Hi ladies! Mom just sent me the commissioning statement to post on the blog. She also wanted me to tell you that you’re the teachers pets. We love you! -Amanda
My Dear Sister
If Christ is Your Savior
You are the dwelling place
Of His own Spirit
You have it IN YOU
to be secure.
Every day of your life
You have a choice to make
You can live in your old defeat
Or you can turn from your unbelief
And choose life
Make up your mind
To put off the old you
And put on the new you.
Never, ever, ever forget
That the Lord is your security.
He will keep your foot
From being caught in a trap.
He will take care of you
To your very last breath.
Now, leave this place
And go out into the world
And act like a person
Who knows she’s dearly loved.
You were born to be exceptional.
So, Girlfriend, go forth
And walk worthy of your calling.
You are clothed in strength and dignity!
Now unto Him
Who can keep you from falling
Be glory and majesty
Power and authority
Through Jesus Christ our Lord
Now and forever more
Amen.
So Long, Insecurity!
Beth,
I tried to leave this comment late Sunday night, but the blog was acting up! I could hardly wait to share.
My mom, sis, several friends and I were at FBCW on Saturday. So, So, good!
What was unbelievable to me was how Sat. evening and Sunday morning, the enemy was bringing to my mind all manner of old insecurities that I hadn’t thought about in years! As I was getting ready for church Sun. morning, I wondered if this was happening to anybody else. I remember thinking, I’m going to ask my sister if this is happening to her and then immediately my mind went to, “you can’t do that, what if she’s not, you’ll look like such an idiot.” Un-stinking-believable!!!!
My very next thought was, “oh yes I am going to ask her and everybody else I know who went to this event! This is one way we can, together, overcome this!”
After church, all the ladies I attended the event with were together at a bridal shower and you can guess the main topic of our conversation! Every single one had experienced what I had and it was sooooo freeing that we could stand together and shout NO, we’re not going to think like that anymore! As the afternoon went on we began adding the tagline, “…because I’m secure.” to everything we said.
I’m eating that dessert because I’m secure!
I raised my hands in praise at church because I’m secure!
I don’t care what people think because I’m secure!
Thank you for sharing your journey with us. What a difference we’re going to make in the lives of those around us because we are secure in Christ Jesus!
Love you dearly my sweet friend!!!
First, let me say that I absolutely LOVED the simulcast on Saturday. After reading the book and discussing it with several dear friends (now THAT takes some security … or at least solid attempts!), it was great to hear from our Siesta Mama and kind of “wrap it all up.”
I’m not usually very good at telling other people what I learned from a message or a conference, but when my husband asked me how it was, stuff just started spilling out of me. The need to forgive, I am dearly loved, I need to think and act secure and then I’ll start feeling secure.
That night, we were laying in bed, and my sweet husband said, “I just want you to know that I love you … even with all your insecurity … even if you never get it figured out.” Now … I do realize that he was trying to be extremely supportive and loving and encouraging. But at that moment, I had had enough (of insecurity … not of him). I looked back at him, and said, “Thank you. I know you’re trying to be nice. But being insecure is just not good enough for me! It affects everything about me … my relationships (even with you!), things I do, things I don’t do. I’m sick and tired of being scared and afraid and feeling like bats are flying around in my stomach when I try to do something I’m not comfortable with and making an idiot out of myself. I’m done with this. And the best part is is that I don’t have to do this alone. The power of the Holy Spirit in me is going to beat this.” And this is where my husband says it got good … I started talking (out loud!) to God and Satan, “And Satan, you can just stuff it. I’m done feeling terrible about myself. My God is bigger than you and my God is better than you, and my God wants better things for me. And if you can’t deal with that, then BRING IT!” At this point, my husband was literally rolling with laughter … he knew I was serious, but something about the passion in me and the challenge to Satan (oh no, what have I done?!) just got him tickled. But it’s true, insecurity HAS been a bad friend to me. And it’s a friend that I’m “breaking up” with!
