Beth Moore’s memoir is so touching and so funny. I laughed out loud and cried through most of it. Parts of her story are so like my own that I had to pause it to process it throughout. Listening to this on audio was healing and wonderful! I could begin it again right now.
I have not done a single study by Beth Moore, but I have had some respect for her for the last 7ish years, as she spoke out boldly about things few people in evangelical circles were speaking out about, at much personal expense. I have even more respect for her now after hearing her story. My soul is encouraged and I feel so seen and understood after spending this time with her. Such a tender and important (to me) memoir.

While it's impossible to exist in the evangelical world and not be aware of Beth Moore, I certainly was not familiar with her story. And I certainly wasn't expecting it to be so heartbreaking, so hopeful, and so dang beautifully written. Moore takes us through her childhood, growing up and young adult years, married and early family life, the development of her study and ministry, and the recent hardships in her former denomination of the SBC. I was brought to tears so many times. But what will stick with me from Beth Moore's story, as I'm sure was her intention and hope, is the incredible love of Christ.
