SO many of us women in the 70's, 80's were sexually abused by brothers, cousins, uncles, neighbors... I don't know why those men ever thought it was okay to do those horrible things to a little girl... I speak from experience.
I can't help but wonder if there was influence from the 'free love' and 'anything goes movement of the 60's? I'm not condoning the behavior by any means or trying to explain it away. I too was a victim in those time frames you mentioned. So I was just thinking out loud about how we so easily allow certain culture changes and not expect there to be fallout. Bless you!
The sad truth is no one cares when a family member (elderly father & cousin) does this. Christ cares and in Him is the greatest hope of true healing. I agree with the wisdom of combining Therapy & Theology. Keep praying for survivors 🙏🏾.
That is quite a testimony. A child's view of God is usually formed by the dominant parent or authority in their household. That Beth Moore could still believe God was faithful during and after her father's abuse is amazing indeed.
This is exactly what happens when you say, YES! To Jesus. As you walk with Him, He changes your thoughts, your heart, and He teaches you how to heal to forgive the impossible. Without Jesus, nobody can do this. Never forget, Jesus loves these people, and He died for them too. All sin was poured on Jesus. He even knew God turned away from Him. God couldnt look at Him. Is what I believe. Jesus even called out to Him! My God, My God, Why Have You Forsaken Me? Jesus believed He was forsaken by God. That was how Jesus felt, and believed. I dont, I believe God forsaken Jesus.I do believe this is what happened. God turned His back so He didnt have to watch. But Forsaken Jesus??? No Way!! Not even for a second. Jesus did exactly what The Father told Him to do. God never loved Jesus more, than in that moment. Yes, I do believe that.
Difference between you and Beth is that Beth for psychological protection made up a personal Jesus that is not in the Bible Her horrible sexual rapes helps me understand she is hearing voices like Jesus She is in and out of schizophrenia delusion I hope you don’t inherit the demons that she has adopted to band aid her horrific crimes against her and trauma You need to help her not her lead you mam
@@timsmith7224 What makes you say that? Im just being curious. Im not looking for an argument. We dont know each other, and we need to relearn how to be polite to each other. If you choose not to reply, I respect that too
She's not even a Pastor she should be ashamed of herself, she's no more Pastor, then a raccoon in my yard, read the Bible what it says about women being pastors, she's a lunatic and a nut she speaks blasphemy. She's a charlatan.
Exactly, she is spreading bitterness in the church among women mostly. She needs healing of her soul badly. Joyce Meyer is the great example of CHRIST's healing.
I agree. We tend to protect the abuser and not the abused. And the biggest mistake I have made personally, was that forgiveness somehow washed away the sin and made it ok to go back endure more abuse. We can pray for them, but in my experience, I will never allow my abusers access to my physical or emotional self again .
Abusers don't need to be forgiven - God only forgives those that 1) ask for forgiveness, 2)feel Godly sorrow for the specific crime, 3) repent and never do it again. Abusers are the walking dead most of the time and are never sorry.
Amen. We were taught to allow them back which proved our forgiveness. I was abused for over 30years because of this wicked thinking. I’m picking up the pieces daily.
@@junetaylor8396 Jesus specifically said that we are to forgive in Matthew 6:14-15 - "For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins." Too many people think forgiveness is reconciliation but those are COMPLETELY different things. In order for TRUE reconciliation to occur, repentance and recompence need to happen first. 1) The person needs to understand what they did wrong and reject it. Very few victimizers do this! 2) If there's anything that can be done to rectify the situation, the person in the wrong must do it. 3) If the person who was wronged, feels it's appropriate, there can be reconciliation but never before steps 1 & 2 are done!
@@middletonl1737 You will receive a higher resurrection for suffering at the hands of the "church" just like the victims of the Spanish Inquisition or the alter boys who are abused by priests. The day of Judgment will come.
Dearest Beth, being a survivor of SA myself-thank you for being so vulnerable and transparent. My faith is smaller than a mustard seed and I have bounced back and forth in being faithful and being unfaithful to Jesus my whole life, always looking for some sort of emotional relief. Your sharing here makes me feel like I can find safety in the Lord. Maybe I just need to settle into a place of trust somehow.
2 Timothy 1:7 Comes to my mind! Trust is a Spirit to seek! Isaiah 11.2 also helps me! He give us THE Spirits of, Wisdom, Knowledge, Understanding, Insight, Discernment, Counsel, Might and fear of THE Lord! 💌📖😔 Bless be God, who dot not turn away Our Prayers Nor His Mercy! Psalm 66:20! Also, Proverbs 3:4,5&6 I keep front and center!
As do we all. The world will always disappoint us at some level. Jesus really is our only hope for healing, joy, and peace. Everything else will fall short, just like we do.
Wow! God bless Beth Moore and her husband. She has gone through so much, yet she continues to honor God. While helping other women to preserve. Praise God! For He has done amazing things.
Beth Moore is a charlatan. She's a nut you better stay away from her read your Bible go to a good church stay away from people like her she's crazy, a blasphemer
Thank you Beth for sharing the most vulnerable parts of your life. Many non believers need to see what the Grace of God can do to heal trauma in our lives.
I started listening to Beth and Life Today 11 years ago after the sudden death of my dad. She was like the foster mom I needed while my mom healed from the loss. I hope to be faithful to the Lord regardless of the trials of life too. Praying for you Beth
“Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul - and sings the tunes without the words - and never stops at all.” Emily Dickinson Thank you for sharing your story.
I have also experienced this same type of abuse.. Keep fighting that good fight Beth, you are an inspiration being used by God. You and the ministry God has called you too are in my prayers.
@Eucharist Angel Wow, was that pretty rude. Look at the sign of the times. Can’t you tell the coming of the Lord is soon. Are you a believer? I hope you are if not , please run to Jesus Christ and be saved. If you are a believer get closer to him and he will reveal to you the times we living in. It’s time to get ready, no more playing around. I mean well by telling you this. God bless you.

Beth thank you so much for being so open with us. I’ve followed you for years and I’m thankful that you’ve shared this information with us. It takes a lot to be this vulnerable but it’s healing for all of us. Love you. ❤
@@Catrussh I’m sorry you had to go through that horrible experience. I pray the Father heals and restore you completely. He’s healing and restoring me too.
“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18 ESV I am so sorry you went through that trauma. My heart aches for you. 😢 But there is hope. Run to Him. You can trust him. There is healing and freedom from your pain. Join a women’s prayer group and seek the Lord with all your heart. He is waiting for you to show you just how much he loves you. Decide you want your healing. God bless you.
Beth Moore, you are correct. I love you and have grown so much bc of your love for the Lord and willingness to follow Him. Thank you for serving the Lord.
@@philhenry8227 Shame on you. It is comments like this that stop victims from coming forward and allows the perpetrators to go unpunished. You should be ashamed of yourself.
@@philhenry8227 Stop making sexual assault about the victim's character instead of the offender's violent nature. This is not the forum for your type of comments. Your behavior is inexcusable. Shame on you.
God bless Beth Moore. Such an amazing testimony of God's faithfulness. As a survivor of childhood sexual and physical abuse, I can testify that God's Unfailing Love really does change everything! I love my Heavenly Father. I am a Treasured Daughter of the Heavenly Father, Chosen and Dearly Loved and WANTED!
God Bless you, Beth and your Family. No one understands unless they have been in your same situation. Parents are ESSENTIAL, when they fail or blame you for their failures, it hurts. Been there. Never give up on Your FAITH in JESUS. Love and live for him. He is still Active in our lives, cares very much, even when we cannot, seeor feel it. He is a GOOD FATHER!
Beth Moore is a blessing. She is truly inspiring. The following verse comes to mind. “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18 ESV I can personally testify that this is so true. Good is good no matter what. He has a purpose with everything in our lives. The more pain the larger the reward. After all didn’t he suffer the greatest, and we are his reward. I’m sure he thinks it was all worth it. How amazing is that!
Bipolar and childhood sexual abuse absolutely wreck havoc on a marriage. Christian counseling has helped tremendously! Praise the Lord! He is faithful always.
Y'all need to save your judgement. Being abused and naming her abuser is entirely up to her and her walk with Jesus. Her notoriety will assist so many believers who have walked through this as well, in her bringing the topic up and being a survivor, an encourager. People behave in different ways after a lifetime of abuse. She has been led down this path to tell her story. He will turn all things to good. We believe this, and believe her sharing will help minister to others.
Dear Sister in Christ , my heart goes out to you for what you have been through with your father .So thankful that you found your true Father ,Papa God ! The one who truly Loves you and will not betray you .The one who loves you so much he sent his son to save you / us by washing all our sins away, taking our place on the cross ! Thankful for you and your willingness to share testimony to help others who have gone through this horrific trauma . God Bless you Sister ! ❤🙏🕊
I love Beth Moore! I'm a Trump supporter but my friends are allowed to have other views. She's my sister in Christ and I'm so thankful for her brave walk with God and the gift that she shares to bless so many others!♥️🙏