Thank you – thank you for posting that. So many of us were crying while repeating those words that we needed a refresher on the commitment. I forwarded it to our whole host site team and bible study leaders.

What a terrific event. I was able, for the first time, to share an event with my mom! God also brought an old friend to the church as well. I had a blessed day with family and friends praising God and soaking up the message God had Beth bring to us. Thank you, Beth, for doing God’s work. You have helped me through so much in my life and it is a joy to share your teaching of God’s word with others. May God continue to bless you and your family. 🙂
AMEN!!!!!
Thank you so much for posting this prayer that we did together Saturday. The thought of 300,000 women saying that to each other at the same time moved my spirit so much. Wonderful simulcast!
I about cried through the entire commissioning statement on Saturday. Thank your Mom for me for following through on what God placed on her heart.
Beth,
Thank you for being an instrument of the Lord!!!!
I experienced my first simulcast today & can say this won’t be my last. I’m still absorbing everything you shared!! I have enjoyed 2 previous bible studies authored by you (Breaking Free & the Patriarchs) & have walked away with a closer relationship to my Savior. And want to take this opportunity to thank you for sharing all your knowledge with me.

Thank you Beth and girls for your obedience to the Lord. I was unable to attend a simulcast and your encouraging words were a hug I needed today. I feel such a testing the past few weeks but know that He wants my obedience and from this cause I am HIS I will be FREE!!! Thanks again for being who God created you to be!!
Beth,
Thank you so much for your Warmth, Personality, and bringing a message that not only hit home for me, but made so much sense. I was of course one of the “gushers” you mentioned but bit my lip several times as I feared that once I started, I would not be able to stop. I have been battling insecurity,and bondage from depression, as well as having the enemy use that to attack me! I will not allow myself to be a slave to bondage any longer. Thanks to God leading me to the simulcast and to think I almost didn’t show up Saturday Morning. I was one of the many women that particpated from Mt. Pleasant, SC. I had not read your book before the simulcast, but went out and bought a copy Saturday evening afterwards. While reading it, I get it! Not only that, the message that was given at Church on Sunday was exactly what I needed as well and made even more sense. I hope I can be a wonderful example of what a Secure Woman is to not only my daughter, but to my almost 17 year old neice who is battling her own demons with insecurity, abuse, bondage, and addiction.
Thank you for being such a willing, honest, and down to earth veseel for God to use you to reach thousands of women who like your slide, would never dare to own up to or face their insecurities.
I am so glad I attended the simulcast at my church. When I first heard of it, I kept feeling a sense of urgency to sign up for it, so I did. I didn’t bother to check if my sister was going, if my friends were going – I just knew I had to sign up. On Saturday, I realized that I was there by myself, all alone. For a second I thought, “What did I do? Why am I here by myself?”
Almost immediately I felt God speaking to me, telling me I was there to focus on Him, no one else, but Him. Words cannot explain what I felt that Saturday, but I had never, ever felt God’s presence so strong before. The message was so profound, so personal – I felt as if it was intended just for me. The emphasis to learn scripture was magnified and the reminder that I am a new creation in Christ was amplified. It starts in the mind and if I act in obedience I will be completely transformed. I am determind to do it for my daughter and future daughters-in-law and grandaughters. Thank you Beth! I get it and with God’s help, I will do it!!!!!
Beth and all that made Saturday possible- Thank you from the bottom of my heart. It was a life changing experience. To hear all the beautiufl voices singing praises together under one roof, to hear Beth’s God inspired leadership to feel God’s love transforming my life and all lives together. I hope I can step up and beleive what I know- I am his and he wants me to be SECURE!
Blessing and love to you all!
