Thank you, thank you, thank you! You've been such a blessing to me and taught me to grow and search God out for myself.
Thanks so much for sharing the great women and men of God who make up LPM. I did Breaking Free with a group of women many years ago and it made such a difference in my spiritual journey and relationship with God, but I remember at that point how hard it was for us to get the books and videos to do on our own. I am sure that it is much easier because of how God has blessed your ministry now. I wish I lived in TX–so I could attend Bible study with Beth much more!
Thank you and here's to another 15!
Beth and everyone at LPM,
I so enjoyed spending my Sunday afternoon watching these videos and seeing how God has worked in your lives and your ministry.
Wow! God is awesome! I am thrilled by Him!
I thank you for following Him and for your devotion to serving His people.
May God continue to bless your service to His kingdom.
So good to see the faces and "meet" these people who are so mucha part of this ministry. Thank you all for your faithful service in this. May God continue to bless you as you serve Him in the years to come.
I second the 'Siesta Cruise'!!! (as long as *we* get the first opportunity to get tickets) Lol….ha! Anyways, what an awesome blessing you all are at LPM. It really does take a village, and God has placed each and every one of you exactly where you should be!! It is so nice to *meet* you guys and we're so very thankful for your ministry Beth – and all the amazing Siestas (and Curtis) behind the scenes who make it easier for us to see God's face, and hear His voice !!!!!!!! With love from Canada!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congratulations on 15 years of Living Proof Ministries!
I'm with Roxanne……How about a Siesta cruise to celebrate! 🙂
I love your family and staff. I remember calling back in December and talking to Kimberly. (not sure her last name) and she was just precious. I had a prayer request and couldn't talk about it to just anyone because I didn't have permission, but she was so kind and so attentive to what was on my heart. We talked for quite a while and she prayed the sweetest prayer. I'll never forget it. She told me to call her back one of these days when God works a mighty work. I know she'll remember and we'll be able to give God all glory and praise.
I thank God for each person He has placed at Living Proof and everyone who has helped you, Beth, through the years in one way or another.
May God continue to bless and prosper you in every way.
Love You!!!!
Valerie
PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM ALL BLESSINGS FLOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats! You are in my prayers!
Love in Sweet Jesus,
Susan
You all are such blessings in the lives of so many, including me! Thank you LPM for chasing after us in Jesus' name. I loved "meeting" you all in these videos and can't wait until the day when we dance at Jesus' feet in praise of Him together!
I was blessed beyond comprehension at LPL in Albuquerque this weekend, just another way you are bringing His Word to the many! Thank you for being bold enough to listen to what He wants. The lesson on "The Shocking Favor of God" this weekend felt as though it was created for me alone!
Be blessed, sisters!
I so enjoyed seeing your 5 part video on LPM! What a joy to see all that God has done through you and your ministry! I have to tell you – while viewing the last video (part 5) my 10 year old son came up to me and said – "who's that?" – I said Beth Moore. He said "WOW – she's a lot younger than I thought she was. How old is she anyway – I told him and he was in utter disbelief. He went to get his 12-year old sister and said look at Beth Moore – can you believe that she's 51? She looks like she's in her 30's! Thought you'd enjoy that!
May God continue to bless you and your ministry!
🙂

I so agree about the cruise!! Let's go!
Thanks for letting us in on the celebration! I am waiting for part 6 with the king Miesta…Mr. Keith Moore. I just know he'd have some funny memories. If he's too shy…please let him know that we siestas appreciate all the prayer and practical support he's given over the years. Our legacies are changed thanks to LPM.
Praise the Lord for all He has done and will do through LPM! And thank you, Beth, for your faithfulness to His call. You make me hungry to experience all that the Lord has for my life, and your example encourages me to never give up.
I'm praying for God's continued faithful guidance, as He leads you step by step.