Beth, The Lord has used your book "Breaking Free" to transform my life exponentially. This book was used to help me see the love and grace of God at pivotal moments in my life that I thought I would never come back from. Thank you for your obedience to God's call on your life and for courageously sharing the most intimate details of your life, to help others understand that freedom can be real, with Christ. May God continue to strengthen you and your ministry as you fulfill the work of your Father in heaven.
I love you Beth Moore!!!!!! Your a friend and Inspiration… If you only knew and since we know the same Heavenly Father, I believe you do… my condolence regarding your brother. Mine was a sister in 2012… So much love to you, my darling sister…❤😊❤😊❤😊
I’ve always loved her. I’m so glad she kept going and kept preaching. And I’m really thankful she had the courage to come out and say that many times the church protects the abuser and not not the abused (and I would add many times blames the abused). There’s no words to describe how that makes someone feel.
God bless this woman! She is so vulnerable and honest and open. Can't wait to read her memoir. Got it on preorder and arrived a few days ago! She inspires us to dig deep into God's word- what a teacher she is!
Watching this with tears streaming down my face. Whew. Beth Moore has been the single greatest mentor of my life. As a woman in ministry who was sexually abused by my father, and as a military spouse whose husband courageously battles PTSD ... and as a seminary student literally currently writing a research paper on the SBC limiting women in ministry ... I am just absolutely even more in admiration of Beth Moore and all that God has and is doing through her beautiful life and ministry. Her bravery and boldness is a raging wildfire of light, passion and direction for the rest of us called and anointed sisters to find our way through the darkness and destruction of gender role ignorance and confusion within the church walls that dares to keep us silent and stifled. Praising God for this incredible servant of the King.
I am sorry to hear the struggles you have had and praise to God for the servant you have become. When you study Beth Moore and you are writing your research paper, not including the SBC, how do you respond to Paul and the Bible talking about the qualifications for Elder, Pastor, Overseaser and Teacher? Do you feel God and the Bible is limiting you? I hope and pray that the truth of Scripture is what guides us, not what the the culture of the times or our emotions dictate it.
@@danielkim672 this feels like you taking this moment and throwing out a “gotcha” question. Not knowing you, and as a fellow follower of Christ I’m hoping I’m wrong. You are free to hold to your interpretations all you want. May I ask which scholars with a differing view have you studied from? Who has shaped your view of women and how the Bible sees us and our worth and place in this world?
@Eucharist Angel I’m not sure how to answer this other than pointing out that the church of Jesus has a long history of women in leadership, including preaching. You may not like it and may choose to interpret a couple passages in a way that says women must know their place, but this is not historically the view of the church everywhere. Even the SBC had female pastors until the 1980’s.
@@daneesledge1626 Just because churches in history, run by flawed humans had woman as elders, church founders, pastors etc does not make it Biblically true. Those couple passages are still the Word of God correct? And those passages are not saying 'women must know their place', no. The passages provide clear direction on the qualifications of these various 'offices/positions' within a church. Just because they hold these positions, does not make men greater than women. They are in just different roles. it is only humans that put greater due to earthly roles and accomplishments.
Nothing is worse than someone you depend on and love becoming a monster to you! It really messes up a person. I found out when I was 36 yrs old that my Biological Grandfather tried to abuse my Mom when she was 16 yrs old. Telling her that he needs to prepare her for the boys! ( Sick!!!). It made me realize why my mother was the way she was with men. Married 4 times with boyfriends in between... Amongst other things... Very sad!! 😢
I have done many Bible Studies by Beth Moore and I have learned so much from her and love her persona. All my Bible Study sisters always said we wish she was our neighbor and friend.
Hello Beth, I look at you, and I see the pain, hurt, injustices, and everything else that the bible shows us. You also teach us how to walk in God, in purpose, and be victorious and overcome. For that, I'm so grateful for you. Thanks for your openness, honesty and courage.
🥺🥺I believe that the sexual abuse of children in America is one of the key reasons we're being judged. In addition to the racial ugliness. Innocent blood has been shed and there's no repentance for it. The blood of babies and the mistreatment and murders of the enslaved. I pray that if it doesn't STOP, that God WILL come quickly and end this (for the sake of these poor children). It's hard to try to brave through abuse and put on a smiling face, when you're rerunning an assault in your head like a broken record. Then YOU the "victimized" must work through that trauma and forgive the monster. You have no idea how sexual abuse destroys a child's soul UNLESS you've gone through it. Justice, justice!!
Beth Moore nailed it. When I tried to open up to my youth minister when I was younger about what was happening to me at home he accused me of making it up to get attention. In the following weeks I had another youth staff member call me to meet with him. I went to the church and into his office for "counseling" and he told me he had a problem with masturbation and was there anything I could think of to help him. I knew then that no one was going to help or believe me and that now I was actually a target for people like that. I told him he needed to speak with another man about his "problem" and got out of there, but I couldn't get away from what was happening at home
I am so sorry this happened to. We thank our ABBA Father never slumbers or sleeps n has been watching over you. I pray that you are the Overcomer in Christ. Much love
I'm so sorry that this happened to you. God sees everything and even if noone believed you, God knows and He will repay. Sadly, there has been a long history of this in the church. These people are not saved and should not be seen as representative of the true body of Christ. They are predators and God will deal with them and hold them to account whether here or on judgement day if they have not repented. Scripture says "It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of an angry God"! May He bring you peace in knowing that He is a "Just God" and that He knows and He cares about this! You are loved, you are valued and you are not forgotten. Forgive your abusers and let God Almighty deal with them. Hopefully they will repent before it's too late. God bless you.
Many are woefully unaware of the abuse happening within our churches. I pray for your full healing and overcoming the trauma. ❤️ I recommend you look up Arthur Burk and his free info on 'overcoming the victim spirit' it will answer many questions and much hope for overcoming ❤️ and then to help others to be free and healed by the stripes of our Jesus ❤️
I married a man who's family was in a church full of sexual abuse. Nothing was done. To this day, all that my was exposed to and lack of a father affected our marriage. He's absent from our home yet still hypocritically served in another church.....just like the abusers he grew up with. No one said anything. But now after facing my own issues, I have to speak up.
I truly hope you are successful in speaking up. How can our churches be filled with wickedness? Because we have only “a form of godliness but deny the power thereof!” Without bearing the fruits of the Holy Spirit and operating in the gifts of the Holy Spirit we are completely powerless against the enemy. Tks for sharing, it must be very painful to confront this openly!
@encouragingword1172 It's a very careful walk. It isn't often nor as aggressive as people think it has to be. If God allows me to discern something, then I know I need to pray first before saying anything. I ask God for the opportunity, an open-door of sorts, to step in with my thoughts.....but I start with a question. Like asking a pastor or leader "Why do you think very little young adults stay in this church?" Or "Do you think it's been effective money is spent that way?" That's just the way I do it to get conversation going so at some point I can say what I see the Bible saying. For me, I try not to be too straightforward because that didn't help in my marriage.🤪
@victorabustamante7207 I tried. Many women who've been in this situation have tried but no one listens due to being a woman or perhaps the man is just favored, I don't know. If you have a limited scope of dealing with people in churches or different types of churches, you may not know this. I can't tell you how many leaders don't do anything or they paint the "truth-teller" as crazy. I don't know what's going on now wherever my husband is, but now wherever I am to see this happening, I speak up for others.
“And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.” Galatians 6:9-10 KJV
Beth Moore? She proclaims Christianity yet over the years, her standards have dropped and she no longer lives/“preaches” according to the gospel. Very sad to see. Don’t know why CBN is promoting her. (Starting to think that CBN is no longer a biblical news source).
@Toni F. Overby read 1st Thessalonians 4 and Revelation 2. The Lord is clear that you cannot simultaneously be His friend and an enemy of His morality. Beth Moore is very tight with the sodomy- affirming religious crowd. Her own daughter has come out in favor of redefinition of marriage and is still on her ministry's payroll.
We are a nation of laws that protect our most innocent, our children, there are degrees of sexual misbehavior and abuse. It is so very rare to see recovery and restoration in these instances. It is horrible to go through, Yet many have Overcome & gone in to bring God glory & honor through His Mercy, Grace & Powerfully conversion. Did Beth bring God glory by reveling her abuser? I do believe Beth could have handled this a different way. As sad & tragic as it is to hear about Beth's abuse, she proclaimed to be victorious Christian a new creature in Christ, but Exposing the sin of her Father was something she could have let go to the grave. He's not here to defend himself. She's a multimillion-dollar so-called teacher and and preacher but plays the victim card, Now, After, she started to lose millions of dollars due to her ultra-liberal unbiblical compromises with the woke crowed, they are so proud & loud in their delusions and perversions, destroying so many children with their teachings & practices. They are off the rails when it comes to perverting our children with the trans, drag, gay movement. Grooming children now so openly!!! CBN is straddling the same fence & they will both fall into the pig pen with no recovery if they don't repent! Christ came to give Life & that more Abundantly, forgiving us & allowing us to forgive, Even our abusers! Not by any way excusing their sin! I wounder If Beth's father sought forgiveness biblicly ? Even if not, she could have ministered and kept the dignity of her extended family & their privacy. Confession is freeing, Exposing ones father's sins is shameful. There are times when it Must be done. We Can be free of abuse & abusers, we can walk in liberty, helping others and still have the ability to cover a sin in the full sense of the wisdom & love of Christ, according to His Word. Our court system and legal system was based on the judeo Christian law. We Were, a god-fearing country, but we have throwing it all away, and are suffering horrifically because of it! Families once would deal Very Harshly with these issues. But we have become civilized, tolerant & weak. We're trying to deal with so many gross sins in Un biblical ways, thinking we can be open, free & expose stuff without considering the full effect of it. We are instructed to settle these thing face to face with courage, if that doesn't happen we can take a wise trusted elder to confront our abusers, if that dose not conclude the matter, THEN, we go to our local fellowship & deal with it! If Pastors, elders and counselors would Consistently, follow the proper biblical pattern, we would cleanse the culture of this horrific abuse of children! Again God's perfect Word instructs us that a person freed from abuse, sin ,& bondage can live New, Above their past, can be healed, saved & grow past the worst sins, even forgiving & covering a multitude of sons, not excusing them. We can do both OVERCOME , AND, cover a multitude of sins. God sees it all! Even when the worst happens & leaders become abusers. The Goverment of men can never bring full healing alone. I pray for Beth for All who suffer such pain , heartache, loss, & shame. That they Overcome by the blood & atonment of Jesus Christ. Growing strong, living free of guilt & shame, being wise & kind full of mercy walking beyond retribution & revenge. Letting past sins DIE! in the Past! Going on to Helping others with dignity, pure love, being healed & strong trusting in the Lord to Do Justly. Without, having to destroy the lives of relatives that did not suffer from such things & Now will forever have to deal with shame of a past in loved ones sin. People like Beth come across as narcissistic, far too many of these are being exposed decades later. When instead, they can accomplish their desire to be "Transparent" by letting their abuser remain anonymous. Yet sharing the Power of being able to overcome such horrible things through JESUS CHRIST ALONE!
@@richardburton-777 too bad your comment doesn’t get more likes… I especially have a distaste in my mouth for her outing of the abuser. Great healing for her but shame for her siblings and mother ( if still alive) who haven’t begun to deal with that in their life yet… now all are outed. Very selfish indeed!
Thank you so so much Beth for telling us the truth to help us 💜 Your relationship with the Father comes through and your total reliance upon the Lord to get you through. I believe this is why you have shown such a strong heart and faith to so many because of your holding onto and clinging to our God, our Father.
Im so thankful for women like Beth, showing us how to stay with God and not believe in the evil but believe in the holiness and goodness of God. It is very hard to do but necessary.
@@hollikrebs and to stop the risk of others being harmed (go to police) and report. Too often church or forgiveness is a escape card for continued abusers. Police, no dilly dallying.
God abundantly BLESS Beth Moore! Word about SBC protecting abusers instead of their victims! The Lord bless you sister for taking your (God's) stand. Much respect & love to you!!
Beth, I'm so sorry for your situation. I love you, as a sister in Christ. I had the honor to have been to your conference in Wisconsin it was beautiful ❤️. God bless you and your ministry and family ❤️
As a survivor of SA myself I pray for every sister in Christ to find their validation from Calvary alone. Jesus blood! Everything I could ever hope for or need has been supplied for me on the cross through the love of my savior Jesus Christ. If I daily remind myself or anyone else of anything less than my perfection in Christ alone, through His righteousness, I’m encouraging them to glory in their victimhood. I understand that the flesh desires gratification but we are DEAD to the flesh but alive to God, through our Lord. Therefore there is no condemnation that can touch those trusting in Christ alone.
God give the strength to get threw all this confusing and hatred I've received from other and keep my heart in a good place and my mind on you to get me threw all this I've lost so much I know your a mighty God to deliver me from all this disfunction in my life 🙏 Amen AMEN
My 1st Beth Moore Bible study taught me to pray, “LORD, speak to me through Your Word,” WHEN I opened my Bible to read. (I use KJV). I am grateful for THAT lesson.
Christian liberals still attacking the greatest President this country had ever had in our lifetimes... really sad they feel the need to go after him... just like all the other worldly influencers.
If you can’t recognize all the classic traits of a gaslighting, Narcissistic, pathological lying abuser as Trump than you probably were never abused or maybe you’re an enabler in deep denial. I’m a Christian conservative who woke up to my own political idolatry- repenting. Thank the Lord in 2016 He opened my eyes to the deception of the two party system and how we MUST vote for whomever the system vomits up- including Trump. I tried to warn thousands of my conservative friends that Trump was a deception, a Trojan Horse; A Fox in the hen house, only to be attacked. Discernment is lacking amongst those who profess Christ and as Gods word warns us- Many will be deceived.
@@Pablo19625 Again, can you please point me to where there is information on Trump paying off multiple young girls to hide his abuse of them? I really want to learn more about this but I can't seem to find anything. I don't want to be deceived, so any information you have to expose this would be wonderful.
God bless you Beth Moore. My family is going through something similar, but my husband and I are refusing to hide or protect the abuser. We have been ostracized by other family members, but this generational curse stops here. May your message lead others to freedom. May they know that there is no shame or guilt. That they are so valuable and loved! There really is total freedom through the blood of Jesus. I believe for every victim of sexually abuse, even if you don't believe for yourself! I've seen it with my own eyes.
Beth, I am so sorry for what you went through. You are a beautiful, sweet Christian woman. I look up to you, and even more since hearing/watching this. I will ask God to help heal your wounds.
My abuser was my stepdad. I think the reason I survived as “well” as I did, (I am referring to not turning to drugs or alcohol) is because I was saved at 9 years old. The abuse began when I was about 8 until 12 or so. My mom found out. Did nothing. Forgot about it. She found out again. Did nothing. Forgot about it. Repeatedly. Then after she passed I found a nasty letter she had written 10 years prior about me and some others; mostly me, and accusing me and my stepdad of being in love. I was 61 when I found the letter. My stepdad was a career military man and a pillar of the community. He taught Sunday school and was the church clerk. I couldn’t bear to hear him teach because I knew how mean he was at home. And somehow, I did still love him as a dad. He was the only dad I ever really knew for 50 years. My bio dad was kinda in and out. I told people over the years about the abuse and they either didn’t care or didn’t know how to help. Years ago, there wasn’t help so readily available. I have a new respect for Beth. We never know what someone has been thru. I don’t agree with women preachers because that’s what the Bible says. But she has my respect.
*_Luke 2:36-38, Acts 2:16-21, Acts 21:8-9_* - all women prophets. ... *_AND_* these *_WOMEN_* are not just prophesying to *_OTHER WOMEN._* There is always more to what we *_think we see in the Bible._* I know about the other verses in question, but make no mistake, *_God uses women in ministry._* Plus: in Christ, there is neither male or female, bond or free, Jew or Greek. We are all ONE in Christ *(Gal **3:28**).* Ask God to clarify, but let this begin to put this division to rest. Women are 50% OF THE BODY OF CHRIST! PERIODT! Women are gifted and NEEDED as much as the men.
@@justfelicia6671 of course women are equal but we have different roles. Women prophets ate fine but teaching men is not (and I'm a woman!). Memorize I Timothy 2:12. ALL scripture is inspired by the Holy Spirit. There's a reason God says only men are to teach over men. Most men had bad, absent or so so father figures. They need godly male role models. Men grow from learning under a man. Men who grew up without fathers especially, they have a void and they've been taught by women their entire lives. They need to see a godly role model (often their first role model is their Pastor). Gifted women teach women, who need help more than ever in this crazy world. Let the men lead ladies!
I like that she also recognized her husband as a victim of his bipolar disorder. She recognizes that this isn’t something that he chose not something he chooses for her. How compassionate and gracious of her.
Beth Moore was my friend. I attended many of her Sunday School sessions at !st Baptist Church in Houston. She is a great Bible teacher and a lovely, caring lady. I will always think of her with great fondness.
Thank you Lord for my righteous, safe father. I told him before he passed that the reason I trusted God as my heavenly Father was because I always trusted him as my earthly Father.
She sheltered her father her entire life , but calls out other people. She has become woke and likes notoriety to much. When she aligned with Alyssa Milano & Hollywood and insulted that poor kid from Kentucky that was called a racist I lost all respect for her. Sadly, not the same Beth I knew 20 years ago.
Yes, sadly, the cultural "norms" have crept into our churches and leaders. Sad. I walked away from her teaching for the same reasons. People need to think and reason for themselves not just follow the crowd, even if it's Christian.
@Candice C alot of times we can all get off track and go down paths, God does not want us on. The best thing to do is pray for her to seek him and his will for her. I want to read her book. Although I know there are things she is doing, that is not of God. Let God show her those things and pray for her to let God lead her back. The same with other women. Joyce Meyer is another example. I feel she has believed things and gone off in alot of ways but her story of healing from sexual abuse helped me in so many ways. Pray for them! God will restore!
I am also sad that she was abused, but why tell this story now? If her goal has always been to share God’s word openly and honestly to help others grow in knowledge and grace, why hide this important fact that shaped her into who she is now. In her early writings, I admired her..as time went on, she showed herself as worldly, loving monetary gain, worrying more about her appearance than her teachings. Flashing her designer handbags and clothes while encouraging her audience to “give” to her “ministry”. She is FAKE. She satisfies itching ears as she grows her bank account.

