Women of Faith
So, who's going to be at the pre-conference in Phoenix? Bethie and half of our girls are heading out today.
We have something kind of cool going on at LPM right now. I can't really share details, but please pray for my mom and dad and our leadership to be wise and to know God's will.
To end this very random post, my Wising Up group finished last night. (We skipped the three sessions on marriage and motherhood since most of the girls in my group are only 18 or 19.) We had a really enjoyable semester together. I know I am biased, but I loved the sessions. I am ready to do a homework study again next semester. Thankfully, there's a new one out! More to come on that...

I pray for the Lord to anoint Beth as she teaches our dear siestas in Phoenix. Lord, please protect them and give them travel mercies.
Lord pour out Your wisdom, discernment, and clarity on the Moores and the staff as they make decisions. Give them confirmations as needed and close the doors that need to be closed.
Please bless Amanda and her family as well as Melissa.
Thank You for the work they all do to advance the Kingdom here on earth. In Jesus' Name I pray. Amen.

some of the women from my church will be going, but I unfortunately did not have the money and was not meant to go so I will be be there. but I'm praying that ladies from my church that do go have a wonderful time and that encourages and teaches them so much that they can turn around and share with me and make it feel like I was there!
oh man. Now my curiousity is just killing me.
Amanda,
Excited about what is going on and I will be praying for the LPM, your mom, dad and the staff. Thanks for all that you do.

Girl - they need the marriage and motherhood BEFORE they get to that point! Pave the way! Had my daughter there for those and she has now also just finished Esther because of those exact sessions! She said I have to have more wisdom for this marriage and soon to be mom thing. Just an encouragement to prepare non-married and non-moms in advance!
Have a great time away . . . will be praying as you requested. Tell Beth that the "hat" was great! Especially with a cuppa watching an old flick with my man. Kudos!
I whent to the pre conf in denver! it was amazing! ill be prayind for ALL of you!
Congratulations on a job well done and finishing strong! I called LPM yesterday to see how Beth felt about finishing on Tuesday and how it went. Sounds like it was real blessing! The gal I spoke to said she cried as it was over! I am so thankful for all of you! AJ you are such a blessing to all us siestas! Praise God for your whole family, and have a wonderful Thanksgiving! Be safe, take care of your dear family, and know that you are very dearly loved!
God Bless you all-

My group is finishing up Wising Up as well, we have 3 left to do. It has been awesome and hopefully we are wiser, but like you I am ready for the homework! I can't wait to study Esther! God Bless you and your family this Thanksgiving... you have much to be thankful for and so do I! I'll be praying for LPM. Blessings!
I am so excited and ready to filled with the Word this Friday in PHX...I have just been diagnosed with cancer for the third time. I have been feeling real numb in my walk with the Lord,believing in His sovreignty and dealing with real life. It gets tough. So with that said, YES, I am ready for Beth and the crew to come and bless my (our) socks off...Amen !!
Hi Amanda,
I will join you in prayer for your parents, and for all those in leadership at LPM.
We have 2 more sessions in our Wising Up discipleship class. Our class is made up primarily of married women so we are watching the entire 12 weeks. God has been awesome. He has spoken so clearly to our hearts in this study. We thank Him for His precious servant and teacher, our Beth.
Strangely enough, I think we are ready for some homework as well.
Next semester, we will re-visit Living Beyond Yourself and a second group will study, A Journey Through the Psalms of Ascent. I am so looking forward to it.
You all have fun in the mountains next week. I pray it will be a time of relaxation and refreshment for each of you.
Hugs
Darn, darn, darn. I had everything set and packed to go, until things turn a turn health-wise, again.
So, maybe next year ...
Amanda...
Wish I would be going to warm and lovely Phoenix, but I am not. Lifting up the event though. May His glory shine and everyone be blessed more than they think possible!
Please know that there are so many of us that will pray for your most precious family. We feel like a part of your family and take very seriously what God is doing in your lives. I'll pray for wisdom, discernment, and His presence to be all there is! :)
Much love to you all.
Blessings~

why skip the marriage and motherhood sessions? just wondering...those are the very ones I have on my christmas wish list!! Looking forward to hearing the 'cool changes' to LPM!!
Southern Utah siestas will be there! Praying for safety for all.
I was just visiting the Lifeway website and didn't realize the new Bible study was out! I loved watching the video samples and was hugely and pleasantly surprised by the addition of music to the sessions! How awesome is that??!! It was also neat seeing Ms.Beth on location because I remember praying for her during that trip. I can't wait for our church to do this study and am so hungry and excited for a fresh new word from the Psalms!
Kelli in Ohio
I am!
The bus leaves the church parking lot today at 5:30 PM sharp! Be there - or be out of luck! Ha!
I am working like a mad woman to get my sub-plans all laid out and ready for tomorrow. Plus, get all my Pilgrims and Native American Indians dressed and ready for Thanksgiving Feast in the cafeteria. BUSY day!