Hi there,
Thank you for sharing all of this with us, it is was great to see and hear from all the people at Living Proof. That is what I love about you all, how you share your life with us and the joy and laughter amidst the everydayness and the just plain hardness of this life, just being so real with us.
You are the best!
Love, karen :):)
Happy Anniversary to y'all! It was a pure treat to watch the videos. What cute personalities The Village is made up of and fun stories to hear. Blessings for years to come!
LPM Staff – thank you for sharing your lives and hearts with us. Being in ministry for 15 years is an amazing thing to be part of and evidence of God's faithfulness.
Yesterday as we honored our St. Pastor's 20th year in our church, a couple of our pastors said a few words about him. My husband was one of them. We are relatively new to the ministry (2 years) and here's a tidbit of what he shared:
"The word I think of I when I think of (our pastor) is steadfast. You can't be in ministry this long if you aren't steadfast. I've been a Marine Officer and Deputy Sheriff and doing ministry is a far more difficult task than either of those. Part of the reason is that you don't know where the attack is coming from. It can be on your family, from the outside or from within your congregation."
Surely all of you know this to be true. I can only imagine the attacks you've been the target of and the dependence on God to get through them.
Steadfast is a fitting word for your ministry. May God continue to bless you and increase your faith and ministry.
The Journey Continues ~
The LORD sure knows what HE is doing when He brings together = leadership with a core of faithful,loving,giving,hilarious,
goofy,GOD fearing women and GOD fearing men in Curtis & Travis!!
You are the best caserole I have ever eaten from!!!
With "Heaven Bound" Blessings,
Kim Safina
I appreciated you adding this blog again from May 5th!! I commented back then too 11:14 AM
Thank you, Lord Jesus, for this brief look at what You are doing in this ministry and how You brought it into being. I thank You that these women REALLY DO care! Thank You for what You are doing in me and fellow sisters in faith through Beth & her support village!
I can't say it enough. You are a blessing to the body of Christ and I thank God for you. Look at what Jesus has done for you Beth Moore! A beautiful family and a strong ministry speading the Good News! Congratulations!

Thank all of you at LPM. I am one more changed life because of your combined love for our Lord and Savior. You all do amazing work for God and we Siestas are blessed for it. Love to you all and may God bless you with many more years of live-changing events and help in reaching just one more.
You Moore women are just the cat's pajamas!! Thank you for sharing your lives with us and making us all a part of your family. I love each of you for sharing yourselves so openly and for always putting Jesus first. You are shinning examples of Godly women to us all.
I pray that our Lord holds LPM in His holy hands and carries it forward to bless all who encounter it.
My love to you all,
Tina
Thanking God for LPM and its ministry over the last 15 years. I have only been aware of LPM over the last several – but feel so blessed by God for all that you provide to the body of Christ. Praying blessing on you all this morning.
And thank you for truly loving us Siestas — your words were like a soothing balm as I got ready for work this morning.
And finally — THANK YOU FOR BRINGING laughter… I am telling you the rest of the world just has not lived until they have gotten the uncontrollable funnies during a wedding, funeral or church service… I have tested all the muscles in my abdomen over the years while sitting in a church pew trying to keep it together —
Bless you!

Happy 15 Years!! This was so FUN to watch and see behind the scenes and "meet" everyone who makes it all happen! I'm so grateful and thankful and glad for LPM.
I took my first Beth Moore bible study in Jan 2000 at my home church in Flagstaff, AZ. It was the first A Woman's Heart. My husband and I were in college and recently married at the time. Then my husband graduated college and got a job in Louisiana. We got plugged into a church there and took Breaking Free, The Beloved Disciple and Living Beyond Yourself there. A new promotion brought us to Houston and at my church there, I had the pleasure of taking Daniel, the second Woman's Heart, Anointed/Transformed/Redeemed, and Esther. We have recently moved to West Lafayette, IN and I don't know exactly what God has in store for me here, but I guarantee that I'll be in the Word while I'm doing it! I'm taking Me, Myself and Lies right now online.
I guess I said all that to say that this ministry has been apart of my life in some way for almost my entire adult life and everywhere I've lived.
I love you! God bless!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!
Praise God for LPM……What a treat to see each of you and have a face to go with the voice. You all serve so wonderfully and graciously!! I know Beth loves each of you and could not do what she does without you!! We love you because you bring us God through her teachings. I am so in love with Him since I started her studies. I can hardly wait to start the next one when I finish one.
Blessings to you all,