I love her ministry, she is transparent and has a way of touching the soul... whatever they want to say...she impacted my life and the life of my beautiful daughter in law when we attended a Bible study at my daughter in law's church years ago. Stay strong woman of God! Love and prayers 🙏❤️🙏
Dear Beth, YOUR BIBLE STUDIES MEANT EVERYTHING TO ME. This complicated place of life, needs GODS WISDOM TO NAVIGATE THROUGH. My sister was my protector. Only has the years went by did I understand what God pulled her out of.
Thank you, Beth, for the life you have lived and for showing all of us we can overcome through faith. God bless you and your work for Him. (And thank you for taking a stand for what is right for our country and the people of God)
I agree. trump's was just guy talk but Biden is in front of us all the time with the way he touches kids & their reactions.but there really is a problem with sexual abuse that's covered up & I think it's going to be uncovered soon.
EXACTLY! Isn’t she a Bill Clinton fan as well? No discernment, probably looking more at his demeanor than behavior, Joe and Bill come across softer/ worse known behavior.
Good for you Beth. I have a new respect for you dear lady❤ I feel what you went through as a child. I was abused as well but not by my Dad. Gosh my heart breaks for all you’ve been through. It doesn’t seem fair, and yet God knew, what had happened. It must’ve crushed his heart. You are such a strong lady, and when the final judgement comes, you will definitely receive a warm embrace by your Savior. You belong to him, and are safe now. This revival that has come upon the youth, it is a time for you to shine, to help heal and raise up new leaders. Bless you Beth Moore.
God bless you Beth. I’m so sorry what you have endured. I was also abused as a child but kept it inside until I was 59. Many men never disclose it. I have lost so much but Jesus had big plans for me. And I know now that He had His hand on me the whole time. Thank you Jesus!