This isn't a blog entry, this is a teaser!!! =) Can't wait for you to fill us in on details! =)
Can't share details, Amanda? WHAT!!!!
Lifting LPM in prayer over this "What's cool" .. "Lord, provide wisdom, discernment, and a whole bunch of Hallelujah's as you continue to make Yourself know in their decision making! In Jesus' precious Name .. Amen"

Currently doing the online "Believing God!" study (Week 2)
Hey Amanda and LPM Staff,
I pray for Gods will to be done in that situation. I have a special request for a new product. I'm surprised there isn't one yet, I know it will be soon to come out, every year I look for one and end up buying Jonie Erikson Tada's planner. A Beth Moore or LPM daily planner (I know there is the Whispers of Hope "planner" but you have to fill it in yourself)
I'm talking about a 2008 daily planner with devotions etc... they would sell like hot cakes!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow! Go Phoenix. Right about now I wish I lived in the south west... not the north east!!
I don't know what "cool" means... whether it is positive or negative I will commit the situation with LPM to prayer. Thank you for involving me and everyone else that reads the blog.
Congrats on finishing your study. Onward and Upward.
Nope not going to that, but sure wish I could have.I will be praying for them & LP. Am praying for safe trip there & back as I am for your going for Thanksgiving there & back. To have agreat time & enjoy the food. God bless lvoe sister in Christ Victoria
I am going!!! I cannot wait! I am driving one of our church vans up from Tucson, we have two van loads of ladies and we are so jazzed!
I am a long time fan of and participant in Beth Moore Studies. I got to attend the Living Proof Conference last Decemeber, didn't think I would be able to go to this one and so I resigned myself to not going. Praise God!! He had a better plan in mind, and I am going!!
I only recently found your blog and have been tuning in whenever I can. It is such a blessing and and encouragement to know you all care about all of us so much. Praying for you all and LPM to have peace, and expectant antispation for what the Lord is doing.
Oops! I guess I should have made my reason for skipping the marriage, sex, and motherhood sessions more clear. My group consists of college students and most of them are only freshmen and sophomores. I also felt it was beneficial to my girls to end before Thanksgiving so that they can concentrate on their finals when they get back.
Will be praying...
Just got " Stepping Up" audiobook in the mail:)
Can't wait to listen to it!!!!
angie
I will be there! I am going with my mom, my sister and my mother in law! I am so excited to hear what word Beth has to share with us! I am still remembering her words from last year about our anointing. I am especially excited to share this day with my family. My mom does not attend events like this very often (if ever!) and so I can't wait to share the day and the learning with her.
In addition the ladies from our church will be there and I hope that God uses this time to refresh them and prepare them for the year ahead. Our beloved Pastor is retiring in January and we have a long year ahead of us.
Can't wait until tomorrow! I better go pick out what to wear!
Aww we have 2 more sessions on Wising Up! It has been so good. Also, I am loving Stepping Up and I highly recommend it!!! I can't wait to hear what is going on at LPM!!! Much love and prayer!
That's not fair! Not telling us about the new study or what else is going on at LPM. You're basically blogging to not tell us a lot! Won't be in Phoenix, but I just found out that the ladies from my church will be going to the Living Proof Live conference in Boise, ID May 16 and 17. I was going to go on my own but looks like I won't have to now! I know that's a while from now, but I just found out they're planning to go as a group today, so I'm excited.
Ooh...not going, but wanna go!
So, don't know if ya'll ever get tagged for the memes that fly around blogland...but YOU'RE IT if you want to share seven weird/random things about yourself. Inquiring minds want to know...
Amanda!
How dare you tease us like that! You know we will not cannot rest!
Praying for Phoenix!
Happy Thanksgiving
Hey Amanda, I was at the pre-conference in Denver in Sept. and would love to have a copy of the commissioning that we said at the end of the day. Do you have that still? It really meant something special to the gals I went with. You girls rock and we are thankful for L.P.
Lisa
Ok, I'm just guessing but I think this teaser might have something to do with couples or men...
Holy Father, we do love You and Your Creator power. It is just beyond my ability to think like You. And mercy, but I am so glad that You are like You are. My spirit is just a-tingle thinking about what YOUR plans are for this anointed group! Oh, that's what I want for my life and for all my spiritual family, let us all be a-tingle with Your plans created especially for us! Bless Beth with words You give her to speak over this congregation. Bless this ministry to set sail...yes, Father, set sail. Give them the wind in their sails as You guide them to the destination You already have in Your sight. Oh, You are our Blessing! In Jesus Name. Amen.
I had two tickets for Beth's pre-conference in Phoenix but had to give them up due to my daughter needing me here in Tucson to support her as she auditions for Christian Youth Theater.
My dear bible study sisters from behind the screen in Jenni's living room will be there!! I hope that everyone in attendance will be blessed by the lesson!
Hmm...does your prayer request have anything to do with women with great hair, cactus and Bruegger's Bagels? I may be way off base but am thinking back to something that Beth said while speaking at a LP conference in my state last December. I will pray that whatever is going on at LPM, that God will make his will PERFECTLY clear to every single person involved!
MY daughter and I will be at the pre-conference in Phoenix, having traveled today from the east coast to see Sweet Beth. Can't wait. We are celebrating our birthdays! Love and blessings to all!
Praying for the whole family and the family at LP, lifting our siesta's up to the throne !
Even though I'm curious I won't ask, God will open and close and reveal in His time !
Love you girls and of course guys too !
Jesus Chick NC
I'm the Kim B that said earlier in a comment that I wasn't going but that ladies from my church are going! Well!!!!! GOD IS GOOD! He worked out all the details and I will not be there tomorrow! I'm so stinkin' excited for what the Lord has in store for me, especially since I didn't think I was supposed to go and the Lord worked it out at the last minute. Now I know He has something for me there! Praise be to Him!
Praying for you all. Love you guys!
The Journey Continues~

