So Beth Moore....W.O.W. That girlfriend be preachin'. LOVE her. Don't care that she is on DVD. She is so easy to listen to. So funny. So inspiring and real.
The bible study is an hour discussion and an hour DVD of Beth Moore. Then we have "homework" every week too.
Here are some great points Beth made in her talk today (I will try not to give the whole Megillah! lol):
1. The Book of Esther is unique because of it's total and complete absence of mentioning God's name. Instead of this being it's demise, this is it's lesson. God doesn't have to have His name ON IT to be IN IT.
2. God attends not only momentous events and people, but also to those that seem both mundane and trivial.
3. Nothing happens by chance. Coincidences are miracles in which God wants to remain anonymous! Nothing can happen to me by coincidence. God is in it!!
4. God will never leave me or forsake me. SO even during those times in life where I "don't feel Him" - HE IS THERE. Because His word claims it and His word is TRUTH. He will NEVER LEAVE ME OR FORSAKE ME.
5. God proclaims human responsibility. And so by doing that, it is possible that I can miss God's will in my life. BUT if I am seeking Him then God's will WILL find ME.
6. God will get His will for the world done with or without me. BUT God will not fulfill MY destiny without ME. So I need to SHOW UP!
Problems women face (according to random survey of 400 women):
1. Yielding (submitting)
2. Balancing life
3. Hormones
Weekly Scenario: It's tough being a woman in another woman's shadow.
Relevant Scripture:
Psalms 138:2
Romans 15:4
Hebrews 12:1
Ephesians 1:11
Philippians 2:13