Thank you Beth for your transparency and honesty. I admire your faith in God and hope to have that some day, and the forgiveness that's so hard to come by.
Well said! They shelter the abuser as if boundaries weren't crossed!! WTW!?!? Bravo Beth!! God continues to use you no matter how many books were returned! God's got this!!💕
Beth, you are an amazing and wonderful women! Your story reminds us of the quote, "Speak the truth even if your voice shakes." Thank heaven for people like you who are not afraid to speak the truth!
I don't understand why churches would reject a testimony that would help others b healed and set free!!! It's RELIGION that does that....NOT TRUE FOLLOWERS OF JESUS CHRIST!! GOD BLESS U FOR STAYING N UR OWN LANE AND DOING WHAT FATHER GOD HAS HAD U DO!!!
I just wanted to say to you, I have been involved in your Bible studies for years. I am so so sorry for your problems with John MacArthur and the Baptist Association. I know you are a woman of God. And God has certainly anointed you for your calling. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Beth is amazing! I was also a victim of abuse by both parents and many others! Beth and her study Breaking Free to name one of many has impacted my life! Openness and Oneness in the Spirit of God is Our testimony! True Worshippers will worship the Lord in Spirit and Truth! By our testimony and the Blood of the Lamb we are free! Stand Strong sister Your Reward in Heaven is Great! Thank you Beth! ❤️
My Dear Beth, I am so sorry. It’s so difficult to believe that your Daddy did what he did. Yet, God saw it all and knew that He was going to be healing you to help others 😢A million blessings to you all who have been abused in one form or another. We must choose to forgive our perpetrators for our own sakes. May God’s loving healing hand be upon you all.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Time for deliverance Beth. Its is 2023 and I heard about this 20 years ago. I feel like your manipulating emotions. Time for deliverance. Your husband would benefit too. Freedom is waiting.
It was a sin to expose Noah's nakedness publicly and it's still a sin today! We are to honor our mother and our father even if it hurts! She's profiting from exposing publicly her father's nakedness.
I love you so much my sister! Proud that you stand for JESUS, no matter what and to see your beauty and the unconditional grace and mercy of Jesus Christ!
Shame on the "Christian heresy hunters" who rejected Beth and attacked her and Joyce Meyer for getting together on some broadcasts. They didn't know what she was going through and never will. God bless her.
SO many of us women in the 70's, 80's were sexually abused by brothers, cousins, uncles, neighbors... I don't know why those men ever thought it was okay to do those horrible things to a little girl... I speak from experience.
I can't help but wonder if there was influence from the 'free love' and 'anything goes movement of the 60's? I'm not condoning the behavior by any means or trying to explain it away. I too was a victim in those time frames you mentioned. So I was just thinking out loud about how we so easily allow certain culture changes and not expect there to be fallout. Bless you!

