Don’t Be Mad at Beth Moore For Speaking Out About Sexual Assault

Beth Moore, the tiny blonde mom who has become a Bible study giant, has long been loved by Christian women. Few Bible teachers are able to point us to Christ the way Moore does, with frankness and no-nonsense hard truths tied to really relatable stories to help get her message across. That message has been unfailingly one of dependence on Christ.

However, Moore has added a little bit of extra to her message the past couple of years. I think it should be pointed out that although Beth still spends like 99% of her time exclusively pointing us all to Jesus, her comments the past couple of years and even as recently as last week about sexual assault should not be discounted—and they certainly do not point us away from Christ.. I have to tell you, I really appreciate her speaking out about her non-tolerance for violence against women, and sharing the fact that she herself was a victim of sexual abuse as a child.
