- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Beth Moore tackles the topic of insecurity in women, and apparently it's almost a universal problem. She also briefly discusses the issue among men, too, and that to me was one of the most interesting chapters of the book. Yes, men do feel insecure, and, no, they do not like it when women are trapped in feelings of insecurity. Moore's remedy is pretty basic: Trust God. She has a very long and a much shorter prayer that can be prayed when insecurity threatens to get us down. Her research revealed that sensitive women are also more likely to be insecure women so it's not altogether a bad thing. However, since insecurity can truly cripple a woman's life, this seems like a really timely book. It also has some very humorous moments in it! Enjoy!

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Beth Moore’s So Long Insecurity: You’ve been a bad friend to us is amazing! I had the opportunity to read this as a book study and the response was phenomenal. Beth Moore has created a book to free women from the insecurity trap that we wrap ourselves into. Through her own experiences and the experiences of other women Moore has helped with rediscovering yourself through God’s eyes and not the insecurities that we have created. This book was very informative and a good read, I feel that the 30 plus generation will get a lot more out of this book however. As a twenty something it is hard to relate to parts of this book. It was an eye opener to see what insecurities may arise in the future and to hear about other women’s perspectives on these issues compared to how the younger generation views the same problems.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Like many of us, Beth Moore's struggle with insecurity began at an early age. Tragically, she was a victim of childhood molestation, as well as a product of an unstable home. Matters were not helped by her buck teeth and glasses – Satan, it would seem, lacked no shortage of ammunition with which to attack her. As an adult, Beth recognized her insecurities but felt too helpless and overwhelmed to confront them. Until one day, she got mad...mad at the lies she had believed and mad at the lies she saw other women believing. She,.in fact, was “seriously ticked....peeved....irrationally irritated” - and ready to do something about it. She prayerfully began to explore her own insecurities, seeking to know why she had them, digging all the way down to the root causes, and allowing God to show her how to yank those suckers right out....for good. In her book, Beth takes us along for her wild ride of discovery, talking to us frankly, firmly and often hilariously. Not everyone will appreciate her conversational style and sense of humor, but I think there are few women who will not identify with her and recognize themselves between the pages of this book.In the end, Beth Moore has not written a self-help book, but a God-help book. We are far too messed up to fix ourselves, but through the Word and the power of the Holy Spirit, we can find the security we desperately long for. Beth tells us that it is “our God-given right to be secure”....and when we find that security in Him, nothing – and no one – can take it away.