The sad truth is no one cares when a family member (elderly father & cousin) does this. Christ cares and in Him is the greatest hope of true healing. I agree with the wisdom of combining Therapy & Theology. Keep praying for survivors 🙏🏾.
That is quite a testimony. A child's view of God is usually formed by the dominant parent or authority in their household. That Beth Moore could still believe God was faithful during and after her father's abuse is amazing indeed.
This is exactly what happens when you say, YES! To Jesus. As you walk with Him, He changes your thoughts, your heart, and He teaches you how to heal to forgive the impossible. Without Jesus, nobody can do this. Never forget, Jesus loves these people, and He died for them too. All sin was poured on Jesus. He even knew God turned away from Him. God couldnt look at Him. Is what I believe. Jesus even called out to Him! My God, My God, Why Have You Forsaken Me? Jesus believed He was forsaken by God. That was how Jesus felt, and believed. I dont, I believe God forsaken Jesus.I do believe this is what happened. God turned His back so He didnt have to watch. But Forsaken Jesus??? No Way!! Not even for a second. Jesus did exactly what The Father told Him to do. God never loved Jesus more, than in that moment. Yes, I do believe that.
Difference between you and Beth is that Beth for psychological protection made up a personal Jesus that is not in the Bible
Her horrible sexual rapes helps me understand she is hearing voices like Jesus
She is in and out of schizophrenia delusion
I hope you don’t inherit the demons that she has adopted to band aid her horrific crimes against her and trauma

@@timsmith7224 What makes you say that? Im just being curious. Im not looking for an argument. We dont know each other, and we need to relearn how to be polite to each other. If you choose not to reply, I respect that too
We are good 👍 did you get my reply I find you very nice
She's not even a Pastor she should be ashamed of herself, she's no more Pastor, then a raccoon in my yard, read the Bible what it says about women being pastors, she's a lunatic and a nut she speaks blasphemy. She's a charlatan.
You never know what people are going through. I pray she rises way above these traumas.
Exactly, she is spreading bitterness in the church among women mostly. She needs healing of her soul badly. Joyce Meyer is the great example of CHRIST's healing.
I agree. We tend to protect the abuser and not the abused. And the biggest mistake I have made personally, was that forgiveness somehow washed away the sin and made it ok to go back endure more abuse. We can pray for them, but in my experience, I will never allow my abusers access to my physical or emotional self again .
Abusers don't need to be forgiven - God only forgives those that 1) ask for forgiveness, 2)feel Godly sorrow for the specific crime, 3) repent and never do it again. Abusers are the walking dead most of the time and are never sorry.
Good This is walking in strength
Amen. We were taught to allow them back which proved our forgiveness. I was abused for over 30years because of this wicked thinking. I’m picking up the pieces daily.
@@junetaylor8396 Jesus specifically said that we are to forgive in Matthew 6:14-15 - "For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins."
Too many people think forgiveness is reconciliation but those are COMPLETELY different things. In order for TRUE reconciliation to occur, repentance and recompence need to happen first. 1) The person needs to understand what they did wrong and reject it. Very few victimizers do this! 2) If there's anything that can be done to rectify the situation, the person in the wrong must do it. 3) If the person who was wronged, feels it's appropriate, there can be reconciliation but never before steps 1 & 2 are done!

Dearest Beth, being a survivor of SA myself-thank you for being so vulnerable and transparent. My faith is smaller than a mustard seed and I have bounced back and forth in being faithful and being unfaithful to Jesus my whole life, always looking for some sort of emotional relief. Your sharing here makes me feel like I can find safety in the Lord. Maybe I just need to settle into a place of trust somehow.
2 Timothy 1:7 Comes to my mind! Trust is a Spirit to seek! Isaiah 11.2 also helps me! He give us THE Spirits of, Wisdom, Knowledge, Understanding, Insight, Discernment, Counsel, Might and fear of THE Lord! 💌📖😔 Bless be God, who dot not turn away Our Prayers Nor His Mercy! Psalm 66:20! Also, Proverbs 3:4,5&6 I keep front and center!
As do we all. The world will always disappoint us at some level. Jesus really is our only hope for healing, joy, and peace. Everything else will fall short, just like we do.

Thank you Beth for sharing the most vulnerable parts of your life. Many non believers need to see what the Grace of God can do to heal trauma in our lives.
Love her. She KNOWS where her help comes from. May God continue to heal, set free and be gracious to her and her family.🙏🏽❤
I started listening to Beth and Life Today 11 years ago after the sudden death of my dad. She was like the foster mom I needed while my mom healed from the loss. I hope to be faithful to the Lord regardless of the trials of life too. Praying for you Beth

I love my Heavenly Father. I am a Treasured Daughter of the Heavenly Father, Chosen and Dearly Loved and WANTED!

My God my God. What a testimony! What a powerful woman. I’m blown away by her strength. God is so faithful
God Bless you, Beth and your Family. No one understands unless they have been in your same situation. Parents are ESSENTIAL, when they fail or blame you for their failures, it hurts. Been there. Never give up on Your FAITH in JESUS. Love and live for him. He is still Active in our lives, cares very much, even when we cannot, seeor feel it. He is a GOOD FATHER!
So good. Thanks Beth Moore for all you do. Standing up against the SBC and supporting women 👏🙏❤️
Beth Moore is a blessing. She is truly inspiring. The following verse comes to mind.
“The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.”
Psalm 34:18 ESV
I can personally testify that this is so true. Good is good no matter what. He has a purpose with everything in our lives. The more pain the larger the reward. After all didn’t he suffer the greatest, and we are his reward. I’m sure he thinks it was all worth it. How amazing is that!
Bipolar and childhood sexual abuse absolutely wreck havoc on a marriage. Christian counseling has helped tremendously! Praise the Lord! He is faithful always.
I believe that Beth Moore is a proponent of going to a licensed therapist.
Y'all need to save your judgement. Being abused and naming her abuser is entirely up to her and her walk with Jesus. Her notoriety will assist so many believers who have walked through this as well, in her bringing the topic up and being a survivor, an encourager. People behave in different ways after a lifetime of abuse. She has been led down this path to tell her story. He will turn all things to good. We believe this, and believe her sharing will help minister to others.
Dear Sister in Christ , my heart goes out to you for what you have been through with your father .So thankful that you found your true Father ,Papa God !

This book was used to help me see the love and grace of God at pivotal moments in my life that I thought I would never come back from. Thank you for your obedience to God's call on your life and for courageously sharing the most intimate details of your life, to help others understand that freedom can be real, with Christ. May God continue to strengthen you and your ministry as you fulfill the work of your Father in heaven.

I’ve always loved her. I’m so glad she kept going and kept preaching. And I’m really thankful she had the courage to come out and say that many times the church protects the abuser and not not the abused (and I would add many times blames the abused). There’s no words to describe how that makes someone feel.

She is the Lord's enemy. How can you be so blind as to not see that? Do you read the Word at all?
@@kodiak64Are you an abuser yourself.
Watching this with tears streaming down my face. Whew. Beth Moore has been the single greatest mentor of my life. As a woman in ministry who was sexually abused by my father, and as a military spouse whose husband courageously battles PTSD ... and as a seminary student literally currently writing a research paper on the SBC limiting women in ministry ... I am just absolutely even more in admiration of Beth Moore and all that God has and is doing through her beautiful life and ministry. Her bravery and boldness is a raging wildfire of light, passion and direction for the rest of us called and anointed sisters to find our way through the darkness and destruction of gender role ignorance and confusion within the church walls that dares to keep us silent and stifled. Praising God for this incredible servant of the King.
I am sorry to hear the struggles you have had and praise to God for the servant you have become. When you study Beth Moore and you are writing your research paper, not including the SBC, how do you respond to Paul and the Bible talking about the qualifications for Elder, Pastor, Overseaser and Teacher? Do you feel God and the Bible is limiting you? I hope and pray that the truth of Scripture is what guides us, not what the the culture of the times or our emotions dictate it.
@@danielkim672 this feels like you taking this moment and throwing out a “gotcha” question. Not knowing you, and as a fellow follower of Christ I’m hoping I’m wrong. You are free to hold to your interpretations all you want. May I ask which scholars with a differing view have you studied from? Who has shaped your view of women and how the Bible sees us and our worth and place in this world?
@Eucharist Angel I’m not sure how to answer this other than pointing out that the church of Jesus has a long history of women in leadership, including preaching. You may not like it and may choose to interpret a couple passages in a way that says women must know their place, but this is not historically the view of the church everywhere. Even the SBC had female pastors until the 1980’s.
@@daneesledge1626 Just because churches in history, run by flawed humans had woman as elders, church founders, pastors etc does not make it Biblically true. Those couple passages are still the Word of God correct? And those passages are not saying 'women must know their place', no. The passages provide clear direction on the qualifications of these various 'offices/positions' within a church. Just because they hold these positions, does not make men greater than women. They are in just different roles. it is only humans that put greater due to earthly roles and accomplishments.
@@danielkim672 I will again ask who have you studied theology under?
Nothing is worse than someone you depend on and love becoming a monster to you! It really messes up a person. I found out when I was 36 yrs old that my Biological Grandfather tried to abuse my Mom when she was 16 yrs old. Telling her that he needs to prepare her for the boys! ( Sick!!!). It made me realize why my mother was the way she was with men. Married 4 times with boyfriends in between... Amongst other things... Very sad!! 😢
😢😢terrible . I pray Jesus Christ will heal and comfort her ❤