We're going to the conference in the morning. Can hardly wait.
Hope to be in the front row.. haha
Just kidding... kind of...
hmmmm...we have lots of hair in texas, cactus, but no Bruegger's Bagels, only PANERA! here...so what could it be? You got our attention. Very curious---don't leave us hanging til after Christmas. Puh leez! Hmmmm? A brochure for Stepping Up arrived in the mail today---really nice jacket! We start Psalm of Ascents after Christmas...finishing up Breaking Free (for only 2nd time)---first time our Bible Study did it was like a decade ago and I couldn't BELIEVE what answers I wrote then, oh my! Very wonderful to witness up close what my wonderful beautiful God has done in my life over the past few years!Praying for Phoenix Deut 32: 2-4
Sweet Beth, may your teachings fall, your words descend like abundant rain on tender phoenix plants. For you will proclaim the Name of your Beautiful God. You will praise the Greatness of your Good God! He will be your Rock. His words in you are perfect for Phoenix.
You, your family, and the entire LPM are in my prayers as decisions are being made. I can't wait to see what's ahead!
I sure wish I was going to Phoenix this weekend, but I think I'm going to have to wait until next Aug. before I see Beth. :(
Reading some of the comments I thought...
I'm so excited that it worked out for Kim B to get to go this weekend to Phoenix afterall. I also want Jodi Dennis to know that I'm praying for her. I can't imagine hearing news of cancer for the third time. I pray she has a wonderful time and is blessed this weekend at the pre-conference.
God bless all,
Valerie
I will pray, you're so funny, you reminded me of when I tell my children, "I have something special for you. . . but can't tell you just yet. . ."
Will pray God's will. . .
Sounds interesting! Can't wait to see what God's up to. :)
I'm praying for this weekend and will begin to pray for wisdom for you all as you seek the Lord in this new thing.
Blessings
steph.
My curiosity is piqued! Now you've got to let us know what's going on as soon as you can! I ordered the Wising Up DVDs for Christmas and can't wait to hear all of them. (I already watched the first DVD! I was desperate for a word from Beth and boy, did I receive one! Had to do with leaving successfully. I'll say no more.
I got this in an email...and I hope it blesses you ladies...Ana C

I attended the pre-conference with Beth Moore and it was awesome. Six of us teachers took the day off from school and attended. We were blessed. The special song at the end was great...anyone know the title of the song???? Released from the shackles...
dance, sing.....
Lord I ask you to annoint Beth as she teaches. Father also bless my Sister for scarficing so much to give to us! In Jesus name I pray Amen.
Love ya'll

