About the Author

Known for presenting the Scripture in living color, Christian speaker, author, and ministry leader Beth Moore brings joy and excitement in Christ to life through words. Her deep love for the Savior is obvious; her style of speaking electric. She loves the Lord, loves to laugh, and loves to be with His people.

Beth first realized God was seizing her future for full-time ministry at the age of 18. She conceded all rights to the Lord she had loved since childhood. Being confident of God's calling on her life, she finished her degree at Southwest Texas State University where she met and married Keith Moore.

In the years that followed, Beth served the Lord by teaching Mothers Day Out, speaking at women s luncheons, retreats, and seminars, leading Christian aerobics, and teaching Sunday School. At the request of her first Bible study class, she wrote daily homework on the Old Testament Tabernacle. That material later became Beth s first published Bible study, A Woman s Heart, God s Dwelling Place. Ten Bible studies and numerous books have followed. Beth speaks at conferences all over the United States and enjoys getting to serve women of every age and denomination. She is passionate about women knowing and loving the Word of God, which she says is life out of the pit for her.

Beth and Keith praise God for 28 years of marriage. They enjoy traveling, hiking, drinking coffee on the back porch, eating Mexican food, making each other laugh, and being grandparents. The Moores live in Houston, Texas, with their dogs, Beanie and Sunny. They have two adult daughters, Amanda and Melissa. Amanda and her husband, Curtis, serve at a church in the Dallas area and have an 18 month old son named Jackson. Melissa, who shares her mother s appreciation for original languages, recently received her Master s degree in Biblical exegesis. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspired Bible study!, April 3, 2002

This review is from: A Woman's Heart: God's Dwelling Place (Paperback)

I admit I was skeptical before I started this study. It focuses primarily on the construction of tabernacle --- one of the parts of the Bible I have neglected, along with the "begats" of the New Testament. However, Beth Moore brings an inspired understanding to this subject which I never imagined possible. There are an amazing number of correlations with the New Testament, especially in the sacrificial life and death of Christ. She also draws meaningful comparisons between the Old Testament tabernacle and our lives, as the tabernacle of God now dwells within us. She delves into the original Hebrew and Greek texts to bring a much deeper meaning to scripture. If you have done some of her other studies, the daily homework in this one will take you a little longer than usual, possibly because this was the first study she wrote. That being said, it is a wonderful study. I HIGHLY recommend you also view the video tape series along with the workbook. Although Beth is a Southern Baptist, her studies are truly ecumenical. At my Presbyterian (PCUSA) church, we are about to start our fifth Beth Moore study. We have Presbyterians, Methodists, Baptists and Episcopalians in our group, all of whom love her Bible studies!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Worth Study, October 10, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: A Woman's Heart: God's Dwelling Place (Paperback)

As a participant in the study of "A Woman's Heart: God's Dwelling Place", I can tell you that Beth Moore's writings have truly been inspired by God. Mrs. Moore's study places in lay terms how God sought to establish the tabernacle and dwell among His people. She calls attention to things you may have read multiple times since childhood but have never realized the significance of it or how it applies to your life. Mrs. Moore's obvious knowledge and understanding of the subject allows her to take the reader on a perceptual journey into the Old Testament times and into the depth of the study so vividly that you are left truly inspired and motivated to study even more. This study book consists of 10 weekly lessons with each one containing 5 daily lessons. Once you finish the book, you will be making plans to get started on another one of her study books. This book is an excellent tool for an individual Bible study or maybe as part of a group.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Revelation of God's Precious Truths, November 26, 2001

By 

Beth (NJ) - See all my reviews

This review is from: A Woman's Heart: God's Dwelling Place (Paperback)

This is the first study I've ever done by Beth Moore and it is absolutely wonderful. God truly reveals the precious treasures of His word through Beth's writings. This specific study on the Old Testament Tabernacle is particularly fascinating because of the parallels it holds to the New Covenant in Christ. Going into this study I did not expect to be so thrilled to learn about the Ark and its dwelling, but through this study I am understanding that everything in the Old Testament forshadows God's promises in the New Testament. And all God's promises in the Old Testament are fulfilled in Christ. My eyes have been opened tremendously to the LORD through this beautiful study and I can definitely say I see growth in my walk. I have a heart to know God more and more since doing this study and learning about His glorious truths. I highly recommend it!!