I have done many Bible Studies by Beth Moore and I have learned so much from her and love her persona. All my Bible Study sisters always said we wish she was our neighbor and friend.
Hello Beth, I look at you, and I see the pain, hurt, injustices, and everything else that the bible shows us. You also teach us how to walk in God, in purpose, and be victorious and overcome. For that, I'm so grateful for you. Thanks for your openness, honesty and courage.
🥺🥺I believe that the sexual abuse of children in America is one of the key reasons we're being judged. In addition to the racial ugliness. Innocent blood has been shed and there's no repentance for it. The blood of babies and the mistreatment and murders of the enslaved. I pray that if it doesn't STOP, that God WILL come quickly and end this (for the sake of these poor children). It's hard to try to brave through abuse and put on a smiling face, when you're rerunning an assault in your head like a broken record. Then YOU the "victimized" must work through that trauma and forgive the monster. You have no idea how sexual abuse destroys a child's soul UNLESS you've gone through it. Justice, justice!!
😥😥😥
Absolutely!
This is true as well as all the racism in the hearts of people who call themselves Christians. God is not pleased.
😢
@@mrs.c2793 'Racism' .... AGAIN!!! The word has been so misused, overused and abused, it covers all manner of grievance at this stage!
Beth Moore nailed it. When I tried to open up to my youth minister when I was younger about what was happening to me at home he accused me of making it up to get attention. In the following weeks I had another youth staff member call me to meet with him. I went to the church and into his office for "counseling" and he told me he had a problem with masturbation and was there anything I could think of to help him. I knew then that no one was going to help or believe me and that now I was actually a target for people like that. I told him he needed to speak with another man about his "problem" and got out of there, but I couldn't get away from what was happening at home
I am so sorry this happened to. We thank our ABBA Father never slumbers or sleeps n has been watching over you. I pray that you are the Overcomer in Christ.
Much love
@@trustingyah7659 such kind and gracious words! TY Trusting YAH. God bless you
I'm so sorry that this happened to you. God sees everything and even if noone believed you, God knows and He will repay. Sadly, there has been a long history of this in the church. These people are not saved and should not be seen as representative of the true body of Christ. They are predators and God will deal with them and hold them to account whether here or on judgement day if they have not repented. Scripture says "It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of an angry God"! May He bring you peace in knowing that He is a "Just God" and that He knows and He cares about this! You are loved, you are valued and you are not forgotten. Forgive your abusers and let God Almighty deal with them. Hopefully they will repent before it's too late. God bless you.
@eucharistangel4662wow, your judgement is beyond harsh. Don’t you realize how people are targeted? Who are you to condemn this person’s testimony?
Many are woefully unaware of the abuse happening within our churches. I pray for your full healing and overcoming the trauma. ❤️ I recommend you look up Arthur Burk and his free info on 'overcoming the victim spirit' it will answer many questions and much hope for overcoming ❤️ and then to help others to be free and healed by the stripes of our Jesus ❤️
I married a man who's family was in a church full of sexual abuse. Nothing was done. To this day, all that my was exposed to and lack of a father affected our marriage. He's absent from our home yet still hypocritically served in another church.....just like the abusers he grew up with. No one said anything. But now after facing my own issues, I have to speak up.
I truly hope you are successful in speaking up. How can our churches be filled with wickedness? Because we have only “a form of godliness but deny the power thereof!” Without bearing the fruits of the Holy Spirit and operating in the gifts of the Holy Spirit we are completely powerless against the enemy. Tks for sharing, it must be very painful to confront this openly!
@encouragingword1172 It's a very careful walk. It isn't often nor as aggressive as people think it has to be. If God allows me to discern something, then I know I need to pray first before saying anything. I ask God for the opportunity, an open-door of sorts, to step in with my thoughts.....but I start with a question. Like asking a pastor or leader "Why do you think very little young adults stay in this church?" Or "Do you think it's been effective money is spent that way?" That's just the way I do it to get conversation going so at some point I can say what I see the Bible saying. For me, I try not to be too straightforward because that didn't help in my marriage.🤪
when the church shows no disciplinary action, it's not the church of Jesus
So why didn't you do something? You are just as bad as they are for not doing anything either
@victorabustamante7207 I tried. Many women who've been in this situation have tried but no one listens due to being a woman or perhaps the man is just favored, I don't know. If you have a limited scope of dealing with people in churches or different types of churches, you may not know this. I can't tell you how many leaders don't do anything or they paint the "truth-teller" as crazy. I don't know what's going on now wherever my husband is, but now wherever I am to see this happening, I speak up for others.
“And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good unto all men, especially unto them who are of the household of faith.”

