Beth Moore Bible Studies

Call me clueless, but gender studies baffle me. Why do I need a "girls' eye view" of the law and the gospel? Squishy theology.
Below, completely unedited is a review of a Beth Moore Bible study. I think the review says it all. Who can resist? It's just all about spiritual passion (yawn), and having this wonderful role model (Beth of course being the latest and greatest) to live up to, feel heartfelt about, follow and gush over. And Christ is where? Forget the cross.. yucky, too objective!. Meanwhile women never need to grow up, instead they emote or perform with increasing skill. Yes, I know we are truly more emotional, yet emotional or not, God's goal is not to make us successful, and where else do girl studies go? Fine wine versus soda pop.
I have more in common with my confused friends (or Catholics for some reason) than with self-righteous, smug evangelical types... we sinners aren't always making pretty with each other. Yet embracing cynicism is my sin.
Self-righteousness in women's studies ... "little methods and formulas" - advance hell-hot notions. It is apostasy, in spite of "results".
Forgiven in Christ,

Three Reasons you liked it:
1) Beth is ON FIRE in this study unlike any others I've seen her do.
2) She challenges your mindset and encourages to pay attention to what's around you.
3) She encourages you to spend time in the WORD and pray daily the LORD will impart to you supernatural wisdom and understanding.
