Get Out of That Pit by Beth Moore (2007, Hardcover)

Beth is always worth reading and this book is no exception. She details what a pit is (a miserable place in your life where you feel stuck, unable to stand,and you've lost your vision), how we get there (fell, got pushed, slid in gradually), and how to get out:look to God alone to lift you out as you cry out for His help, confess your part in the mess and consent to having Him remove you His way. She's practical and encouraging and pulls no punches. Almost anyone who has ever breathed will identify with what she says. Buy one for yourself and one for another struggling pit-dweller: God wants to lift us out of the pit if we'll let Him.

This book is great for anyone who is struggling with guilt. You may caused the guilt or had no control of the guilt. It's a great, up lifting read that will encourage anyone!

I bought this book because a friend recommended it while I was going through some tough times of betrayal. I really like the practical advice Beth Moore gives.
There are three ways to get in a pit: thrown in, slip in and jump in. I could see how each one has happened to me over the course of my life. The book really changed my way of thinking. I finally feel that God has delivered me: I am standing up on the rock. She uses Psalm 40:1-3 as her Scripture reference point for being in a pit and being delivered. I did find some of her personal stories to be a bit lackluster, but not enough to turn me away from the message. Once I understood how much God loves me and wants me back, I was raring to go!
My copy is dog-eared, hi-lited and underlined. She has so many good points; I continue to re-read them. I highly recommend this book.

I have always loved Beth Moore and her Bible studies, but God has really spoken through her in this book! I think we can all relate to being in a pit of some kind during our life. This book helped me to focus on getting my mind and spirit out of the hole of despair and setting my feet upon the rock. Each day I think about the words she wrote and the scripture she used and it has helped me to move forward. I highly suggest this book if you are needing God to heal some wounds and to get you out of the darkness.

This book is great for discussions. We are reading this book for a biblestudy and it leads to great discussions. Beth Moore's books are easy to read and easy to understand. Everything seems so obvious when she explains it. I have learned a great deal from reading this book about how we try to make the pits we are in into homes - often times not wanting to leave them. Beth has made it easy to understand how we can escape our pits and move on with our lives.

I bought this book because my Women's Book Study Group at church is reading it. We read a chapter a week and then get together on Monday nights to discuss it. As with all of the Beth Moore books I have read and heard about ~ it is an awesome book. It is a powerful tool and you simply cannot walk away from this book not feeling like you have received a blessing from it! I recommend it to women of all ages, races and religions who have ever felt like they were stuck in a rut or just want to feel great about themselves again!!

I love this book. Talk about inspirational!!! It has everything a person needs; scriptures, advice, humor - a total all around help. If you are or ever have been in a pit; depressed, sad, in trouble, or down--this book will help. I even went through a "pit" while enthralled in this book. I know it really helped me. I have already loaned it to a good friend. If you haven't added this book to your library- don't waste another minute-pick up a copy today!!!
p.s this book was in excellemt condition!!!!

If you are a fan of Beth Moore's teachings and ministry, as usual you will love love love this book, and if you've never heard of Beth Moore, brace yourself because this book tells it like it is. As usual Beth dives deep into the power of God's Word and his promises in this book to help you realize if you're in a pit of despair, you can climb right out through God's word, promise and prayer, and yes even Christians can be a pit dweller. Beth Moore is real, honest and driven to preach God's word. As she tells you in the book, she too was a former "pit dweller", but no more! Beth Moore is uplifting, funny, and she's real.

I saw Beth Moore speak on this book at a simulcast event at my church a year or so ago. I went and purchased the book and was amazed at just how she spoke directly to my life at that moment in time. The book helped me get out of my pits of doubt, discourgement, and unforgiveness. I am now free to allow God to have power over my life. I stand on His word now, rather than the circumstances I see around me. If you are trying break the ties that bind you, this is the book to read. It will truly set you free.