I relate to her on more levels than I can express 🙏🏻 Stay strong & courageous Beth Moore 💗
May God continue to bless her as she rises above and ministers hope to so many in God's name.
Beth Moore? She proclaims Christianity yet over the years, her standards have dropped and she no longer lives/“preaches” according to the gospel. Very sad to see. Don’t know why CBN is promoting her. (Starting to think that CBN is no longer a biblical news source).
@Toni F. Overby read 1st Thessalonians 4 and Revelation 2. The Lord is clear that you cannot simultaneously be His friend and an enemy of His morality. Beth Moore is very tight with the sodomy- affirming religious crowd. Her own daughter has come out in favor of redefinition of marriage and is still on her ministry's payroll.
We are a nation of laws that protect our most innocent, our children, there are degrees of sexual misbehavior and abuse. It is so very rare to see recovery and restoration in these instances. It is horrible to go through, Yet many have Overcome & gone in to bring God glory & honor through His Mercy, Grace & Powerfully conversion.
Did Beth bring God glory by reveling her abuser?
I do believe Beth could have handled this a different way.
As sad & tragic as it is to hear about Beth's abuse, she proclaimed to be victorious Christian a new creature in Christ, but Exposing the sin of her Father was something she could have let go to the grave. He's not here to defend himself. She's a multimillion-dollar so-called teacher and and preacher but plays the victim card, Now, After, she started to lose millions of dollars due to her ultra-liberal unbiblical compromises with the woke crowed, they are so proud & loud in their delusions and perversions, destroying so many children with their teachings & practices. They are off the rails when it comes to perverting our children with the trans, drag, gay movement. Grooming children now so openly!!!
CBN is straddling the same fence & they will both fall into the pig pen with no recovery if they don't repent!
Christ came to give Life & that more Abundantly, forgiving us & allowing us to forgive, Even our abusers! Not by any way excusing their sin! I wounder If Beth's father sought forgiveness biblicly ? Even if not, she could have ministered and kept the dignity of her extended family & their privacy. Confession is freeing, Exposing ones father's sins is shameful. There are times when it Must be done.
We Can be free of abuse & abusers, we can walk in liberty, helping others and still have the ability to cover a sin in the full sense of the wisdom
& love of Christ, according to His Word.
Our court system and legal system was based on the judeo Christian law.
We Were, a god-fearing country, but we have throwing it all away, and are suffering horrifically because of it!
Families once would deal Very Harshly with these issues. But we have become civilized, tolerant & weak. We're trying to deal with so many gross sins in Un biblical ways, thinking we can be open, free & expose stuff without considering the full effect of it.
We are instructed to settle these thing face to face with courage, if that doesn't happen we can take a wise trusted elder to confront our abusers, if that dose not conclude the matter, THEN, we go to our local fellowship & deal with it! If Pastors, elders and counselors would Consistently, follow the proper biblical pattern, we would cleanse the culture of this horrific abuse of children! Again God's perfect Word instructs us that a person freed from abuse, sin ,& bondage can live New, Above their past, can be healed, saved & grow past the worst sins, even forgiving & covering a multitude of sons, not excusing them. We can do both OVERCOME , AND, cover a multitude of sins. God sees it all! Even when the worst happens & leaders become abusers. The Goverment of men can never bring full healing alone.
I pray for Beth for All who suffer such pain , heartache, loss, & shame. That they Overcome by the blood & atonment of Jesus Christ. Growing strong, living free of guilt & shame, being wise & kind full of mercy walking beyond retribution & revenge. Letting past sins DIE! in the Past! Going on to Helping others with dignity, pure love, being healed & strong trusting in the Lord to Do Justly. Without, having to destroy the lives of relatives that did not suffer from such things & Now will forever have to deal with shame of a past in loved ones sin. People like Beth come across as narcissistic, far too many of these are being exposed decades later. When instead, they can accomplish their desire to be "Transparent" by letting their abuser remain anonymous. Yet sharing the Power of being able to overcome such horrible things through JESUS CHRIST ALONE!
@@richardburton-777 too bad your comment doesn’t get more likes…
I especially have a distaste in my mouth for her outing of the abuser. Great healing for her but shame for her siblings and mother ( if still alive) who haven’t begun to deal with that in their life yet… now all are outed. Very selfish indeed!
How exactly is it that Beth Moore “no longer lives according to the gospel”? Share with us the FACTS, oh wise and blameless one.
Thank you so so much Beth for telling us the truth to help us 💜
Your relationship with the Father comes through and your total reliance upon the Lord to get you through. I believe this is why you have shown such a strong heart and faith to so many because of your holding onto and clinging to our God, our Father.
Im so thankful for women like Beth, showing us how to stay with God and not believe in the evil but believe in the holiness and goodness of God. It is very hard to do but necessary.
@@hollikrebs and to stop the risk of others being harmed (go to police) and report. Too often church or forgiveness is a escape card for continued abusers. Police, no dilly dallying.
God abundantly BLESS Beth Moore!
Word about SBC protecting abusers instead of their victims! The Lord bless you sister for taking your (God's) stand. Much respect & love to you!!
Beth, I'm so sorry for your situation. I love you, as a sister in Christ. I had the honor to have been to your conference in Wisconsin it was beautiful ❤️. God bless you and your ministry and family ❤️
As a survivor of SA myself I pray for every sister in Christ to find their validation from Calvary alone. Jesus blood! Everything I could ever hope for or need has been supplied for me on the cross through the love of my savior Jesus Christ. If I daily remind myself or anyone else of anything less than my perfection in Christ alone, through His righteousness, I’m encouraging them to glory in their victimhood. I understand that the flesh desires gratification but we are DEAD to the flesh but alive to God, through our Lord. Therefore there is no condemnation that can touch those trusting in Christ alone.
Breaks my heart she’s had to endure so much 😢
I'm in tears already hearing it was your dad. I'm so sorry
As a broken hearted woman, hearing other women helps me know Im not alone.
God give the strength to get threw all this confusing and hatred I've received from other and keep my heart in a good place and my mind on you to get me threw all this I've lost so much I know your a mighty God to deliver me from all this disfunction in my life 🙏 Amen AMEN
My 1st Beth Moore Bible study taught me to pray, “LORD, speak to me through Your Word,” WHEN I opened my Bible to read. (I use KJV). I am grateful for THAT lesson.
Thank you Beth for sharing your story. Your book was such a witness to God's love and how He never leaves us or forsakes us.
God Bless you Beth Moore, thank you for loving God, above all.
He has and will continue to work through you to help set the captives free.
Her faith has been compromised according to the Word of God. Very sad…
President Trump should not be even mentioned in this video. He was not an abuser!
Christian liberals still attacking the greatest President this country had ever had in our lifetimes... really sad they feel the need to go after him... just like all the other worldly influencers.
@@youtube-Name111 This is the first of Trump paying off multiple young girl victims. What details do you have? Sources? Etc.
@@youtube-Name111 O and you know that as fact???
If you can’t recognize all the classic traits of a gaslighting, Narcissistic, pathological lying abuser as Trump than you probably were never abused or maybe you’re an enabler in deep denial.
I’m a Christian conservative who woke up to my own political idolatry- repenting.
Thank the Lord in 2016 He opened my eyes to the deception of the two party system and how we MUST vote for whomever the system vomits up- including Trump.
I tried to warn thousands of my conservative friends that Trump was a deception, a Trojan Horse; A Fox in the hen house, only to be attacked.
Discernment is lacking amongst those who profess Christ and as Gods word warns us- Many will be deceived.
@@Pablo19625 Again, can you please point me to where there is information on Trump paying off multiple young girls to hide his abuse of them? I really want to learn more about this but I can't seem to find anything. I don't want to be deceived, so any information you have to expose this would be wonderful.
God willing ~ Beth could connect w/Joyce Meyers in a huge way ~~~ towards the healing of countless women
God bless you Beth Moore. My family is going through something similar, but my husband and I are refusing to hide or protect the abuser. We have been ostracized by other family members, but this generational curse stops here. May your message lead others to freedom. May they know that there is no shame or guilt. That they are so valuable and loved! There really is total freedom through the blood of Jesus. I believe for every victim of sexually abuse, even if you don't believe for yourself! I've seen it with my own eyes.
I’m reading this book currently. I would never have imagined she would have had this problem. It’s good to know there aren’t any perfect people.
Beth, I am so sorry for what you went through. You are a beautiful, sweet Christian woman. I look up to you, and even more since hearing/watching this. I will ask God to help heal your wounds.
I love Beth Moore because she is real and stands up for what is right. She is a real woman of God who carries her cross with grace.
My abuser was my stepdad. I think the reason I survived as “well” as I did, (I am referring to not turning to drugs or alcohol) is because I was saved at 9 years old. The abuse began when I was about 8 until 12 or so. My mom found out. Did nothing. Forgot about it. She found out again. Did nothing. Forgot about it. Repeatedly. Then after she passed I found a nasty letter she had written 10 years prior about me and some others; mostly me, and accusing me and my stepdad of being in love. I was 61 when I found the letter. My stepdad was a career military man and a pillar of the community. He taught Sunday school and was the church clerk. I couldn’t bear to hear him teach because I knew how mean he was at home. And somehow, I did still love him as a dad. He was the only dad I ever really knew for 50 years. My bio dad was kinda in and out. I told people over the years about the abuse and they either didn’t care or didn’t know how to help. Years ago, there wasn’t help so readily available.
I have a new respect for Beth. We never know what someone has been thru. I don’t agree with women preachers because that’s what the Bible says. But she has my respect.
*_Luke 2:36-38, Acts 2:16-21, Acts 21:8-9_* - all women prophets.
... *_AND_* these *_WOMEN_* are not just prophesying to *_OTHER WOMEN._*
There is always more to what we *_think we see in the Bible._* I know about the other verses in question, but make no mistake, *_God uses women in ministry._* Plus: in Christ, there is neither male or female, bond or free, Jew or Greek. We are all ONE in Christ *(Gal **3:28**).*
Ask God to clarify, but let this begin to put this division to rest.
Women are 50% OF THE BODY OF CHRIST! PERIODT! Women are gifted and NEEDED as much as the men.
I am so sorry you weren’t protected it is a silent life sentence x thank GOD for JESUS 🇬🇧
@@justfelicia6671 of course women are equal but we have different roles. Women prophets ate fine but teaching men is not (and I'm a woman!). Memorize I Timothy 2:12. ALL scripture is inspired by the Holy Spirit. There's a reason God says only men are to teach over men. Most men had bad, absent or so so father figures. They need godly male role models. Men grow from learning under a man. Men who grew up without fathers especially, they have a void and they've been taught by women their entire lives. They need to see a godly role model (often their first role model is their Pastor). Gifted women teach women, who need help more than ever in this crazy world. Let the men lead ladies!
@@kcreagan9799 Rubbish.
I’m sorry your mother didn’t protect you. I have heard other women have similar stories and it’s heart breaking
I like that she also recognized her husband as a victim of his bipolar disorder. She recognizes that this isn’t something that he chose not something he chooses for her. How compassionate and gracious of her.
Beth Moore was my friend. I attended many of her Sunday School sessions at !st Baptist Church in Houston. She is a great Bible teacher and a lovely, caring lady. I will always think of her with great fondness.
Thank you Lord for my righteous, safe father. I told him before he passed that the reason I trusted God as my heavenly Father was because I always trusted him as my earthly Father.
She sheltered her father her entire life , but calls out other people. She has become woke and likes notoriety to much. When she aligned with Alyssa Milano & Hollywood and insulted that poor kid from Kentucky that was called a racist I lost all respect for her. Sadly, not the same Beth I knew 20 years ago.
She has become a product. She's changed. I don't follow her. But, feel sad about her abuse.
Yes, sadly, the cultural "norms" have crept into our churches and leaders. Sad. I walked away from her teaching for the same reasons. People need to think and reason for themselves not just follow the crowd, even if it's Christian.
Also, it's always about her. She can't teach without it becoming about her.
@Candice C alot of times we can all get off track and go down paths, God does not want us on. The best thing to do is pray for her to seek him and his will for her. I want to read her book. Although I know there are things she is doing, that is not of God. Let God show her those things and pray for her to let God lead her back. The same with other women. Joyce Meyer is another example. I feel she has believed things and gone off in alot of ways but her story of healing from sexual abuse helped me in so many ways. Pray for them! God will restore!
I am also sad that she was abused, but why tell this story now? If her goal has always been to share God’s word openly and honestly to help others grow in knowledge and grace, why hide this important fact that shaped her into who she is now. In her early writings, I admired her..as time went on, she showed herself as worldly, loving monetary gain, worrying more about her appearance than her teachings. Flashing her designer handbags and clothes while encouraging her audience to “give” to her “ministry”. She is FAKE. She satisfies itching ears as she grows her bank account.
Beth, keep on preaching the truth. May Our good Lord continue guiding you. He is your answer and protector. Blessings
Thank God Beth shared her story. She's an inspiration.

