Perhaps one of the biggest issues all women face is their own insecurity. Beth Moore, one of today’s most admired and trusted Christian writers, wants women to be free from the insecurity trap. So Long, Insecurity will strike a chord with women everywhere, as Beth speaks truth into the lives of readers, showing them how to deal with their innermost fears, rediscover their God-given dignity, and develop a whole new perspective—a stronger sense of self.
Women of all ages and backgrounds will resonate with this message of security and discover truths that will free them emotionally and spiritually and lead them to a better life as they walk with God. Beth Moore, author of All My Knotted-Up Life and Chasing Vines, offers encouragement and biblical wisdom as she helps Christian women:
• Identify and overcome the areas of insecurity quietly sabotaging their relationships with friends, family, and God
• Build a strong foundation of confidence that’s grounded in Scripture—not just ego or effort
• Feel seen and understood in the face of everyday struggles
Single or married, young or old, this book is for you because you can be secure.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Prolific Bible teacher and women's ministry leader Moore (Get Out of That Pit) moves away from her characteristic dead-on expositions of scriptural principles in her newest; the topic is insecurity, and the content, she admits, is close to an autobiography. Moore, always transparent with her own personal struggles, is refreshingly so throughout this text. Readers will be chortling in laughter one moment and sucking air the next as Moore exposes the many faces of female insecurity. The author names and claims each one, then defuses every bit of power these nonsensical inner voices possess by countering their lies with God's truth. Women, no matter what their age, battle against advertising's siren call for unattainable physical perfection; the habit of making a man's love the ultimate validation; and the worldly definition of success as money, power, and status. Moore uses personal essays, women's true confessions, expressive prayers, and lots of commonsense suggestions to jar women out of their insecure rut. Readers will delve into this work and find themselves comfortably uncomfortable, and this is a very good thing.

As Beth so aptly points out...
Our SECURITY comes from the LORD,
Maker of Heaven & Earth!!!
TRUST in HIM.
Amazing journey
Wow! It was like reading a lot of my own life, thoughts, struggles and turmoil within these pages. I really appreciate the honesty that Beth Moore writes with and all the ways she opens her heart to share God's love, through Jesus, with us. I also thank her for the great tips and Scripture she provides to help in our moments of struggle. This is a great book for anyone that is battling with self-doubt and insecurity...to be reminded our security is not in ourselves but in who we are in Christ Jesus. Many thanks to Beth Moore for allowing God to use her so boldly and compassionately to help others, like myself, out with our daily battles, by pointing us right into the loving arms of our Lord Jesus. Lastly, I also love the added humor that she often writes with that helps to ease the pain of the process of growing form who we are into who God intended for us to be...