One of the most powerful books I've ever read. Reading Beth Moore's book is like sitting at your kitchen table talking to a trusted friend. She is not "preachy" or "churchy" - just REAL.
I suffer from clinical depression and anxiety. I didn't need to be told by well-meaning people that it was my fault for not having enough faith. I needed to hear someone real who had been there show what the Bible really said about it. I never paid attention to how many times the Bible talks about being in a pit and needing a Deliverer - and that you don't have to do anything WRONG to end up there. This book helped me begin to find my way back out of a deep depression when nothing else did.

I believe that everyone at sometime in their life will be put in a pit. Either they put themself there or other people put them there. Sometimes just this un-Godly world will throw us there.
I know a lot of Godly people that struggle day to day because of their pit. I was at one of our Beth Moore Bible study's and I noticed that one of the ladies had this book. She said she was going through a hard time and this book was a key point in guiding her down the right path and helping her get through this hard time.
I have worked with a lady for 3 years now. The things she faces on a daily bases we could not imagine. We stay after work many days to just talk and let her vent. I'm not a saint and I am a Christian in progress. So I try my best to give her Godly advice and scripture for her to read. But I thought what better gift to give her this Christmas then this book. If it can help Christian get out of their pit and help them with what they are struggling with then I has to help my friend. Especially when she feels the only safe-haven is her place of employment.
My hope with this book and through Beth Moore knowledge and experience that this will bring peace to my friends heart!

I have not had a chance to read this book yet but I have every intention on this being my next read.

way to go!!! everything was great on this end. i think i will get a lot out of the book. i love Beth Moore

Very Prompt in sending purchase I was just late in acknowledging it. The book was just as it was described. pj

It is a great book and easy to read. I bought it for my Summer Bible Study. It was delivered very fast.

Beth Moore is excellent writer, speaker, etc. Every thing I buy from her is excellent. I highly recomend this book, it has short chapters, easy read. I bought it because some friends are doing a book club and this is the book we are reading and discussing.

I love anything that Beth Moore does. She is a godly woman, a woman of faith that the Lord uses to ministers to ladies. I bought the book because I did not have it, plus it was a great buy. The book is one of the latest things Beth has done. I had recently went to a conference based on this book and wanted it for a future read.

Book was in excellent condition, would buy from this person again without hesitation....... Recvieved in a very timely matter. Responded to purchase very quickly.

I haven't not into it yet but my friend told me about it and she said it really opened her eyes. I can't wait for my learning experience!

I love the "plain" talk from someone who has been in the PIT.
The world is always calling sweetly from the PIT. Maybe with the guidelines from Ms. Moore and the living Word, we all can recognize and keep outof it.

I received my book in a timely manner and in excellent condition. i decided to buy from this seller because they had the lowest price. But the service was top notch!

I bought this book for a bible study gathering to study with other friends. Beth is right on target and makes you face what you have been trying hard for years to ignore. The discussion questions and application questions at the back are very probing. They are instrumental in making sure you take the words from the book and apply them to make the necessary and sometimes painful changes in your life.

I picked up a copy of this book at a local store, as I had read some of the author's other work. After reading just a few chapters, I decided several of my friends could benefit from reading it, so I made gifts of the copies purchased on ebay. I also purchased a copy of the DVD church study guide to share with my friends. I recommend this book to anyone who suffers from any level of depression, whether you admit it or not! God provides for all our needs, and looking to Him is the only way to find true peace. All we have to do is turn to our Creator to repair the damage we have done to His creation. The enemy (Satan) wants to keep us in the muddy pit, the valley of our lives. We can do him no harm when we dwell in the darkness of the pit. So, in Beth Moore's words: "Get Out Of That Pit"! Start living in the Light of the World and find peace in God's love. This Book is not a substitute for the Bible, and doesn't claim to be. It's just a reflection of one fine Christian lady's journey out of her own pit, using and claiming God's promises as a road map, in hopes that somehow her writing can help others can find their way back to God's will. This author has a writing style that keeps you interested and if you've ever gone through a Beth Moore Bible study, you can visualize her standing there, sharing her heart with a huge group but at the same time, you think she's only talking to you. Great personal witness from a great author.

Beth Moore is a wonderful inspiration. I love everything I can get my hands on of hers. This book is very encouraging and sheds light on situations in everyone's life.