Hey Amanda! My dear friend Maria is at Women of Faith this weekend and I sent her a text that I was praying for her and for our Bethie. Well, she sent me one back saying that 'Beth danced to Shackles...and this sista can dance!' Any chance you can post that on the blog! Oh! Our freedom in Christ! How glorious! :)
I just got me 4 tickets to the Living Proof Live event in my great state of Minnesota! It's not until July...but I can't wait to see what God brings through Ms. Beth!
I am praying for LPL!
Would anyone be willing to pray for my friend. She's struggling with something and I'm very afraid for her. thanks siestas!
I was in Phoenix Friday and got such a blessing. Beth was super charged up and frankly wore me out! I had already been in Nashville the earlier part of the week for the National Women's Ministry Leadership Forum and then flew straight to Phoenix for more women, women, women! I have seen and heard everyone in women's ministry this week! Not only that, I feel like Travis has personally accompanied me musically throughout this week. What a treat... Great job Beth. Your messages spoke straight to me and I am grateful.
I have prayed for the WOF conference constantly since Thursday God even woke me up on Friday to pray (I went to bed at 8pm b/c I have been sick).
I look forward to the update.
Praying for wisdom in the area of leadership at LPM :)
Much love
Kim
I can't wait for the next study! And your other exciting news.
Amanda,
I am also currently doing the Wising Up series. It is perfect for women who are at a very busy time in their lives and don't have time to do homework. I miss the homework but it has been a great study. We have four weeks to go.
I've been doing the Jesus 90 day devotional and I think of you doing it too. It is a good time with God, isn't it?
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving, Amanda. Will you be with your folks and Melissa, or with Curt's parents, or just the 3 of you? I'm thankful for you, Siesta!!
So...I logged on for a little Siesta nightcap, to bring a peaceful end to a not very peaceful Sabbath...and now, I'm going to be up all night trying to determine what big hair, cactus plants, out-of-state bagels, and LPM could possibly have in common.
I'll be praying for our sweet Jesus to give you discernment and to cover the entire situation with his presence and power. And if it is His will, to bring it to closure quickly, so Beth can rest and you can spill the beans to your Siestas.
xoxo
hi amanda-at revolve with my girls in ptld fri night-prayd for "bethie" & gals in phx. thought what a night...God & his girls!
lovin life in Him!lisa
I had seen LP Live event last Dec in PHX. and that was my first time seeing Beth live. I was blessed to see her and the team at the pre-conference. After all the studies I've done with Beth I could really tell the LORD was speaking something so exciting to her! She was PASSIONATE and that got my attention so I really listened! I asked God to plant those seeds in my heart and to keep me from just eating them!
I felt humbled to go and be served in such power and love. I give thanks to the whole LP team and the others with the Woemen of Faith conferene. It was WONDERFUL!!
Can't wait to hear what's up. I will be praying for wisdom and vision! I missed Phoenix, but I know Beth loves us out here in Arizona, so she'll be back! Hee hee! Julie B. Tucson, Arizona
I was blessed to be able to go to Phoenix all the way from NC (along with my mom who is my closest sister-in-Christ)! I had never seen Beth live before... what a blast! She has more energy than I have words to describe! We were so truly blessed by the Lord through Beth's teaching - and of course - through Travis & gang's singing... WOW! Thanks to all the LPM team for sacrificing your time and talent to the Lord for His use in the ways that He chooses! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
Amy - Kings Mountain, NC
Beth,
Here's wishing you and all the Moore's a brimming over Thanksgiving! We all love you out here in Blogland.
THE JOURNEY CONTINUES ~

I am keeping all in DAILY prayer!
The HOLY SPIRIT has had your entire family on my heart lately!
Enjoy that precious Jackson as you eat a bountiful harvest on this day of Thanksgiving.

I was in Phoenix for the pre-conf. I flew in from the Los Angeles CA area to spend the day with Beth.This was my first experience of Beth in person, I was SO blessed by the teaching. BTW, she was so on fire, she actually looks CALM in the videos! I just finished the updated version of "A Woman's Heart...God's dwelling place" I will NEVER look at the tabernacle the same way again!
Beth is one amazing teacher! I got so much out of her teaching Friday, WOW!
Thank you Thank you for Beth and her ministry to women. I am Blessed!
And, dancing to "Shakles"....it was a hoot. Who knew a Bible Class could be so much fun!
I became a Christian April 28 2002, I have studied under Beth since then. God has used her to UNDO so much bad theology, I truely am blessed. I cant wait for the next study!