Beth,
I just want to say that the simulcast was phenomenal. When I first heard of it, I felt a sense of urgency to attend. I signed up without asking my sister or my friends if they were planning to attend. On Saturday morning, I realized that I was there by myself. For a micron of a second, I wondered what I was doing there by myself, should I be there at all. Everyone around me was surrounded by their friends, but I was all alone. Immediately, I felt God telling me that I was there to focus on Him, just Him. I took it all in, words cannot explain what I felt that Saturday. I have never, ever felt God so close to me as I felt Him on Saturday. He showed me that I was taught to be His new creation, I must shine for Him as such. It all starts in my mind so I must keep His word in my thoughts and my heart at all times so that I can live it. I am going to do this for my daughter, for my future daughters-in-law, my future granddaughters and all the women that will be in my life. I get it Beth, and with every fiber of my being and with God’s help I’m going to doing it! Thank you sister.
Love,

It was nice to read that bit. I read this morning from Ps. 132, “For the Lord has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His seat. ‘This is my resting-place for all time; her I will dwell, for I desire it.'” I have to be honest, I’m not one of those Christians who really understands God or says the right kinds of things. I can believe in my head that he dwells in me, but almost all I ever notice is my own darkness and failure. It overwhelms me sometimes, and I have a really hard time getting my mind around the idea of God desiring me. I don’t know if I’m overspiritualizing this or not, but it was just interesting to be struck by that passage this morning and to then read this tonight. Thank you.
I took my mother to the simulcast. This was a HUGE step for me because I have been forgiving her daily for the decades of hurt. Through the first part of worship and the message she kept whacking me and saying, “I told you so. I told you you should listen to me. Stop dancing it’s embarrassing. be quiet no one wants to hear your amens. Be a good girl and admit that I was right in treating you the way I did because breaking you down made you strong.”
Then you said “no one can force you to follow your calling, not even God” and she burst into tears and said “Oh God!! Thats ME!! I was trying to force you!” and proceeded to get hit with God bricks for the next 4 hours. She asked me for forgiveness for her being abusive and a bad role model. Thank you for helping me show her Gods love and forgiveness. and Thank you for helping me journey through to the secure person I know i can be. (BTW I read the book 6 times in the past 2 months because it is just so powerful)
Beth,
Thank you so much for the So Long Insecurity Simulcast. I would like to thank you for a few things you said and ask you a question. Thank you for saying that God WOULD speak a word to each one of us. I guess I never dared guess that He WOULD speak to me. He DID!!! Thank you for linking insecuriy with forgiveness. This is somehting I needed to hear. I have a broken relationship with my sister and we have not talked for about 7 months. I know I need to forgive her although she feels she did nothing wrong. She has all my life made me feel insecure and inadequate. I have not wanted to forgive her becuase I felt like my doing so it would betray myself and the values I hold dear. I have been “chewing” on what you have said about all this and I want to forgive her now but I wonder…Why does forgiving her feel like I am selling out? Like my feelings, the things I have stood up for that she has done wrong, and myself as a whole are cheap. I have not been able to move past this. I want to so badly as it is eating me alive but I can’t see past this one thing. I plan to buy your book and search deeper for this answer. Thank you so much for the powerful words you speak into womens lives all over the world!

I have to tell you…this was such a special moment on Saturday! I was sitting on the end of an odd number of ladies when Beth asked us to partner up, so of course people I know wanted me to just join in with them, which I probably would have normally done. However, the entire time we’d been sitting in our own little world in the balcony, watching from above, there had also been a group of what seemed to be pretty young girls and maybe one or two not so young women with them. They were talking loud enough for us to be a tad bit distracted, but not loud enough to actually be able to hear what they were saying. We all have education and religion in our background, so our row kept giving them the mother eye (not quite the stink eye, as we were in church, ya know), but we church ladies really wanted them to at least lower their voices a bit. After a while, we all kinda gave up and began to pray that God would just clog our ears from them so we could hear Beth more clearly…so when the time came for us to partner up…my heart felt moved to cross the aisle where I noticed their end girl was being asked to huddle with two others, as well. She and I caught each other’s eyes and quietly just kinda held our hands out to each other as Beth was beginning to give us instructions as to how we were going to do this thang…k, so as soon as I looked my new little friend in the eye and started to speak the words Beth gave us, I wanted to simply fall down on my knees, go prostrate to our Lord and in tears, just melt…she had limited English, very broken…joyfully, she struggled at each word you had us say, holding my hand so tightly, looking me intently in the eyes…at the end, we both hugged and cried at the thought of what had just transpired. As I turned back to my group, they immediately without my having to explain, realized…that sweet, precious little group of women had been brought up to the balcony in order to be able to translate the words Beth spoke that day! It was incredibly humbling to our little group! Beth, God Spoke…thanks for showing up!
