King!

    I haven’t done the Esther study–but would LOVE to! I’ve started working full time this year, so my beloved Tuesday morning Bible study has been sorely missed. I’m working through “Stepping Up” on my own, but so miss the interaction with other “growers”. Last summer’s study was great. . . I’m looking forward to whatever you choose.

    How great would it be to do Esther for the Summer Siesta Session, and how much of a HUGE blessing would it be, if the video were segments were posted on the blog so that the only cost would be the Study Guide. I know it would help me GREATLY and Im sure it would benefit many more..Just a thought!

    I am leading a group of women through the Esther study,we would like to request a disclaimer/ warning for the activity in the margin on page 108 as some of our greatest fears have indeed become reality (just kidding about the disclaimer thing) but God has demonstrated his sufficiency in even in the midst of our worst nightmares realized. The fear I listed was losing a loved one….

    Last week my 21 day old niece named Hope passed away and I can not tell you how much this study over the book of Esther has prepared my heart for this season of suffering. THANK YOU SO MUCH for this study and the way it has ministered to my heart!!

    for more details on my niece and this present journey my family is on and God’s providence throughout the journey please go to http://diaryofayouthpastorswife.blogspot.com/
