"We preach Christ, warning people not to add to the Message. We teach in a spirit of profound common sense so that we can bring each person to maturity. To be mature is to be basic. Christ! No more, no less. That’s what I’m working so hard at day after day, year after year, doing my best with the energy God so generously gives me."
-Colossians 1:29, MSG

hi friends,
I'm so glad you stopped by and I hope you leave encouraged, inspired and empowered ... and I hope you come back for more! At The Basics With Beth, we are all about helping you do three things: get the basics, live the life and do the stuff!
As a believer for over 45 years, and as a pastor and Bible teacher for over 30 years, I've noticed something. People don't want hype or magic-bullet sermons -- and they don't need great sounding theories; they deserve the basic, practical, proven and time-tested wisdom that comes from God's Word.
These are the things that transformed my life. I started off as a good Catholic girl with an idyllic childhood -- but when I was eight years old, my little heart was broken as my parents split up and eventually divorced. As the oldest of four sisters, I felt the weight of helping my mom raise my sisters and all of that took its toll. When I was nineteen years old, I came into a personal relationship with Jesus and when He entered the scene, not only did He save, heal and restore my life -- He saved and blessed my family, too! My parents, step-parents and all of my sisters all came to Christ and God began a wonderful work of restoring a very broken-hearted family. Since that time, knowing Jesus, learning the Bible basics and laying a strong foundation of God's Word in my heart has been the very thing that God's used to elevate my life in every area -- including, my marriage, family and ministry -- so that's why I am passionate about bringing these basics to everyone who will listen!
So, whether you are living the dream or filled with big dreams, or on the struggle-bus with a broken-heart, I'm here to help you get the Bible basics; and to encourage you to live the life God has planned for you; and to empower you to do the stuff God has called you to do.
Here are just a few things I know the Bible basics will do for you ...
- I know the big life you will experience when you eat and drink the basics of God's Word. (Revelation 22:17)
- I know what a strong foundation in the Bible basics will do to improve your life and walk with the Lord. (Luke 6:46-49)
- I know the stability you will experience when you are loaded with the wisdom of God's Word. (Isaiah 33:6)
- I know the peace of mind you will experience. (Isaiah 26:3)
-I know the legacy difference you will experience in your family and circle of friends. (Psalm 127, Proverbs 31)
- I know the success and wholeness you will find in your spirit, soul and body. (3 John 2)
- I know you will be empowered to teach others the Bible basics. (Hebrews 5:12)
- I know you will be equipped to make disciples and fulfill Jesus great commission. (Matthew 28:18-20)
-I know the joy God's Word will bring to your heart and life! (Jeremiah 15:16)