I was there in Enterprise, AL Had a wonderful time with many sisters in Christ. Bought the book (since I hadn’t read it yet) and am so much enjoying it
Beth, I have been a fan of yours for several years. I have read your books, including So Long, Insecurity, and watched you on television at my every change. However, I was unprepared for the great impact you would have on my life and my sisters in Christ who joined me at the simulcast on Saturday in Fort Mill, SC. I was one of those women who was insecure to come to an Insecurity simulcast!!You made me realize how deeply loved by God I am and that it is time I rise above for my sisters in Christ, my nieces, and all the females in my life! I thank God for you and the opportunity to share a Saturday with you!
In Christ’s Glory,
Crystal Dickson
Beth, I wanted to thank you for sharing your heart and passion this past weekend. I am so grateful for the chance to hear it. I feel like I don’t adequately have the words to thank you for allowing God to use you so powerfully to stir up a new desire in me for His Word and for living out the truth that I am loved immeasurably by our Father. I wish that I could hear you speak every day to continue to stir up that passion in my heart to know His love and to help other women know that too. However, I need to trust that if I am open to Him, He’ll use others and His Word to do that every day. I am so excited for the work that He is doing in you and that is being done in the many women who heard His Words this weekend. Thank you from the very bottom of my heart!
THANK YOU so much for posting this! I was there on Saturday and as I held my friend’s hand and repeated these words I cried and cried. I was hoping to somehow find them again so I can write them in my Bible along with so many other things Beth and other teachers have inspired me to write and remember! And God led me here!
WHat a blessing Saturday was! As I enter a new (And extremely scary) phase of my life, I needed this mission statement. In a nutshell- My younger son graduates from college next week as my 19 year old baby girl moves to Kansas and leaves me and hubby an empty nest. In June, said hubby retires from over 20 years in the Air Force and we move from South Carolina to ?(don’t know where yet- no job lined up). THEN in July my younger son gets married and later in July my oldest son and his wife bless us with our first grandchild. I am scared to death. But I know God will be with me every step of the way as I heard Mandeesa sing it to me just this morning! Thank you for letting God use you to minister to 300,000 women including little ol me!
Hi Beth,
Thanks for such a wonderful event Saturday! Our church was one of the hosts sites and we had over 400 women there. Double what came last August when we hosted your last simulcast! God is soooo good! Your book has really helped me a lot, along with God’s word. I am in the process of a marital separation. My husband has chosen someone else to be with, but even with that I am not losing my security in who God has created me to be. Love you all at LPM and thank you dearly for serving God the way you all do! Travis too!
God Bless You All
Thanks for posting the Commissioning Statement.
I wish I could find the girl I said it with. I think her name was Melissa and we were in the Chapel where the overflow seating was. I think she was with a group and when she saw I was alone she came over. I was too shy to maybe get her info at the time but would like to connect with her.
Beth, thanks so much for your book and simulcast. This is the first of yours I have read and I thoroughly enjoyed it. What a passion I have in my heart now to be secure and a desire to surround myself with secure women. The commisioning statement spoken over our sisters was very moving, admittedly a little AWKWARD, but moving none the less. I told my “sister in prayer” that I felt as if I should say “I do”, as I haven’t given such an emotional moving charge since saying my wedding vows to my husband. Your love for God is remarkable and you have moved me in every way to love Him with all of my soul and willingly and openly share that love with others. My security in His love for me is more than enough to live a life worth living! Thank you again for your message, passion, encouragement and love for God. He has been glorified!
