Point of View

A Fresh Look at Work, Faith, and Freedom

De: Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Candace Cameron Bure - introduction

Narrado por: Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Karissa Vacker

Recognized from her roles on Survivor, The View, and FOX & Friends, celebrity Elisabeth Hasselbeck presents a deeply intimate journey of faith, told through the important moments in her life.

"Point of view," by definition, is a particular attitude or way of considering a matter. Through her nearly two decades of broadcasting, Elisabeth learned the necessity of extracting the point of view of the person being interviewed on a particular topic or subject or experience. Doing so allows you to see issues and truths through another's eyes. It requires a shift in perspective to see the story through their lens.
In this illuminating book, Elisabeth walks through the times--from her national celebrity days to her newest role as CBO (Chief Breakfast Officer)--where she saw something differently than how God wanted her to, and the path back to His point of view was sometimes rocky but always revealing. Sometimes God's intentions for her were clear, yet other times she encountered situations so uncomfortable and blurry that she could only ask for His wisdom.
In this book, Elisabeth welcomes you into the many different, and often divergent, points of view that she has witnessed and learned from along the way. It is a journey that brought her to the ultimate point of view that she discovered in the Word of God--that until she sees herself as He sees her, she is not seeing at all. As you read through the pages here, she invites you to make the same discovery for yourself.

Great read

Loved it! E.H. beautifully and humbly illustrates God's grace and mercy through her stories and sheds light on how to love others as God loves us.

I enjoyed every bit of it!!

Open and wholehearted story, Thank you for sharing your life with us. Love that you are the narrator too😊

Excellent

I enjoyed hearing the story narrated by the author. She was honest & open about joy, struggles and God’s faithfulness through it all. It’s important to take time to hear His voice.

Really enjoyed this book. I would recommend it. Loved the stories. And bible verses. Loved it!

very good, but...

I love the Christian aspect of the book. it was extremely encouraging. The only thing I would say to Elisabeth is, You paint a really pretty picture of your struggles but you have to remember that you came from a privileged background, not because of your skin color because I am also Caucasian. You have been given much and much has been required of you. When financial burdens are absent from someone's life then the lessons and tragedies may not break you the way it does common people. Love you on every conservative platform, however I doubt you have had to live through poverty or abuse by a parent and the other dying in their 30s from alcoholism. So when you have this or similar background and you don't have endless amounts of money, there is a great percentage of people that you are not going to be able to relate from your perspective. Your silver spoon was a little too shiny at times in this book.
