Beth Moore is a general fiction and Christian writing and inspirational novelist.

She was born in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and spent much of her childhood in Arkadelphia, Arkansas where he father owned and operated a cinema house. Beth Moore and all her four siblings at some point used to work in the family cinema.
While from the outside it looked like a tight-knit family, nothing could be further from the truth. Even while Beth was still very young, her father used to sexually abuse her.
He then started cheating blatantly and her mother was driven to the brink of suicide and severe mental illness.

During this time, she used to go to the local Southern Baptist Church at least three times every week. For Beth church was something of a safe place from all the mental anguish and abuse back at home.
Later, she would proceed to college, Texas State University where she graduated with a political science Bachelor of Arts degree. While she was at university she used to belong to the Chi Omega organization.

Moore was just 18 when she decided that she had a future working in Christian ministry. She realized the need to learn more about the bible when she started volunteering at Sunday school during her teen years.
Attending a doctrinal class, she developed a strong desire to know more about the word and was soon teaching a weekly bible class.

By the time the 1990s came around, she was teaching more than 2000 women and speaking to many congregations in the Texas south.

Without getting any education in theology, many of her Bible Studies were soon made into published works by Lifeway Christian Resources. This drove demand for her speaking and soon she had a national speaking ministry.
By the 2000s, she was holding weekend conferences attended by thousands under Living Proof Ministries which she had founded a few years earlier.

While she was criticized by many Southern Baptist Convention leaders for speaking on Sundays, she still supported the SBC’s complementarian theology.

But in 2021, she adopted an egalitarian theological position and had to leave the SBC and sever her publishing relationship with Lifeway Christian too.

While she adopted egalitarian views, she has said that she is neither feminist nor liberal and is also pro-choice from conception to death.

Nonetheless, she has been a major critic of white supremacy in the church. She has also criticized some leaders in the Evangelical movement who dismissed allegations of Donald Trump’s moral flaws.

She was disgusted when many evangelicals rallied around Trump following the release of the “Access Hollywood” tapes in which the then-candidate for US president made offensive remarks regarding women.
Outside of that, she has also spoken a lot about sexual abuse since she was abused in her home as a child.

She would become an advocate for survivors of sexual abuse and can often be found urging the church to examine coverups and crimes, listening to survivors, and sharing her story.
Moore has also called out men in the SBC and the evangelical movement for dismissing sexual abuse claims and objectifying women.

“All My Knotted Up Life” is an illuminating memoir by Beth Moore, an author best known as the founder of “Living Proof Ministries.”

She begins by telling of her childhood as the fourth of five siblings who was brought up in rural Arkansas where she did odd jobs at the cinema her father managed.
Following the family’s move to Houston while Beth was a teenager, she found community in church and made a commitment to God, which she would have for the rest of her life.
Looking back at her evolution in matters of spirituality, she recalls times when she used to feel the powerful presence of God in her life.

As these moments increased in intensity, she dedicated her life to God at 18 as she set out to pursue spiritual service as a vocation.

From this moment on, Beth Moore takes you through her career including how she began volunteering at Sunday school before this evolved into Bible studies.
She also tells of her break with the SBC due to its sexual abuse scandals and hyper-conservative values.
In this memoir, Moore shows herself as a consummate storyteller who candidly charts the ups and downs of her life and shares insights into what life is like for a high-profile evangelical bible teacher.

Beth Moore’s “Praying God’s Word” is a work in which she writes that one of the biggest purposes of the Word is to help readers deal with anything that is holding them down.
This includes anything from a lack of forgiveness, pride, depression, and addiction which are holding down a lot of people.

Rather than being a name it and claim it work, it is more of a thoughtful guide for using the Bible in a structured manner to pray. Beth invites you to take down some strongholds with prayer and scripture as the two sticks of dynamite.
In this, she gives both seasoned prayer veterans and those new to prayer a better way of conducting prayer.

The pages are arranged topically, even as Moore randomly scatters words of wisdom throughout the text from the likes of Francis Frangipane, Jim Cymbala, Charles Spurgeon, and Kay Arthur.
Even when the strongholds are demolished, Beth Moore urges us to continue to pray and read the word so that we can be maintained in our walk with God.

“Breaking Free” by Beth Moore is an interesting work given that it is based on only four lines from Isaiah.

In the first section, Beth Moore offers a brief overview of the different captivities of the Israelites and the kings of Israel.

She then leads us through a study about the benefits of getting to know God more deeply and the many things that keep us from knowing God.

We then move deeper into the heart of the novel, as she tells us how to break free of a host of things that make it hard to live a victorious life as a Christian. This can be anything from a heart hardened by prayerlessness, loss, idolatry, betrayal, and pride.
She encourages us to share personal struggles as by sharing we can get others to help us know God through prayer and study of God’s word.

The key takeaway is that complete surrender is ultimately what results in complete spiritual freedom.