I attended the Simulcast and am on FIRE!!! I was already “sold out” for Jesus, but now I am RUINED!!!! I am leading Breaking Free right now and we are in week 6. Every woman in our group is battling physical abuse, sexual abuse, child victimization and/or rape (we have one breaking free of lesbianism on top of it all). They are all so close to freedom, the enemy is pounding them hard. Please pray for my sisters. Tomorrow we are coming together and I have bought each woman a beautiful tiara. I am crowning them literally with the truth that they are PRINCESSES!!!! Please pray they will recieve the Truth ON their head and it will sink IN their head! Thank you!
Dear Beth,
I just wanted to share my story and how I stumbled upon this simulcast last Sat. Firstly my friend told be about it on Friday and she lives in Va and I live in CT. But the interesting thing that happened 2 weeks prior was that I was going out of town with a friend of mine and I needed a good book. So I went to Barnes and Noble and stood in front of the inspirational books and said a silent prayer asking God what book He wanted me to read. Well you guessed it was the book that the simulcast was on. So I was already 3/4’s the way reading through this very informative book when I found out about the simulcast from my friend in another state.
When my friend told me I went online and found a church hostess really close to my home.
I just wanted to share this wonderful story and how God’s hand was working to orchestra my presence to hear you speak in person.
I loved every minute of it! I felt the Holy Spirit so strong during the worship I could barely hold it together. I honestly was a puddle! I also felt that the ending prayer with another women was oh so powerful! I really have been thinking about my own behavior since the conference and been working hard on reacting differently to my husband.
Thank you again for allowing me to share my story on your blog.
Love in Christ,
Jenny Zito
Thank you for the commissioning statement, it brought tears to my eyes and a reminder of God’s love & security in him, Thank you Beth
PS The simulcast on Sat. 24 was off the hook, God moved that day and continues to move in my life
Great time of worship and study. I attended at Colonial Heights Baptist Church in Colonial Heights, VA. I live in Richmond, just a short drive away. Thank you for putting the commissioning statement on the Blog. I plan on putting this where I can refer tom it when the insecurities in me hit.
God bless you, your family and your ministry.
Thanks so much for posting this. There were 3 of us telling this to each other. We were trying to look into each other’s eyes and really mean what we were saying. But, now it makes me giggle thinking of looking back and forth at each other. Ha! I will write this out and share it with them. Still in awe of Saturday. I was going to share a verse that hit me yesterday that goes perfectly with this…but my 4 year old is enthralled at this moment with the maps at the back of my Bible. I think I’ll let him have some time. =)God Bless!
I was just counting on it and praying that you’d post this prayer. I was praying it, but had two friends with me and it was a HUGE moment for one friend of mine and I found myself praying it over her as she wept, because she could not utter the words out loud. My precious Father assured me that He was praying it over me, but I want it to put in my Bible and pray it often as a reminder of the day I put the stake in the ground and said, ” So Long Insecurity”! Thanks sis.
The day was awesome. The commitment was icing on the cake.
Thanks so much! What an empowering simulcast and so excited to have been a part of something so huge for women! God is truly at work in the lives of his daughters!
Saturday was an awesome day that I got to share with 8 of my sisters from church. Totally amazing.
Thank you so much for this. I was hoping to find it and I did.
OK, so I was at Woodstock Baptist with my mother to hear this amazing message, and we paired up at the end for the vow. Looking into each other’s eyes and saying, “My Dear Sister” choked me up and i could barely speak the rest.
My sweet mother is my spiritual mentor, teacher, keeper of my babies, and incredible overcomer- and to think of her also as my Sister in Christ just blows me away. God is so Good! Thank you from the deepest well of my heart!