Congrats on your 15 year anniversary! It was wonderful to meet the women behind the scenes. God has truly used your ministry!
Thank you so much for this!! It was a joy to watch and hear the testamonies of what our Great God has done!!!
Pray for our family as we relocate to Atlanta, Ga….we are going home to the south and we are thrilled! This is a quick move for us as school starts earlier there than here. We are blessed and know now more than ever that Nothing is impossible with God!
Thanks for your ministry and your prayers!

Dearest Mama Beth,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share with this girl who needs to know how this ministry came to be!! The videos gave me answers to many questions I had and answered those I didn't know to ask! I praise Jesus Christ for what He has done through you in my life. I wandered into a little Christian book store 11 years ago when God started my love affair with His Word through the purchase of the first Bible study you wrote, "A Woman's Heart: God's Dwelling Place." You took passages in the Old Testament on the ancient tabernacle that I always had skipped over and made them come to life! Your delight over God's Word has been absolutely contagious. You led me to the Living Water that I was so parched for. I am forever grateful.
I have been a student ever since and have done all but two of your studies. You have been the guide for countless women crying out to know our Jesus intimately. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your sold out life and for making Jesus famous to us. My changed life is living proof of the validity of Living Proof Ministries and the resurrection power of Jesus Christ in one woman's life–mine. I can't wait to see you in Memphis, Lord willing, in October!
I love you dearly,
Shawn
What a joy to celebrate the LORD's faithfulness with you!!!
I consider all of you my "extended family". It has been such a blessing to view these video clips, and I have just laughed and smiled with you over the shared memories. Thank you for serving us in Christ Jesus! You are a blessing beyond measure! Happy Anniversary!
I celebrate the work of the Lord with you! Well done guys! You are so faithful in your obedience and yet so quick to give Jesus the glory. Good job not forgetting His redemptive work in the midst of this. It would be so tempting.
You are women of Proverbs 31 and He has trusted you with much! I know He is saying Well Done Ladies. I can feel it in my bones as I write this. He celebrates with you and looks ahead to the hurdles in your path. Don't forget this standing stone.
Love you all,
Jina
Here goes Beth:
Beth, you have shared with me and others,
How to love and to love well.
I have learned much from listening to you,
And in my heart these lessons will dwell.
I wish I had more Joys in my life,
It seems my Testy friends outnumber them.
I've seen God perform miracles in lives of my Foes,
And to find Fars, I must "get out on a limb."
If I can strive to live in the reality,
That God's perfect love is in me.
I know I can love anyone,
And, in the process, become free!
I gained insight about myself from your questions,
That being, I try alone to be strong.
God desires to be strong for me,
Believing I can conquer strongholds by myself is wrong.
I must allow God to love me perfectly,
This allows Him to accomplish His will in my life.
His love cannot be hampered,
By my anxiety, insecurity, and strife.
Nothing can and will separate me,
From God's perfect love.
For He sacrificed Christ for this very reason,
And I praise Him above.
God has used YOU to minister to me,
At this very season of my life.
I want to love well from this day forward.
And strive to be a better mom, sister, friend, and wife.
I love you Beth,
Eva
Beth, thank you for sharing inside LPM with the siestas. It made me feel right at home; there are lots of hard working women on your staff who love the Lord, just like me. It's an amazing journey Beth and thank you for letting go of everything to follow God. I send my love to you all.
Congratulations on 15 years! It was great to see "the village". I love you all and I praise God for what he is doing through your ministry.
Much love and much prayer!
It was such a blessing to meet everyone at Living Proof Ministries! I am so thankful to God for His amazing ministry through you all and how much He has grown me and chosen to do that primarily through LPM. Thank you and God bless you!!!
Love you all lots!
Dee
Congratulations LPM! I agree with Amanda: I'm proud of you Beth! You have brought God an unfathomable amount of glory!! Thank you for serving and loving us, and for your incredible obedience. How much I could learn from you!! And HAVE learned! Thank you for teaching me so much about Him and His Word, bringing it to life for me over and over again, and helping to ignite a passion in my soul for my Gracious Redeemer and His Holy "Scripts"! I love you. I can't wait to come hear you speak in Fargo, ND in August. Love, Katie Moon P.s. A small group of us are doing "To Live is Christ" this summer on Monday nights. We are almost half done. This is one of my most favorite studies I've ever done with you. I have loved every journey, but this one has been especially special. Thank you!!
It is currently 1:39 am here in ATL and I have finished the 5 part series.
I love you all too!!!
Thank you for all that you do. You challenge me every time I hear your heart for us and the body of Christ.
Thank You to LPM and the staff for serving us for 15 years! Praying for so many more to come! The life saving from the enemy that happens with your all's humble giving and the lives changed, mine included…..tears. Teaching me not only the scriptures but also the daily living involved to win the victory over the enemy, oh, I can't put into words what that means to me.
I happened across these too a week ago. I so loved hearing thier stories and 'meeting' them all!
so personal, thanks

