So amazing! I love how Moore makes the Old Testament so relevant by revealing the background and what things mean. I cannot stress enough how moved I was by this study. Maybe it's just where I am in my life, but it was almost surprising how the situations in which we find the patriarchs provide insight into my current experiences.
Nicole
this is my favorite study. The thing that stood out the most to me was how much they are just like us- keep messing up again and again- and they were God's chosen people. He gave them the covent and His promises and always fulfilled them no matter how little faith they had.
Lisa
This study takes you book by book through the lives of the Patriarchs in the old testament. Beth has a wonderful way of taking their lives applicable to us by looking their faults and strengths so we too might walk closer with God. One of my favorite studies by Beth.
Brenda
This was an excellent study of the old patriarchs from the Old Testament...Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. It really helped me to know these men and or their families. Beth Moore does it again!!
Maddie
Things you never would have thought of in the bible are in this book! Love, sacrifice, betrayal, fatherless children... She captures evrything,just like if you lived in the time of Jesus!
Keri Fosse
Excellent resource for understanding both the Patriarchs of the Christian faith and God Himself. I learned so much from this study and highly highly recommend it!
Chrissy
I loved learning about the names of God and why that was so incredibly important in Genesis. Great study.
Melissa Carney
This is an amazing Bible study that helps to completely understand the beginnings of God's people. Loved it!
Tammy Smith
Wonderful! If you have 1/2 a chance to be involved with The Patriarchs study...DO IT.
Paige
Wow wow wow!!!
This really brought Genesis to life
I fell in love with all the characters
Dana
This bible study is the first I ever did of Beth Moore's large selection. She has such a gift of explaining and teaching difficult topics and making them clear. Great study for the beginning bible scholar to the advanced scholar everyone will love this one. I totally recommend you read this one with a group and watch the coordinating videos.
Sara
This study is one of my favorites. As always, the study was thought-provoking and applicable in my life. Beth pulls in extra information that really helped tie together the events in the book of Genesis and connect
how they relate to our lives in current times.

This was my first small group study to lead. I enjoyed the study and learned a great deal. Beth is always so in depth that sometimes I wonder if I really get it....Would love to do the study again just to ensure that I really did get the full effect.

New 10 week bible study....
Setting this to "READ" because I know that I will get through the entire study. Looks like it's going to be another great bible study by Beth Moore......... Ready to start Week 2 tomorrow and have already learned so many things that I didn't know before!

This is my small group's current curriculum. We're watching the DVD along with discussing each unit. It's my first Beth Moore endeavor. While I find Moore to be corny/cheesey at times, the content and message are good. Will keep you updated.

Beth does not disappoint in this study, but then again she never does. This book is full of Godly lead research and many heart provoking questions that brings the bible alive in your own life. You can't do a Beth Moore study and not be changed in some way or another and often you don't know hwo they have changed your life until the study is over. I have never felt a connection to the charectors of the Old testiment to me it was just the old road you had to get through until you get to the part I...more

I have participated and taught these study several times. I think this is the best bible study for a you g or older Christian. It is the history of the bible which makes bible reading much more fulfilling. Loved.
Steve
The absolute best Bible study I have ever done. I didn't want to do this particular book since I am a guy and not really into OT stuff. Wow, was I amazed. Utterly amazing walk through Genesis. I learned a ton.
Melanie
This is my seventh study by Beth Moore and I like this one a lot because the study stayed in Genesis and focused on the people and stories of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
Jamie
My favorite bible study. Learned so much about the beginning of the bible. The characters of the bible became so real in this study. Highly recommend!
Lisa
In The Patriarchs Moore does a wonderful job on teaching the student about Jewish history from the Old Testament. Learn how God led Abraham, Issac and Jacob and how their faithfulness helped mold our world today.

I've done five or six Beth Moore studies, and this one was by far my favorite. It was just fantastic. I have always related a lot with Abraham and Joseph, but I was fascinated by what I learned and relearned about all of the patriarchs (and even less obvious figures like Judah) in doing this study. Beth Moore does a wonderful job of combining verse-by-verse study with personal relevance and theological insights. This is a must-read for anyone who appreciates her studies. For those who have not d...more

I have done 9 of Beth Moore's studies. This is by far my favorite. Beth brings a lot of fresh insight and knowledge into this Bible study.
Stephanie
It was amazing how much I learned when I thought I 'knew' these Bible stories I had heard from childhood!
Lyndsey
Awesome Bible study book. Learned so much about a book (Genesis) that i didn't really understand before

Learned to much more than I remember from growing up in Sunday School, about the Old Testament.