Just wanted to say that I caught the simulcast at First Bapstist Church Roanoke Va. I knew I needed to be there when I woke up that morning dreading spending my one day off in two weeks in church. I watch Beth a lot on Life Today and my old home church used her resources as study guides, might I add that one of those studies showed me I had to forgive the man I dated for ten years that raped and impregnated my fourteen yeard old daughter. Don’t feel sorry for me I’ve got the best and most beautiful grand daughter named Emily and she’s a blessing to my life. Anyway..that simulcast was so powerful and so moving that I sat there quietly and tears rolled down my face. WOW what a revelation on how I feel about me. God bless you Beth for being just as crazy as me. In the last few years we’ve (my family and I) have really been through it. We recently lost our home and had to split up and I am currently staying with an old high school friend. I told you that to tell you this. My friend is not saved and very insecure. I now feel that if me losing my home and my family being put into three different places happened so I could be a light in my friends darkness then it was well worth it. I’m one of those Jesus Freaks. I can’t shut up about God or what he’s done for me. I’ll tell anyone who will listen. In the grocery store, at the car wash, where I work. I know sometimes they think “oh man, here she comes again”. haha I love it. I’m on fire for Jesus. I don’t look at my current situation I look at the promise in Jerm 29:11. I lean on God. And through these last years of constant storms my faith has grown so much that I wouldn’t trade those storms for the prettiest pair of shoes and matching handbag on sale at J.C Penny. I love you Beth Moore. One last thing to tell you. I was in line to buy your book so long insecurities for my friend who didn’t come to the simulcast with me. Well the lady infront of me had got the last copy. SO the wonderful volunteer looked at me and said I’m sorry I’ve sold the last book, well the lady who got two copies handed me one of them and said “I picked up two one for me and one for my friend, but I see she’s got her own”. I have favor EVERYWHERE I go. And p.s I’m reading your book as we speak. God bless our mess Mrs. Moore. Keep on being crazy for Christ. And by the way your hair and NOSE are devine kiddo.
Will Beth be putting together a Bible study/small group kit to go along with this book? There are a number of ladies from my church and small group would would love to read this book as a group. So far, we plan on pulling the questions off of the blog and using them to help but are wondering if there will be any other resources available.
Thanks!
This is SOOOO great! I did not make it to the conference but I have so enjoyed reading out on the blogosphere all the women who wrote about what they learned!
I love this closing thought and plan to post it on my blog at: http://www.womenlivingwell-courtney.blogspot.com
Much Love,
Courtney
Beth, the simulcast was awesome. The worship was amazing. I am still walking on the clouds. I am inspired to be rid of the insecurity that has plaqued me. It is so hard for me to believe that you suffer from this horrible condition. I received Christ as my Savior when I was seven years old. I know of His power and love, yet I constantly look around at other people and allow them to define me. I have just started reading your book and feel that God is calling me to somehow put together a study for our church this summer about insecurity (am I allowed to use your material to do that?). I work with the youth in our church, but I have not done an adult teaching in a while. So, I feel like God is stretching me…especially when it requires me to admit to others what I insecurities are.
I am already thinking ahead knowing that the Lord IS going to bring healing to me and thinking the next biggest struggle is going to be how do I do life with all of these other insecure people. Because I know from past experience that as God shows me the areas in my life where I need to change and grow, that I begin to really see it in other people. That’s when I know I need to be on my knees in prayer for those people.
I have two teenage daughters and I have seen how they have been hurt by other girls because of insecurity. My desire is that my girls will read your book. I, like you said, am inspired to make a difference in other girls / women’s lives. Why should these young girls wait until they are in their 40’s to figure this out?
God bless you, Beth, and your ministry. I have participated in several of your studies…most recently, “Living Beyond Yourself”. You are truly anointed by God and I know that He desires that you would walk securely in HIM!! I pray that you will allow our precious Jesus to be your security-everyday. Much love to you!!!
And we are complete in Him…accepted in the beloved. Arlie
Saturday was one of the best days of my life. I am trusting God period!!!! What more can be said?