What a blessing, teacher, and role model she has been to me and so many others.
I have several of Beth’s books and studied her Bible studies. Love her!
I grew up in a home that did not feel safe too. Too many children live like that - the scars heal over but never really go away.
God Bless you Beth Moore 🙏 ❤️ 🕊 ✝️
I thank God for Beth Moore! ❤ Thank you for speaking up!
Sister needs to take a break.
Wow. What a beacon she will be for other women and men who have been abused. Total respect.
I love her ministry, she is transparent and has a way of touching the soul... whatever they want to say...she impacted my life and the life of my beautiful daughter in law when we attended a Bible study at my daughter in law's church years ago. Stay strong woman of God! Love and prayers 🙏❤️🙏
Dear Beth, YOUR BIBLE STUDIES MEANT EVERYTHING TO ME. This complicated place of life, needs GODS WISDOM TO NAVIGATE THROUGH. My sister was my protector. Only has the years went by did I understand what God pulled her out of.
Thank you, Beth, for the life you have lived and for showing all of us we can overcome through faith. God bless you and your work for Him. (And thank you for taking a stand for what is right for our country and the people of God)
Why didn't she speak out about Biden? And his abuse with his daughter
no kidding... abuse with REAL PROOF
Agree!
Bingo
I agree. trump's was just guy talk but Biden is in front of us all the time with the way he touches kids & their reactions.but there really is a problem with sexual abuse that's covered up & I think it's going to be uncovered soon.
EXACTLY! Isn’t she a Bill Clinton fan as well? No discernment, probably looking more at his demeanor than behavior, Joe and Bill come across softer/ worse known behavior.
Good for you Beth. I have a new respect for you dear lady❤ I feel what you went through as a child. I was abused as well but not by my Dad. Gosh my heart breaks for all you’ve been through. It doesn’t seem fair, and yet God knew, what had happened. It must’ve crushed his heart. You are such a strong lady, and when the final judgement comes, you will definitely receive a warm embrace by your Savior. You belong to him, and are safe now. This revival that has come upon the youth, it is a time for you to shine, to help heal and raise up new leaders. Bless you Beth Moore.
God bless you Beth. I’m so sorry what you have endured. I was also abused as a child but kept it inside until I was 59. Many men never disclose it. I have lost so much but Jesus had big plans for me. And I know now that He had His hand on me the whole time. Thank you Jesus!
Such a powerful testimony. Thank you for your courage!
Girl thought the Baptist group she needed-nahhhh God is more than enough share your testimony it’s the true call❤

Thank you Beth for your transparency and honesty. I admire your faith in God and hope to have that some day, and the forgiveness that's so hard to come by.
We LOVE YOU BETH MOORE ❤ ALWAYS HAVE ALWAYS WILL ... Thank You for fighting the Good Fight... Truly God Loves You Beyond Measure 💞🙌🥰💞
Well said! They shelter the abuser as if boundaries weren't crossed!! WTW!?!? Bravo Beth!! God continues to use you no matter how many books were returned! God's got this!!💕
Beth, you are an amazing and wonderful women! Your story reminds us of the quote, "Speak the truth even if your voice shakes." Thank heaven for people like you who are not afraid to speak the truth!
Thank you Beth for loving Jesus and helping me to love Him more. Thank you for being a champion for women! I thank God for you!
I don't understand why churches would reject a testimony that would help others b healed and set free!!! It's RELIGION that does that....NOT TRUE FOLLOWERS OF JESUS CHRIST!! GOD BLESS U FOR STAYING N UR OWN LANE AND DOING WHAT FATHER GOD HAS HAD U DO!!!
God will be the judge! We need to be led by the spirit of God for ourselves! God help us all as we call out to Him and believe his word❤️🙏🏻💯
This is why I unsubscribed to this channel….. Beth moore is a liberal Christian… and CBN overlooks this.
But a Christian.
You can't be of God and of the world.
Liberal and Christian are not the same. Liberals are for abortions and LGBT rights. Not a Christian.
CBN is lost , promoting the jab.
So you are saying there should be only one kind of Christian and I'm guessing you think you are one of those.
Beth, thank you. Thank you for your honesty, the truths you share. Praying for you.
Her dad too? Just like Joyce😭😭may God continually heal her daughters.
Love you Beth. 💝
Seeing you in person was surreal, due to all your video Bible teachings. Thank you.
I just wanted to say to you, I have been involved in your Bible studies for years. I am so so sorry for your problems with John MacArthur and the Baptist Association. I know you are a woman of God. And God has certainly anointed you for your calling. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Courageous testimony. Persevere. ❤️🕊🙏
Beth is amazing! I was also a victim of abuse by both parents and many others! Beth and her study Breaking Free to name one of many has impacted my life! Openness and Oneness in the Spirit of God is Our testimony! True Worshippers will worship the Lord in Spirit and Truth! By our testimony and the Blood of the Lamb we are free! Stand Strong sister Your Reward in Heaven is Great! Thank you Beth! ❤️
My Dear Beth, I am so sorry. It’s so difficult to believe that your Daddy did what he did. Yet, God saw it all and knew that He was going to be healing you to help others 😢A million blessings to you all who have been abused in one form or another. We must choose to forgive our perpetrators for our own sakes. May God’s loving healing hand be upon you all.♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Time for deliverance Beth. Its is 2023 and I heard about this 20 years ago. I feel like your manipulating emotions. Time for deliverance. Your husband would benefit too. Freedom is waiting.
It was a sin to expose Noah's nakedness publicly and it's still a sin today! We are to honor our mother and our father even if it hurts! She's profiting from exposing publicly her father's nakedness.
@@roxannemiracle8353 what?? So keep their secrets? Or crimes?
@@roxannemiracle8353 you are complete wrong!
I love you so much my sister! Proud that you stand for JESUS, no matter what and to see your beauty and the unconditional grace and mercy of Jesus Christ!
Shame on the "Christian heresy hunters" who rejected Beth and attacked her and Joyce Meyer for getting together on some broadcasts. They didn't know what she was going through and never will. God bless her.
Thank you Beth for your testimony and for your teachings
She always points to the goodness of God ❤ Thank you Beth Moore❤