I have thoroughly enjoyed watching the 15th Anniversary videos! Thanks so much for sharing this with us! I just joined this blog (I don't really know what I am doing!). I am so grateful to be a part of such a neat group of people! I look forward to learning how blogs work!!
As I read the comments by all the sisters expressing their appreciation to Beth and LPM, tears just well up and flow down…My life has been changed and enriched since the day I came across the book Jesus the One and Only and the Holy Spirit led me to the Beth moore and LPM website. How I envy you all in the USA to have such an easy access to all the resources. My dream is to own the Inheritance DVD and know it will come true. Praise the Lord even tho I live in Penang,Malaysia(I am sure a lot doesnt know where it is) I have a library of all Beth Moore books and dvds except a few like Loving Well, Wising Up…etc These are my most treasured possession besides my Bible.
So thank you Beth from the bottom of my heart for passing on to me the passion for God's word through your bible studies.
Love you all at LPM

This was just the biggest blessing to me today! Thank you for filming this, for introducing us to your staff. What a wonderful work of the Lord to inspire this whole ministry through his work in Beth…Living proof indeed!! I am grateful for your precious staff, for your faithfulness to His word and for all that you've done to serve me with truth and love. Thank you. You've just made my day 🙂
That was fun and I just love your girls at living proof and wish I could just squeeze their necks you have some amazing workers! 🙂 So I called and unloaded on Kimberly today I've never done that before unloaded to a stranger but I thought I was going to have a nervous breakdown I had to have a MRI on my head today and I was a LITTLE freaked out. She was so sweet and prayed the sweetest prayer over me I loved it when she said I ask you God to wrap her up with a blanket of peace that even she can not get out of ! You need to give her a raise! She really helped me and I just loved her!

Beth, and all you precious ladies at Living Proof Ministries, Congratulations and May God continue to shower you with His abundant blessings.
Thank you for sharing the videos with us ….wow what a treat! Thank you for being LIVING PROOF and for sharing with all of us out here in Bible Study land and blogger world. You all are a hugh blessings and I thank God so much for you.
It was a treat to meet you all on video, and I am hoping to get a chance to meet you in person in January when all of us memorizing scripture come together. This program means more to me than I ever imagine. Thank you Beth, for inviting us on the exciting journey of hiding God's word in our hearts.
Love you and here's to following Jesus all the way home.

I don't know how else to share this with you but because I have laughed so hard with you all, I want to share this link with you! It is too funny!