If it’s really true that I am dearly loved and totally forgiven, and that I am a woman of strength and dignity, I guess that means that I am still welcome here even after saying what I did which I have had so much shame and embarrassment over..and I don’t have to hang my head or hide but I can hold my head high and smile and say hello Siesta Mama, I’ve missed you. Love, Sweet Anonymous
I attended the Simulcast before reading the book. I went with a friend wondering if it would be for me. I have done several of your Bible studies and loved everyone of them, however the title of the book did make me wonder. I must say I absolutely loved that day and went right out and bought the book. I am half way through the book and God is all over this book! I am finding that I was dealing with issues that I didnt even have a name for and now I do! I lost twins at the age of 16. I am 32 years old now and a mother of three and have a wonderful Christian husband and a great life. However I deal with the issues of worrying when something tragic will happen again. Thank you for writing this book, I believe it will help many women.
Blessed, Amanda from Florida
Thank you so much for publishing this commission statement. I so very much enjoyed being at the simulcast in Lexington, SC. The timing was perfect for me and my 6 other fellow attendees from my church. God Bless you Beth and may He continue to use you to reach so many women
Thank you so much. I was hoping to find, in-print, the words we ladies spoke to each other last week, repeating after Beth. As the week wore on, I was trying to remember what I learned last week, so this is great ~ AWESOME! Thanks
Thanks again ~ just read this verse, and I go, Wow ~ this really goes well with what we learned:
Proverbs 1:33 NKJV
But whoever listens to me
will dwell safely,
And will be secure,
without fear of evil.
Thank you for posting this prayer. I have been listening to “SLI” on CD in my car for the last 2 weeks, and just finished it this afternoon (as I was driving home, after taking my 15-year old daughter to her friends surprise 16th birthday party). Just want to say – I cry every time I listen to the chapter eluding to Jackson and his little sister “alphabeth” – SO precious!
I appreciate your ministry so! I am South African, and have been living in Texas for a while. I loved your study on Daniel and have done a couple other of your studies. Thank you for the good work that you do among woman to the glory of God,
In Christ,
Surette Smuts,
League City, TX
Thank you so much for posting this. It meant so much to my friend and I at the simulcast. We had tears running down our faces knowing that in our friendship we will be there for each other and care. THANK YOU!
A belated note to say the simulcast was PHENOMENAL! My best gal-pal and I ventured to Callabash Presb CHurch in Callabash,NC-gosh were we over come with his spirit and Beth’s definitive words! Hoping our church in Little River, SC will host in September!
We are studying ‘Annointed,TRansformed,and Redeemed nwo- we are on the last 2 weeks and have all ages in our study group! Thank you Beth for your gift to lift your fellow sisters up in his name!
WOW!

Hello there,
My name is Leianne and my husband and I just returned from our vacation in Jamaica. I am 35 years old and I hadn’t really thought of myself as insecure, BUT in one area I am and your words hit straight to the heart!! I want healing in this area and I figured if where better than beach to recieve healing for my insecurity over my not so young or firm body. Yes I am crazy!!! I purchased your book on Tuesday and we left on Wednesday. I didn’t open it until we were pool-side at our resort….and I was in a swimsuit. I could not put it down!! Through it, the Lord changed all my thoughts about every bikini-clad body that walked in front of me. Thank you doesn’t really express my gratitude. There’s more…I finished the book at 34,000 feet on our way home. In the middle of (probably chapter 15 or so the Lord spoke to me and told me to give the book away. I had the perfect person in mind!!! I couldn’t wait to present her with this gift. He spoke again and said, “Nope…I want you to give it to someone on this plane”. Some stanger on a plane from Jamaica to Dallas??? Yes… I began praying that He would show me who..with a neon sign. He didn’t quite use the signeage I wanted but He spoke to my spirit and I knew. She was a flight attendant in our cabin. I have no idea if she is an insecure woman or if she even has a relationship with my Savior, but now she has a copy of this fabulous book. I simply told her to read it and give it to another woman. I know that God has already done the rest. Please join me in praying that she will recieve what God has for her and that she will share the gift. Thank you agian!!