Thank you for sharing with us! What a blessing to be a part of your ministry for so many years.
I did (and co-led) my first study of Beth's in 2006 right after my husband and I closed our business. The study was "Living Beyond Yourself" and it completely changed my life! I am not exagerating to say that I sometimes spent several hours each week working on my homewok – trying to get the most out of it by putting more of myself into it and it so worked! My life and Bible study habits were forever changed and I can't ever thank you enough for your obedience to the call God has placed upon your life!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
By the way… Beth, your hair in the videos looks fantastic! Would you ever mind sharing with us here on the blog which styling products you use to maintain such "freshness" in your hair throughout the day? It just looks like it held up so well throughout all of those videos 🙂
Blessings to you always!
Diana
thank you for taking the time to introduce us to your staff!! Great job!
Thank you God
Thank you LPM
Thank you Beth
Thank you Lord for bestowing more blessings than we even know how to pray for!
Glory to the Beautiful and Wonderful, Strong and Powerful Name of Jesus Christ, Lord of Lords and King of Kings

Beth and team,
Thank you so much for posting these video clips. I so enjoyed "meeting" everyone and was so encouraged by your closing words.
My first study with Beth was "A Woman's Heart" about 13 years ago. I was a fairly new Christian who didn't really know how to dive into God's Word. My husband and I had just moved to a new town, started attending a new church and was invited by the pastor's wife to join her Saturday morning bible study. I was reluctant to attend and almost stayed home, but after much conviction and a little courage, I went.
After watching the first video I was hooked. The Word of God came to life for me in a whole new, exciting way. God completely grabbed a hold of my heart through your study and I've been forever changed.
Thank you for allowing God to use you, for being authentic, faithful and obedient, so that we might fall in love with the Father more every day.
I don't have the words to tell you how much your ministry means to me.
With love and praise to God,

THANK YOU for doing this for us! I have told many people that when I "grow up", I want to work at Living Proof Ministries. I am now 62 and still growing in the Lord and loving it!!!! The peek into your life at Living Proof has not dimmed my desire to join you. However, I know I am serving Him where I am, joyfully and thankfully. I would not be at this point in my spiritual life had it not been for the Beth Moore Bible studies. My first one was "Living Beyond Yourself" in Sept. 2005. Eleven studies later, I am on fire for my next study. I thank God daily for you, Beth, and for all of the precious people at LPM! May He continue to annoint you and pour His abundant blessings upon you!

So, do you have any job openings?? Looks to me like each one of you have a "dream job!" God is awesome and THANKS for obeying Him! My life and my faith is soooo much the way it is today because of your faithfulness to write studies!!
Beth,
Many many times I have praised God for you letting Him work through you. You have taken me to God and I so thank you. It is because I care so much for you and your staff that I will now say….NO more trips in the car without your seatbelts on!!
Marsha
Sorry so late in posting; I wanted to watch all the videos in one sitting and finally today was the day.
Thank you so much for your ministry and the amazing people behind the scenes.
Praise God from whom all blessings flow!
I also wanted to share my favorite memory of LPM.
I attended your conference in Buffalo, NY years ago with a group of other women. We were staying in a hotel downtown as we were not from there and wanted to be close to the conference.
After Friday night, we walked to get something to eat as we were starving. 🙂
After dinner, we were walking back to the hotel and some men in a car slowed down and began to harrass us ridiculously. They were saying rude and vulgar comments.
I tried to just be blunt and say Hey, were are married with kids. You're barking up the wrong tree.
But they just kept at it and became more threatening until one of the guys started getting out of the car asking me hey what do you have in the bag?
My bag, I thought…oh yes my bag. I had been so nervous but then I felt a rush of excitement as I could not get the books out fast enough…I pulled them out and said Bible Studies…books I had just bought of yours. And my bible.
I will never till this day ever ever forget the look on that guys face…he was horrified and jumped back in the car and said something which I won't repeat and they drove off and we were not to be bothered again.
And to this day, I tell that story to my girls how Jesus really does save…LOL.
Thank you for all you do.
Love and Blessings in Christ,
Michelle in Vermont
